ATTRACTIVE PRICE - The property is just a short, level walk from Instow’s golden sandy beach, which at low tide extends to over 200 acres - perfect for long walks and ideal for dog owners.
A three double-bedroom coastal home situated in the highly sought-after village of Instow, enjoying an excellent position within level walking distance of all local amenities, including the pub, restaurants, shop, and beach. This property would make an ideal holiday home, a lucrative holiday let, or a perfect UK coastal base.
The property offers fantastic potential and would benefit from some cosmetic modernisation, presenting an excellent opportunity to create a truly impressive living space. To the front, a small storm porch provides access to the entrance and into a well-proportioned lounge, which flows through to an open-plan kitchen and dining area. The dining space comfortably accommodates a 4–6 seater table, and the kitchen offers scope to be reconfigured into a superb entertaining area.
Upstairs, the property features three generously sized double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and benefits from built-in storage cupboards. The second bedroom is another good-sized double, also with built-in storage, one of which houses the boiler. The third bedroom is equally well-proportioned. A family bathroom with a coloured suite completes the first floor and would benefit from modernisation.
Externally, the property truly comes into its own. The plot is a generous size, wrapping around the side of the house (beneath the bedrooms and alongside the kitchen), offering exciting potential for extension or further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Both the front and rear gardens are predominantly laid to lawn. The rear garden is enclosed by a stone wall and includes a pedestrian access gate. There is ample allocated parking within the close, along with a garage located en bloc.
AGENT NOTE - Ownership within White House Close also includes a 1/22nd share in the residents’ association, which manages the communal areas, including sand clearance and maintenance of shared lawns. A modest management fee applies, along with regular AGM meetings. For further details, please contact the Bideford team.
