The ground floor comprises two bright and spacious reception rooms. The main living room features a box bay window that brings in excellent natural light, along with a recently installed eco log burner that creates a warm and inviting focal point. The second reception room also benefits from generous natural light and flexible use. The kitchen enjoys a pleasant outlook and includes a dedicated dining area suitable for everyday meals and entertaining. A separate WC completes the ground floor layout.
Upstairs, the accommodation includes two double bedrooms, one single bedroom and a family bathroom fitted with a rain shower and panel bath. There is also an additional separate WC on this level.
Outside, the property provides off-road parking and a small rear slabbed patio that offers a low-maintenance outdoor space ready for personal touches. Character features can be found throughout the home, adding warmth and charm. The EPC rating is D and the property falls within Council Tax Band B.
Church Road is well connected to local schools, bus routes and everyday amenities. Ilfracombe Harbour, with its coastal walks, café culture and seaside atmosphere, is within easy reach. The nearby High Street offers a variety of shops and restaurants, and Bicclescombe Park provides accessible green space for outdoor leisure. Regular bus services run to Barnstaple and surrounding villages, with onward rail connections from Barnstaple to Exeter and beyond.
Viewings are warmly welcomed for this characterful property with great potential in a sought-after Ilfracombe location.
Ilfracombe is a historic Victorian seaside resort and provides shopping facilities as well as other amenities such as banks, library, post office, schools, cinema etc. There are a number of attractions within walking distance including Damien Hirst's now famous Verity statue situated on the harbour, the award-winning Ilfracombe Aquarium, the unique Tunnels Beaches and many more. You will find numerous events and festivals throughout the year, many based on the quayside at the historic harbour and at the prestigious Landmark Theatre on the seafront. There are many fine and award-winning beaches close by, from secluded coves to wide stretches of golden sand with crashing surf. For a unique beach experience visit 'The Tunnels' in Ilfracombe, holders of a blue flag and seaside award or Hele Bay, to the east of the town, also award winners, for good bathing and rock pool exploring. Putsborough, Woolacombe and Croyde are within easy motoring distance, whilst North Devon's regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 20 minutes' driving time.
