Whites Lane, Barnstaple

No.2 Whites Lane is unique in that there is no equivalent property in the immediate local area. The imaginative 2015 transformation was designed and managed by its Architect owner to make the most of the building and setting. Externally it remains its traditional feel of a smartly presented cottage, yet internally it offers contemporary living with great views towards the River Taw.

No.2 Whites Lane is a two bedroom cottage and is the end of a terrace of 3 cottages. The cottage dates from the late 19th century and the block of 3 it is part of was originally built for workers of Pilton House. A single storey extension was added to the rear in the 198-'s along with the general refurbishment works. The cottage was completely renovated, extended and transformed in 2015 by the current owners with everything aside from external walls, stairs and first floor carcass being replaces, that means the property is essentially a new built and complies with current building regulations. The property is coming to the market for the first time in a generation and is a rare opportunity to have a truley unique home with flexible spaces full of character.
