4 bed detached house for sale

Hillsborough, Landcross, Bideford EX39

For those who like period properties, this is a very exciting opportunity to acquire an impressive wing of a former Victorian Gentleman’s residence situated in the quiet hamlet of Landcross which has a lovely rural feel whilst only being within a short drive of Bideford.

This property offers plenty of living space over its 3 impressive floors and also has an impressive amount of outside space too. Some fine countryside views can be enjoyed from the residence, making this a great place to bring up children or for couples to relax in and enjoy.

The house is approached via a shared drive which gives access to the Garage which belongs to the property as well the 4 parking spaces which come with the house.

The house, itself, is accessed by the extensive, brand new Conservatory which provides a wonderful space from which to admire the grounds and the wooded surrounds. Progressing into the property, a charming Living Room will be found on your left hand side which has an impressive bay window and a cosy open fire which has a marble surround. On your right is the newly fitted contemporary Kitchen which features an attractive range of eye and base level cabinets with matching drawers. The sale of the house will include an impressive Colchester 5-ring cooker. The Kitchen also has space for all the usual domestic appliances.

On the First Floor there is the spacious, dual aspect Main Bedroom which takes in the best of the views. There is also a sumptuous Bathroom on this level with a roll top bath.

On the Upper Level there is a further dual aspect Bedroom that is identical in proportion to Bedroom 1. It is currently utilised as a second Living Room / occasional Bedroom. There is also a Shower Room on this level as well as Bedrooms 3 and 4 which are a little smaller but could be amalgamated into one larger room, if desired.

The main house is approached via a pedestrian wrought iron gate and crazy paved path. There is plenty of space to sit out in this area to the front of the house which features stone chipped garden terraces and lawned areas that have been prettily arranged and well-stocked with a wealth of flowers, shrubs, soft fruits and bushes.

Beyond the Garage is a further separate garden area that is of an impressive size and provides additional outside space to be cultivated as desired. This garden area can best be viewed from our aerial photos.

We would highly recommend a viewing of this property to appreciate both the scope of the house and the pleasant ambience of the surroundings.
