Situated in the highly desirable Taw Wharf development in the heart of Barnstaple, this outstanding five-bedroom townhouse offers spacious and versatile living, with stunning views stretching up the River Taw.

Arranged over four floors, the property provides generous accommodation throughout.
The ground floor features a double tandem garage incorporating a useful utility room to the rear, and driveway parking for an additional vehicle to the front.
The main living accommodation is found on the first floor, where a fully integrated kitchen flows seamlessly into a spacious dining area and onward into the bright and airy open-plan living room.
From here, bi-fold doors open onto a private balcony, perfectly positioned to enjoy the beautiful river views.
The property offers five well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the master bedroom benefiting from an en suite shower room, built-in wardrobe space, and its own private balcony.
Bedroom two also enjoys access to a balcony, while two stylish family bathrooms serve the remaining bedrooms.
Taw Wharf remains one of Barnstaple’s most exclusive and sought-after addresses, offering a peaceful riverside setting combined with the convenience of town centre living.
This superb property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and stylish home in an exceptional location, and early viewing is highly recommended.
