Description

Nestled within a sought after cul-de-sac in Westacott, lies a hidden gem, a spacious 4-bedroom detached house that promises the perfect blend of suburban tranquility and convenient access to local amenities. This property is an ideal location for those seeking a peaceful retreat that remains connected to the vibrancy of town life.

As you approach the residence, the attached double garage and a driveway capable of accommodating 2 vehicles greet you, setting the stage for the ample space that defines this home. A generously sized kitchen and separate dining room provides an intimate space for meals and gatherings. The living room, a great size, is perfect for relaxation and family time. The utility room adds a layer of practicality to the ground floor and gives internal access into the double garage.

On the first floor you will discover 4 well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite and a dressing room, providing a touch of luxury and privacy, while the family bathroom stands ready to accommodate the daily routines of a bustling household.

Step outside to the south-facing rear garden, where a patio area offers a seamless transition from indoors to the outdoors, leading to a lawn that invites leisurely afternoons under the sun. The garden's privacy ensures a sense of seclusion.

While this property holds immense potential, it is a canvas awaiting the brushstrokes of a new owner, with some areas in need of updating to unlock its full promise. Offered with no onward chain, this home is poised for a swift transition to those eager to infuse it with their personal touch and create their dream dwelling.
From Barnstaple continue out of town along Eastern Avenue and at the roundabout by Tescos turn left into Whiddon Drive. Follow this road into Westacott and take the last turning on the right into Kestrel Way and follow the road round to the left and No. 11 will be found on the right hand side with number plate displayed.
