Ft of versatile, single-storey accommodation, generous gardens, an attractive countryside outlook, Garage and extensive driveway parking.

With 3 genuine double Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms and generous reception accommodation, there is plenty of room for family life, visiting friends and relatives, working from home or simply enjoying the additional space that a move to the countryside can provide.

A feature inset lpg fire creates an attractive focal point whilst doors connect the living accommodation with the impressive Conservatory.
The large garden Conservatory is a particularly appealing feature of Wild Acres.

The modern fitted Kitchen incorporates an extensive range of units together with Bosch appliances and is complemented by a useful separate Utility Room.
3 double bedrooms & 2 bathrooms There are 3 well-proportioned double Bedrooms, all benefiting from high quality fitted wardrobes and providing excellent storage.
The accommodation is served by both a spacious Bathroom and separate Shower Room, creating a practical arrangement for families, couples and visiting guests.
The combination of 3 genuine double Bedrooms and 2 Bathrooms also gives the property considerably wider appeal than a conventional retirement bungalow.
Generous gardens & countryside outlook The outside space is one of the defining features of Wild Acres.
The property occupies a generous plot with established gardens, extensive lawns, mature planting and attractive borders, providing plenty of space for entertaining, children, pets or simply enjoying the surroundings.
To the rear, the garden enjoys an attractive outlook towards the surrounding North Devon countryside, reinforcing the feeling of space and providing the rural setting many buyers moving to this part of Devon are seeking.
An ornamental pond with fountain adds further interest to the garden whilst the timber summerhouse and workshop provide useful additional space and both benefit from power.
Exceptional parking and garage A substantial driveway provides extensive off-road parking for up to 6 vehicles.
For buyers enjoying an outdoor or coastal lifestyle, the amount of parking is particularly useful, with space capable of accommodating a motorhome, caravan or boat in addition to everyday vehicles.
The Integral Garage provides further parking, workshop or storage space and benefits from power, lighting and an electric roller door.
