Owner's comments

"We bought this house when we first moved to Devon and we have loved every minute here! The location is perfect for us. The village of Northam has a couple of shops, pubs and good take aways, the perfect blend of quiet and convenience. The street itself is quiet as the road is not a through road, meaning minimal traffic comes past. Our neighbours have been perfect! There's a range of ages on the street and everyone is really friendly. A nice stroll one way will take us to Westward Ho! And a walk the other way will take us to Appledore. Both absolutely stunning and have their own selection of pubs, bars and restaurants. Bideford is a 5 minute drive away and Barnstaple, roughly 20 minutes drive and there is a regular bus to take you to both. The best bit about the location is the proximity to the beach! The lovely beaches of Westward Ho! And Greysands beach are around a 20 minute walk away, with Northam Burrows Country Park being even closer. Both beaches are excellent for surfing and swimming and we have spent countless evenings there, going for a sunset dip. Greysands beach is dog friendly all year round and our dog has had the time of his life there. You can see the beach from our bedroom window.

The house is light, airy and spacious, and we fell in love with it instantly. The rooms are all a really good size and all have big windows to make the most of the views and the light. The house has some lovely original features from the 1960s, our favourite being the original parquet flooring in the hallway, which we have just restored. We have had lots of family and friends stay over and the space the house provides is perfect for entertaining. We love the kitchen diner for cooking big meals and hosting family and friends. The garden is south facing and has sunshine all day. We enjoy making the most of this sun trap by eating outside in the summer. It also has enough room for 3 cars if required. We absolutely love this house and have many happy memories there. It's a lovely home in a beautiful area and i'm sure it will make someone very happy, as it has for us."

Accommodation

As you enter in through the front door, there is a welcoming atmosphere to the hallway which is laid with original parquet flooring. Stairs rise to the first floor, while the sitting room is to the right and at the front of the home - a charming and spacious room filled with light. Straight ahead at the end of the hallway is the family bathroom with a WC wash hand basin and a bath with a shower over. While bedroom three is a substantial double with window overlooking the rear garden from the ground floor. The kitchen is fitted with an array of storage cupboards, plenty of work surface areas, as well as space for appliances such as a dishwasher and a large cooker with five ring electric hob. Double doors slide open to the spacious dining room, allowing for a sociable open plan space with a bright double aspect, but equally can be closed off to enjoy a more cosy feel to the room. Completing the accommodation downstairs is the utility area to the side of the kitchen. Here there is more space for appliances, such as a freestanding fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. There is a door at either end accessing both the front and the rear garden - perfect for those with dogs with sandy paws from a walk at the beach, without needing to come through the main house.

Upstairs there are a further two double bedrooms. The large landing is illuminated by another bright window opening to the front aspect, making for a lovely space to read a book or even arrange a small space for a desk to work from. Bedroom one benefits from distant views of the beach, a fitted wardrobe, eaves storage and an ensuite facility comprising a WC, wash hand basin and an enclosed shower cubicle. Bedroom two is also another double room and features a lovely double aspect, more fitted wardrobes, and further access to eaves storage.

Outside & parking

To the front, there is a neat walled boundary with some neatly maintained and established shrubbery for decoration, and in turn, creating an inviting approach to the home. There is a courtyard style garden to the rear, where there is also space to park around three vehicles. This low maintenance space is a real sun trap with a pleasant seating area, and an array of potted plants along with some small shrubs. The courtyard is fully enclosed, great for pets and children, with large wooden gates opening to allow ample space for parking.

Location

The property is well positioned in a popular residential location towards the end of a no-through road, and just off the centre of the desirable coastal village of Northam. Northam itself is a charming village situated on the North Devon coast, offering a delightful blend of history, natural beauty, and community spirit. The village offers a convenience store and newsagents along with a doctor’s and dentist surgery, primary schooling and a swimming pool/gym which is just a two minute walk from the property. The nearby Northam Burrows Country Park provides endless dog walks and mind-freeing strolls, and is also home to the Royal North Devon Golf Course. A popular spot for families, retirees and professionals, Northam offers residents a quieter alternative to the more well known coastal locations but is within walking distance of both Westward Ho! And Appledore. Also close by, and connected by a regular bus service, is the historic port town of Bideford, which provides a wider range of facilities including a number of locally owned and operated shops, eateries, banks, a post office, secondary schooling and supermarket shopping. The A39 provides a convenient route to Barnstaple, with High Street shopping and the Tarka rail line to Exeter in the South. From here, the A39 links up with the A361 to Tiverton, where there is a direct rail connection to London Paddington. To the West of Bideford, and further along the A39 is Bude, the gateway to the North Cornwall coast.
