Accommodation
The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall, where stairs rise to the first floor and a door leads into the principal living accommodation. The sitting room is a bright and welcoming space, enjoying excellent natural light through an attractive circular bay window to the front aspect. This comfortable room flows seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen and dining area, which has been thoughtfully opened up by the current owners to create a contemporary and highly sociable living environment, complemented by refinements such as modern radiators and light fittings. The dining area provides ample space for a table and chairs and benefits from double doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces and a dual aspect with the bay window at the front. The kitchen has been stylishly upgraded and is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base storage cupboards and drawers, complemented by generous work surface areas and a stainless-steel sink and drainer positioned beneath a window overlooking the rear garden. Further features include an electric oven with gas hob and extractor canopy above, integrated fridge and freezer, space for a washing machine and additional appliances, and a cupboard housing the gas combination boiler.
To the first floor, the landing provides access to all three bedrooms. There are two comfortable double bedrooms, positioned to the front and rear aspects respectively, while the third bedroom overlooks the front and would make an ideal nursery, children’s bedroom or home office. A useful airing cupboard is located above the stairwell. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom, fitted with a white suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and panelled bath with shower over.
Outside & parking
To the front of the property, a pleasant lawned garden sits beneath the bay window, creating an attractive and green approach to the home that is simple to maintain. A spacious brick-paved driveway provides ample off-road parking.
The rear garden is fully enclosed by fencing, creating a safe environment for children and pets. Access is available from both the kitchen and the dining area, with a hard-standing patio adjoining the rear of the property and providing an excellent space for outdoor seating and entertaining. Beyond this, the garden continues into a generous shingled area, attractively bordered by a wide variety of established shrubs, colourful planting and decorative pots that provide year-round interest. A useful timber storage shed offers practical storage, while a paved seating area tucked away in the far corner creates a particularly cosy and inviting spot to relax and enjoy the garden. Spacious side access further enhances the practicality of this charming and well-maintained outdoor space, along with useful additions such as an outside tap.
Location
Cross Close is situated within an established residential estate, positioned within little over a five minute drive of Instow beach as well as Fremington Quay and the Tarka Trail, which is popular among cyclists, runners as well as walkers and those with four legged friends. The house itself benefits from a quiet a tucked away spot, towards the very back of a cul-de-sac and backing onto privately owned woodland. A useful 'Co-op' corner shop & Post Office is less than a 10 minute walk away too, alongside the award winning Graylings fish & chip takeaway. A bus stop is within a short walk of the property, with a regular service (every 15 minutes) to the train station and Barnstaple town centre while in the opposite direction, to Bideford via Fremington and Instow. In addition within this desirable and convenient village of Fremington, there is a primary school, very popular cafe/heritage centre at Fremington Quay, doctor's surgery, numerous play areas, football pitch & sports centre and two public houses - The New Inn and The Fox. Barnstaple town centre is accessible in around a 10 minute drive, along with numerous high street shops, supermarkets, department stores, eateries and leisure facilities. The popular sandy surfing beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are within around 20-30 minutes drive, as is the border of Exmoor National Park. Along the A361, Tiverton Parkway train station with fast services to London Paddington can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, as can the M5 network and beyond, also from Junction 27 at Tiverton. Other notable areas for further shopping include Exeter in around an hour's drive, and the Cornish border is reached within about a 40 minute drive along the A39.
