Portland Street, Barnstaple, Devon, EX32 9JL

Behind its attractive period façade, this is a home that balances character with thoughtful modern updates. The interiors feel bright and welcoming throughout, with the ground floor opening into one generous living space that suits both everyday family life and entertaining. Positioned within easy reach of Barnstaple town centre and close to Newport Primary School, it offers the convenience of town living without compromising on space. The front living room is a comfortable retreat, easily accommodating two large sofas, a coffee table and substantial media furniture. It flows seamlessly into the dining area, creating one sociable open-plan space where a family dining table sits naturally alongside feature furniture. The decorative fireplace, built-in shelving and high ceilings give the room plenty of personality, while the open layout allows the space to adapt just as well to relaxed evenings as it does to hosting friends and family. To the rear, the recently fitted kitchen has been finished in a timeless shaker style with extensive worktop space, generous storage, a large sink and room for a range cooker. There is ample space for freestanding appliances, while the stable-style rear door and large window fill the room with natural light and provide direct access to the courtyard. Beyond the kitchen, a useful external storage room offers excellent space for bikes, tools or outdoor equipment. The first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, comfortably fitting a king-size bed with bedside tables, whilst still leaving plenty of space for additional furniture. A full wall of fitted wardrobes provides exceptional storage. The second bedroom is another genuine double with room for a double bed, wardrobes and drawers, making it ideal for guests or the family. The third bedroom is a versatile single that currently works perfectly as a home office but would also make an excellent nursery or child's bedroom. Completing the accommodation is a modern shower room with a large walk-in shower, WC and vanity storage. Outside, the enclosed rear courtyard offers a low-maintenance outdoor space that's perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks, with gated rear access adding everyday practicality. On-street parking is available to the front of the property. With two generous double bedrooms, a flexible third bedroom, an impressive open-plan reception space, a stylish new kitchen and a location within walking distance of Barnstaple town centre, this is a home that combines period charm with modern living in equal measure.
