Description

Deceptively spacious first-floor apartment in the heart of Braunton, just steps from local amenities. Features include a large dual-aspect living room, stylish kitchen with access to a private balcony, three generous bedrooms (one with en-suite), and off-road parking. Rarely available—early viewing advised!

Welcome to this deceptively spacious three-bedroom first-floor apartment, ideally located in the very centre of Braunton village. Just a short stroll from all local amenities, this property offers the rare convenience of off-road parking directly beside the private entrance.

Upon entry, a staircase leads to a generous hallway with ample space for coats and shoes. At the far end, the apartment opens into a bright and airy living room, boasting a dual aspect and flowing seamlessly into a beautifully presented kitchen. This stylish kitchen features sleek, contemporary cabinetry, glossy black worktops, and a striking red tiled splashback that adds character and contrast. From here, step out onto a large private balcony, perfect for alfresco dining or simply enjoying the sun.

The apartment offers three well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a modern en-suite shower room with attractive tiling, while bedroom two is a spacious double. Bedroom three, although with some reduced headroom, comfortably accommodates a double bed and additional furniture.

Apartments of this size, with both parking and a private balcony, are a rare find in such a central location. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this property has to offer.
