Read the full agent description
Offered to the market with no onward chain, Hillbury, a four-bedroom detached bungalow on Old Torrington Road, presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to put their own stamp on a home with huge potential. Nestled in sought-after Sticklepath, the property enjoys excellent access to Barnstaple town centre and sits conveniently along the 21 bus route, making it ideal for families and commuters alike.
From the road, the property is discreetly set behind mature hedging and a generous wooden gate, opening onto an extensive tarmac driveway that provides parking for multiple vehicles with ease, alongside a substantial garage. A separate shed and summer house complete the impressive range of outbuildings, offering fantastic scope for storage, hobbies, or further development.
Stepping inside, the well-proportioned kitchen is fitted with cream shaker-style cabinetry, a stone tile splashback, a gas range and a dark slate-effect tiled floor, with a door leading out to the side of the property and views across the garden. The bright, open-plan living and dining area is bathed in natural light, featuring a charming fireplace and timber flooring that add warmth and character. Just off this space is a generously sized bedroom, offering ample room for freestanding furniture.
The four bedrooms are all comfortable doubles, with the principal bedroom offering a particularly impressive footprint. The family bathroom is neatly appointed with a panelled bath with a shower over, a vanity unit and part-tiled walls. A separate WC adds practical convenience for busy households.
Outside, the property truly comes into its own. A generous wrap-around garden surrounds the bungalow, offering lawned areas, established planting and a real sense of privacy and space that is rarely found with properties of this type. With some cosmetic updating and landscaping, this outdoor space has the potential to become a wonderful family garden.
With some modernisation, this is a property that could be transformed into an exceptional family home in a well-connected and highly desirable location. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
