About
A fantastic opportunity to purchase a beautifully presented, recently refurbished FOUR -bedroom detached home in a highly sought-after location in Instow.
Occupying a prominent position with wonderful estuary views, the property offers generous driveway parking for up to three vehicles within an enclosed yard and is just a short, mostly level walk from Instow’s beautiful beach, seafront, popular pubs and restaurants.
The versatile accommodation lends itself particularly well to multi-generational living, while its location and low-maintenance nature also make it an ideal “lock-up-and-leave” second home or coastal retreat.
With its combination of estuary views, excellent parking, recently updated accommodation and enviable proximity to everything Instow has to offer, this is a superb opportunity in one of North Devon’s most desirable coastal villages.
The ever-popular village of Instow perfectly epitomises North Devon as the rolling countryside meet the coast.
The village itself boasts a glorious, sandy riverside beach, backed by dunes, popular among families, dog walkers and water-sports enthusiasts alike.
Offering a plethora of award-winning restaurants, cafes, and a well-regarded local delicatessen, could also be considered a foodie’s paradise.
There is a popular Yacht club, access to the Tarka trail for walkers and cyclists and a pedestrian ferry to Appledore during the summer months too.
There is a primary school in the village, convenient access to nearby secondary schooling and further education in the surrounding towns of Barnstaple, Bideford and Torrington.
The village also provides excellent transport links with a regular bus service to both Barnstaple and Bideford whilst the A39 is also close to hand.
Additional nearby beaches include Westward Ho!, Saunton, Croyde, Woolacombe & Putsborough, all are within a short drive along with Bude which is approximately 30 miles distant.
Barnstaple, the regional centre of North Devon, offers a wider range of amenities, high street shopping, a rail link to Exeter in the South and a convenient route to Tiverton, where there is a direct rail link to London.
The M5 motorway is also easily accessible via the A361 and provides a network to the rest of the country. Nearby airports include Exeter and Newquay, both of which are within a 2-hour drive.
