We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Occupying a quiet, tucked away position within a popular residential area close to Northam village, this well-maintained 2 Bedroom semi-detached bungalow presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a comfortable and manageable home.
Whether as a retirement property or a compact residence, Number 5 Skern Way offers practical single-level living with scope to personalise to taste.
The accommodation is arranged off a central Entrance Hall and includes a spacious Lounge with a large rear garden facing sliding patio door, and a feature fireplace with fitted gas fire, creating a warm and welcoming focal point.
The Kitchen is fitted with a range of units and is bathed in natural light from front and side facing windows.
There are 2 good sized Bedrooms and a modern white Bathroom suite completes the internal layout.
The property benefits from double glazing and a gas fired central heating system via a boiler installed just a couple of years ago, offering efficient and reliable warmth throughout.
While the décor and fittings are clean and well-cared for, buyers may wish to modernise certain aspects to suit individual preferences.
Outside, both the front and rear gardens have been designed with ease of maintenance in mind.
The rear garden enjoys a pleasant, enclosed feel with space for seating or planting, while the front is attractively presented and complements the property’s quiet setting.
Skern Way is conveniently located within easy reach of the amenities in Northam, including a supermarket, post office, health centre and other everyday services.
The town of Bideford lies just a short drive away, offering a wider range of shops and facilities.
Coastal spots, such as Westward Ho!, Appledore and Instow are all within easy reach, making this an ideal base to enjoy everything the area has to offer.
Clearly this has been a well-loved home as we last sold it to the current owner almost three decades ago (previous brochure included in the pictures)! Contact us today to arrange a viewing.
