The property comes to the market for the first time having been originally built in 1925 as a 'workman's cottage' and subsequently extended, this will be found to be a most appealing property which offers well proportioned accommodation and is complimented well with generous gardens.

Weare Giffard is a picturesque yet unusually long and narrow village that stretches for a mile or so along the banks of the River Torridge and is approx. 4 miles from the Port and Market town of Bideford and 3 miles from Great Torrington.

The village has a good community spirit with local pub, church and village hall. There is an access point to the Tarka Trail just as you come off the A386 at Annery Kiln.

Access to the North Devon Link Road is within 5 miles, North Devon's principle town of Barnstaple approx. 15 miles whilst the M5 Motorway connection just north of Tiverton is some 50 miles distant.

SERVICES: Mains water, electricity and gas. Private drainage. Gas fired central heating. To the most part the property benefits from double glazed windows which are a mix of upvc and wooden framed units.

COUNCIL TAX BAND: C

TENURE: Freehold.

DIRECTIONS TO FIND: From Bideford proceed south as towards Torrington and after almost 3 miles turn left as signposted to Weare Giffard. Passing under the old railway bridge and crossing over the river. Continue on this road and as the road climbs a Spanish styled bungalow (called Summer Place) will be seen on your right-hand side and the entrance to the property is almost opposite (entrance is slightly hidden).
