Chequers Estate Agents are delighted to present 24 Mount Pleasant, Bishops Tawton – a much-loved home coming to the market for the first time since new in 1973. Perfectly positioned at the top of the hill within a much sort after prime cul-de-sac location, the property enjoys unrivalled panoramic views of Taw Valley and Tawstock Castle, with Saunton Sands Hotel visible in the distance. The property offers a light-filled living room, well proportioned kitchen, three generous bedrooms and beautifully landscaped tiered gardens. With the added benefit of a large balcony, private driveway and double garage, this is a rare opportunity not to be missed. The property also benefits from no onward chain.
Coming to the market for the very first time since it was built in 1973, this much-loved home is offered with no onward chain and presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property in one of Barnstaple’s most desirable residential settings. Positioned peacefully at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy, light and space, together with outstanding far-reaching views. Lovingly cared for over the years, the home offers generous and well-balanced accommodation arranged to maximise both practicality and comfort.
Inside, the accommodation is light, spacious and thoughtfully arranged. The welcoming entrance hallway offers access to all principal rooms, with exposed wood flooring adding a touch of warmth and character. The living room is a particularly impressive space, flooded with natural light from its front-facing UPVC window which frames far-reaching views. This well-proportioned room provides a calm and comfortable setting for family living and entertaining alike. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units offering ample storage and preparation space, complemented by matching wall cabinets. A stainless steel sink is set beneath a rear-facing UPVC window overlooking the landscaped garden, while there is space and plumbing for appliances including a washing machine, cooker and fridge-freezer. The kitchen also benefits from a useful larder cupboard and direct access to the rear garden.
The property provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed to make the most of their natural light and outlooks. The principal bedroom is a generous double with dual-aspect windows overlooking the side and rear gardens, creating a wonderfully private and peaceful retreat. The second bedroom is equally appealing, offering another spacious double that enjoys breathtaking panoramic view. This is a room that perfectly captures the charm of the setting. The third bedroom, currently arranged as a single, is a versatile space ideally suited as a child’s bedroom, dining room or home office, with a side-facing window allowing in plenty of light. Serving the bedrooms is a family bathroom with a panelled bath and shower over, along with a separate cloakroom for additional convenience.
The approach to the property is particularly attractive, with a paved driveway offering off-road parking and a lawned front garden with established shrubs. Steps lead to a generous balcony (21’ x 7’3), an exceptional feature of the home, providing ample space for seating and dining while taking in uninterrupted 180° views across rolling countryside- an idyllic spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. To the rear lies a beautifully landscaped and fully enclosed garden, designed to create a tranquil retreat. An extensive patio spans the width of the house, perfect for entertaining and alfresco dining, while tiered lawns, bordered by mature shrubs and planting, provide varied and picturesque areas to enjoy. At the top of the garden is a level lawn with spectacular panoramic views, a truly unique vantage point. Completing the outside space is a large double garage (21’0 x 16’9), fitted with up-and-over door, power and lighting, and housing the gas and electric meters - offering excellent storage and workshop potential.
This is a home that offers so much more than just a place to live – it is a lifestyle, providing peace, privacy, and breathtaking views, all within easy reach of Barnstaple town centre and the surrounding North Devon countryside and coastline.
