No onward chain. Situated in the highly sought-after Pilton area of Barnstaple, this deceptively spacious Grade II listed cottage is full of character and offers an exciting opportunity for a buyer to make it their own. With 2 double bedrooms, a separate study, a generous loft space and a low-maintenance rear garden, the property has plenty to offer those looking for a project in a well-regarded location.
On entering the cottage, the Living Room is positioned to the left. A sash window, feature fireplace and multi-fuel burning stove add to its character, with the stove also providing heat to the radiators.
To the rear, the Kitchen is fitted with a range of cupboards and drawers and includes an electric cooker point and a useful pantry. A door leads out to the courtyard-style garden which is easy to maintain and benefits from a brick-built store for firewood, garden equipment or general storage.
The first floor provides 2 double Bedrooms, a Study and a Shower Room fitted with a corner shower, WC and wash hand basin. Steps from the Study lead up to a particularly generous loft space with good head height. This offers potential for conversion, subject to the necessary planning and listed building consents.
Unrestricted on-street parking is available to the front of the property on a first-come, first-served basis.
