Red Maples, Barton Lane, Ilfracombe, EX34 9SU

To book your viewing, when calling quote reference: RY0585 Accommodation Stepping through the front door, a spacious entrance hall immediately showcases the scale and individuality of the home.

From here, access is provided to the principal accommodation, in addition to a useful storage cupboard and a family shower room fitted with a WC, wash hand basin, enclosed shower cubicle, and bidet.

Bedroom one is positioned to the right-hand side of the hallway and is a generous double room benefiting from a side aspect window and its own en-suite shower room comprising a WC, wash hand basin, and enclosed shower cubicle.

Bedroom two is also located on this upper level and enjoys a pleasant double aspect.

The kitchen/breakfast room provides space for a breakfast table and chairs and enjoys a window overlooking the spectacular rear outlook, in addition to a door accessing the adjoining patio area.

The kitchen itself is fitted with a range of wall and base cupboards and drawers, ample work surface areas, a one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer inset beneath the window, an eye-level double electric oven, induction hob with fitted extractor canopy over, and space for a counter-height fridge.

Adjoining the kitchen is a bright dual-aspect dining room enjoying the wonderful southerly-facing views, whilst also offering exciting potential to be opened into the kitchen to create a large open-plan kitchen/dining arrangement if desired.

Completing the upper floor is a substantial sitting room centred around an attractive gas fireplace, whilst another impressive double aspect frames the outstanding sea and valley views.

Sliding doors open directly onto the stone-paved balcony, creating a wonderful entertaining space perfectly suited to enjoying the elevated southerly outlook.

In a quirky and highly versatile arrangement, stairs descend from the sitting room to the lower ground floor accommodation.

Here, a further double bedroom enjoys another pleasant double aspect and leads through into an enormous reception space currently arranged as a snooker room.

This exceptionally flexible area could easily be adapted to create further living accommodation or an annex-style arrangement for independent relatives or guests.

From the snooker room, access is provided to a fourth bedroom with a door opening onto the covered veranda, whilst a fifth bedroom — currently serving a more practical purpose — could equally function as a workshop or hobby room and also houses the boiler.

A kitchenette area provides further flexibility and could serve as a utility room within a larger family home, or alternatively be adapted into a more permanent kitchen arrangement for dual occupation purposes.

Completing the lower ground floor is an additional bathroom fitted with a WC, wash hand basin, and a panelled bath with shower over.

Further enhancing the practicality of the home, a trapdoor from the snooker room accesses an extensive basement storage area beneath the property, whilst an additional covered greenhouse-style storage section provides access into another substantial storage room positioned beneath the patio.

Outside & parking To the front of the property, a tarmac driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a detached double garage accessed via two traditional up-and-over doors and connected to power and light, creating an ideal space for secure vehicle storage, hobbies, or workshop use.

The stone-paved balcony accessed from the sitting room is undoubtedly one of the home’s standout features, commanding breathtaking panoramic views across the valley, village rooftops, surrounding countryside, and out towards the sea and Welsh coastline beyond.

This elevated position creates a superb space for outdoor dining or relaxing with a morning coffee or evening glass of wine.

At lower ground floor level, a covered stone-paved veranda overlooks a slim section of garden and offers another sheltered seating area.

Steps descend through the gardens, which are predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by a wide range of mature hedgerows, shrubs, and established planting.

Whilst now slightly overgrown, the gardens offer fantastic potential to be further landscaped and opened up into a truly exceptional outdoor environment.
