Occupying a generous plot within the peaceful village of Fairy Cross, this spacious two-bedroom detached bungalow offers an exciting opportunity for buyers to place their own stamp on a property with tremendous potential.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a light and airy entrance hall that provides access to the principal living spaces. The dual aspect sitting room enjoys a pleasant outlook over the side garden and features ample space for comfortable seating arrangements.
Adjacent to the sitting room, the kitchen is of good proportions and offers scope for modernisation, with direct access onto the utility room and rear access to the garage offering space for additional storage or free-standing washing appliances..
There are currently two well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefitting from fitted wardrobes. In addition, a further versatile room currently used as a dining space offers the flexibility to be utilised as a third bedroom, home office, or hobby space, depending on requirements.
The family bathroom requires updating but offers a functional suite with scope to redesign to suit modern tastes.
Outside, the property truly comes into its own with an enclosed rear garden bordered by mature trees and colourful planting, providing a secluded area perfect for enjoying the outdoors. A large area of stone patio adjoins the rear offering further space for outside seating arrangements. To the side, a further area of garden offers additional space which could be landscaped or used for further extension (subject to planning).
Requiring comprehensive modernisation throughout, this bungalow represents a superb opportunity to create a wonderful home in a highly desirable North Devon village, only a short drive from Bideford town amenities and the beautiful coastline beyond.
