Located in an elevated position overlooking the River Taw and Bideford’s historic bridge, this spacious property enjoys a fantastic setting on the edge of one of North Devon’s most popular towns. The bustling centre of Bideford is less than half a mile away, where guests can explore independent shops, cafes, restaurants and the town’s rich maritime heritage. Chudleigh Fort sits on the hillside above the property. The estuary village of Instow, with its sandy beach and waterside eateries, and the golden sands and surf of Westward Ho! can be reached within 3 miles. The picturesque fishing village of Appledore is approximately 4 miles from the property, offering colourful streets, galleries and excellent places to eat. Walkers will also enjoy easy access to the South West Coast Path, approximately half a mile away, offering miles of spectacular coastal scenery and breathtaking sea views. The Tarka Trail, a traffic-free cycling/walking path, can be easily accessed within 300 metres. Combining town, coast, and countryside, this is an excellent base for exploring North Devon.

Designed in a reverse-level style to make the most of the exceptional outlook, the property offers comfortable and well-planned accommodation throughout. On the ground floor, you will find two inviting bedrooms, one with a king-size bed, the second with a super-king-size zip-and-link, which can be made up as 3 ft singles on request, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for families and groups alike. Also on the ground floor is a utility room that is ideal for storing outdoor gear and keeping holiday essentials organised. There is an additional downstairs toilet with a washbasin. From the utility room, the back door leads to a large back garden with a terrace and further seating area. Upstairs, the home opens into a bright and welcoming living space where the views across the River Taw and Bideford's famous bridge take centre stage. The well-equipped kitchen and dining area provide everything needed for a stress-free stay, with ample seating for relaxed family meals, leisurely breakfasts and evenings spent planning the next day's adventures. The lounge offers plenty of comfortable seating, creating a wonderful space to unwind while enjoying the ever-changing views across the river. Also on this floor are two bathrooms, one featuring a shower over the bath and WC, and another offering a separate shower and WC. Completing the accommodation is the third bedroom with a king-size bed.

Outside, the property continues to impress with a sizeable, beautifully landscaped garden to the front and rear, which has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both relaxation and enjoyment of the setting. The expansive lawn provides plenty of space to unwind, while multiple seating areas allow guests to follow the sun throughout the day, whether enjoying a morning coffee, an al fresco lunch or evening drinks overlooking the surrounding scenery. The stunning garden perfectly complements the property's elevated position, creating a peaceful retreat after a day spent exploring the North Devon coast. A private driveway provides convenient off-road parking for up to three cars, completing this welcoming holiday home.
