IN NEED OF FULL RENOVATION. A charming late 19th-century terraced village home set over three floors with fine estuary views.
Situation And Amenities - The property enjoys excellent views and is positioned in a central location within Appledore , which is renowned for its historic quay, intertwining cobbled streets, picturesque former fishermen's cottages and eminent annual book festival, in its 16th year, that attracts multiple celebrity guest speakers. There is an excellent range of local amenities including local shop/delicatessen, Post Office, various cafes, restaurants, pubs, fish & chip shops, galleries and craft shops. As well as a primary school, playground, churches and social club within walking distance, the village also has a public slipway, for those who enjoy sailing, canoeing or kayaking with gig racing a dominant sport. The Northam Burrows Country Park, Royal North Devon Golf Course and the brilliant sandy beach at Westward Ho! are all within 3 miles of the property with a range of shops and amenities. The nearby South West Coastal Path and Tarka Trail from Instow and Bideford offer excellent walks and stunning vistas of the picturesque North Devon coastline. Across the tidal estuary, Instow can be reached by one of two water taxis. It has a similar range of amenities as Appledore with the North Devon Yacht Club and beachfront looking across to Appledore.

First Floor - LIVING ROOM/POTENTIAL BEDROOM THREE is off the stairs and provides a spacious area for both family activities, as well as a comfortable living area .BEDROOM TWO is also located on the first floor with views out to the garden. Depending on arrangements this could be suitable for a double bedroom, two singles, a handy office, or second kitchen.
Second Floor - BEDROOM ONE is a large double dual aspect bedroom with potential for an en-suite bathroom. There are four Velux windows, one of which opens as a balcony window making the bedroom feel spacious and light.
