Having been a much loved personal holiday home for many years, this charming period property enjoys a prime location as it is above the tidal flood plain and has an uninterrupted view of the Bideford Bar and out to sea. The glorious sandy beach and the range of high quality restaurants, cafes and pubs that Instow offers are just moments away. For those seeking a more active lifestyle, the house also gives almost immediate access to the popular Tarka Trail as well as the Instow Yacht Club.
The Ground Floor comprises 2 spacious Reception Rooms with the Lounge featuring a fantastic bay window that takes in the best of the views and a wood burning stove. There is a well-proportioned Kitchen which, in turn, leads onto a useful Bathroom which has a cupboard housing the gas boiler.
There are 3 good size Bedrooms on the First Floor with the Main Bedroom at the front of the house being particularly impressive and offering 2 windows from which to take in the majestic outlook. This level also features an attractive Shower Room as well as boat steps that lead up to a generous Loft Room which is perfect for storage or as a hobby room but could be fully converted, subject to any necessary permissions and regulations. Bedroom 3 provides access to a lovely decked area which offers an elevated position from which to admire the attractive, fully enclosed rear garden which features lawned and low-maintenance chipping areas, ornamental trees and a storage shed. Beyond the rear garden are rolling green fields giving the house a great outlook to the rear as well as to the front. The garden is also accessible from the Dining Room.
This house also greatly benefits from having the option to rent an adjacent parking space from Christie Estates on a monthly basis at the cost of approximately £25.00 per month.
This fantastic home is available for sale with the distinct advantage of having no onward chain.Instow is an iconic village in North Devon perched at the point where the River Taw and River Torridge meet before joining the Atlantic Ocean – all within sight from most properties in the village. It also enjoys great views of its sister village Appledore on the opposite bank.
Wired into local transport links you can be in the heart of Bideford in minutes on the bus, and Barnstaple within 20 minutes. It has a primary school, a community hall and several churches including the interesting Italianate All Saints Chapel.
Instow has lots of places to moor a boat if you have one, and it has a handful of shops and great local restaurants. Locals make good use of the beach and the small yet severely eroded dune system close by (look out for the rare Pyramid Orchid when the season is right). The Tarka Trail runs through the heart of the village where the railway used to run. There’s still traces of the railway all around the village including the country’s only Grade I signal box. The film about yachtsman Donald Crowhurst – Deep Water was filmed in Instow in 2015.<br/><br/><b>Directions</b><br/>From Bideford Quay, and heading in the direction of Torrington, turn left and proceed over the Old Bridge and then take the left hand turning at the mini roundabout in the direction of Barnstaple. Continue along this road until you see the sign for Instow on your right hand side. Proceed a little bit further to where you will see a row of 4 brick-built terraced houses slightly elevated on your right hand side. There is a parking layby on the right shortly after the houses where a space should be available. One of our agents will meet you here to show you the property.
