Owner's comments

"We bought our bungalow for a number of reasons. It is peaceful being in a cul-de-sac meaning no passing traffic, a south west facing rear garden which is a sun trap. The rear garden is completely secure through locked access doors and a few minutes walk to shops, supermarket and many more services. The location is convenient for Barnstaple, the Link-Road and travel in all directions. Reluctantly we are selling to be nearer to our family."

Accommodation

The current owners have extended the property at the front with a very useful porch leading to the entrance hallway. From here you can access all three downstairs bedrooms, as well as the sitting room on the right. Stairs also rise to the first floor and the kitchen at the back of the home can also be found at the end of the hall. The first bedroom on the left is currently utilised as a dining area, while an identically sized bedroom adjacent is set up as an office. Bedroom two is a comfortable double room and is positioned at the back of the home with window overlooking the garden. The sitting room has a large window to the front aspect and features an electric fireplace as an ideal focal point to the room.

At the back of the hallway, the stairs are well lit from a window facing the rear, and there is a useful storage cupboard underneath the stairs. Rising up to the first floor, there are two further windows on the landing, presenting both the main bedroom which is another generous double and the main family bathroom. This comprises a WC, wash hand basin, and a bath with shower over and fully tiled surround. Additionally, from the landing is a store room, which has built-in cupboards, accesses the eaves which is fully boarded and the room also houses the condensing boiler.

At the back of the home, the kitchen has benefited from an upgrade in recent times, now equipped with high specification 'AEG' appliances to include a built in dishwasher, eye level double electric oven, induction hob and extractor canopy over. There is worktop space aplenty and a comprehensive amount of wall and base units for storage. In addition, there is space for a free standing fridge/freezer and ample room for a dining table and chairs. The kitchen flows into an adjoining conservatory, making for a pleasant seating area with streams of natural light coming in from three aspects. Double doors open onto a raised patio section of the garden, adding to the attractive and sociable nature of the space. From the kitchen, a single door also opens into a small inner lobby with further door into the garage, downstairs shower room and utility. Comprising a WC, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and an enclosed shower cubicle. The utility is a larger than average space, and handy for any good quality home - there is further storage cupboards and worktop space, along with a stainless steel sink/drainer. It also hosts space for a range of appliances such as a washing machine, tumble dryer and spare fridge/freezer. A door leads out onto a decked section with steps leading down to the garden.

Outside & parking

It is clear to see from the front of this home immaculate order it is presented in, of which continues through the property inside and out. The gated driveway can hold space for 3/4 vehicles, with a hard standing as well as a section lead to shingle. There is a half brick wall and picket fence border to the front, with a further walled boundary on one side wall fence on the other. There is a wonderful array of established shrubs and colourful plants within a raised flower bed border, making for a charming approach to the front of this home. Access to the garage can be found from the driveway for a traditional 'up and over' door, while the rear garden is accessed via a lockable pedestrian gate to the side.

The back garden itself has burst into life at this time of year, with an incredible variety of attractive potted plants, small mature trees and colourful shrubbery decorating this sunny south facing area. Stepping out from double doors at the conservatory onto a sociable patio with a pleasant seating area which captures the sun virtually all day long. The patio has a couple of small steps leading down to a pass that groups all the way round the garden, sprouting off to numerous well-designed sections. It's fair to say the current owners have spent many hours out here meticulously planning this glorious sunny space, to enjoy lots of vibrant colour and many areas to utilise. There is a raised and immaculately tended section of lawn central to the garden with water features adding some character to the garden. The summerhouse connected to power is in one corner, with a useful wooden shed for storage in the other. For anyone green fingered, this garden will be a true delight.

Location

Manor Park itself is a quiet no through road with three further cul-de-sacs. Number 6 is situated on the left towards the bottom of the first small branch of Manor Park. Positioned within a 10 minute walk of the renowned Anchor Woods and Tarka Trail, which is popular among cyclists, runners as well as walkers and those with four legged friends. Also just a few minutes flat walk is a Sainsbury's supermarket and Lidl, along with many other services and amenities at Roundswell industrial estate. A bus stop is within a few hundred yards of the property, with a regular service (every 15 minutes) to the train station and Barnstaple town centre and in the opposite direction, to Bideford via Fremington and Instow. In addition within this desirable residential district of Sticklepath, there is a well regarded primary school, award winning Pelican fish & chip takeaway & restaurant, Chinese takeaway, petrol station, North Devon's college for further education, Petroc, and two public houses - The Wrey Arms and The Cedars Inn Barnstaple town centre is accessible by foot in around 15-20 minutes, along with numerous high street shops, supermarkets, department stores, eateries and leisure facilities. The popular sandy surfing beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are within around 20-30 minutes drive, as is the border of Exmoor National Park. Along the A361, Tiverton Parkway train station with fast services to London Paddington can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, as can the M5 network and beyond, also from Junction 27 at Tiverton. Other notable areas for further shopping include Exeter in around an hour's drive, and the Cornish border is reached within about a 40 minute drive along the A39.
