5 bed terraced house for sale

Myrtle Street, Appledore, Bideford EX39

Situated close to the heart of the picturesque fishing village of Appledore, this elegant 3-storey Georgian style Grade II listed period home presents a rare and exciting opportunity. Properties of this size and setting are highly sought after, and what makes this one particularly special is the combination of an attractive front courtyard garden and a remarkably extensive rear lawned garden - something seldom found in the village where outside space is usually much more limited. The house itself offers generous accommodation but now requires significant modernisation, presenting the next owner with an excellent opportunity to carry out major improvements and transform it into a beautiful home in a location to be enjoyed for many years to come.

Stepping inside, the property opens with a welcoming Entrance Porch and Hallway leading through to 2 characterful Reception Rooms, both featuring sash windows and gas fires, one with a charming brick fireplace. The Kitchen is fitted with a range of eye and base level cabinets and drawers complemented by a double glazed window and roof light, and includes a De’Longhi cooker which is part of the sale. From here, a useful Utility Room provides additional space with plumbing for laundry appliances, along with a glazed door that opens onto the garden. The first floor offers 2 spacious Bedrooms, one to the front and one overlooking the rear, together with a Bathroom that includes a cabinet mounted wash hand basin, a WC, a small bath and a gas fired boiler for hot water. On the top floor, 3 further Bedrooms are found, with the fourth Bedroom being particularly generous in size and enjoying views over the rear garden, though some ceiling works will be required here.

The gardens are a real highlight of this home. To the rear, a lower courtyard area with an outside WC and storage shed leads up to an expansive enclosed lawn that stretches away behind the house, gently sloping upwards to a sunny patio area with additional space beyond - making it perfect for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. To the front, a charming courtyard garden provides kerb appeal and a welcoming approach, opening directly onto Myrtle Street where the bustling heart of Appledore is just a short stroll away, with its variety of shops, restaurants, bars and historic quay.

Available with the distinct advantage of no onward chain, this property combines period character, impressive space and the rare benefit of substantial gardens in one of North Devon’s most desirable coastal villages, making early viewing strongly advised to fully appreciate the potential it has to offer.
