Occupying a generous plot in the peaceful rural hamlet of Cheristow, close to the dramatic North Devon coastline and the sought-after village of Hartland, this detached four-bedroom bungalow represents an exciting opportunity for purchasers looking to create a distinctive home in a wonderfully unspoilt setting.

The property is of Woolaway construction and offers well-proportioned accommodation together with considerable scope for improvement, redevelopment or replacement, subject to obtaining all necessary planning permissions and consents. Its substantial plot, attractive outlook and views towards the sea provide an excellent foundation from which a purchaser could realise the property's full potential.

The existing accommodation is arranged on one level and includes four bedrooms, making it suitable for a variety of buyers and offering flexibility for those requiring additional guest accommodation, a home office or hobby space. Whilst the property would benefit from modernisation, it is the combination of its setting, grounds and future possibilities that makes this such an intriguing proposition.

Outside, the bungalow sits within generous gardens and grounds, creating a pleasing sense of space and privacy. The size of the plot may provide opportunities to reconfigure or extend the existing accommodation, or potentially pursue a more comprehensive redevelopment of the site, all subject to the relevant permissions.

A particular feature is the property's coastal outlook, with sea views reinforcing the feeling of being in one of North Devon's most naturally beautiful and wonderfully rural locations.

Cheristow enjoys a tranquil countryside setting close to Hartland, a characterful village with a strong local community and a range of everyday amenities. The surrounding Hartland Peninsula is renowned for its spectacular coastline, rugged scenery and access to the South West Coast Path, making the area especially appealing to those seeking a permanent residence, lifestyle move or coastal retreat.

Nb: Prospective purchasers should be aware that the property is of Woolaway construction and are advised to make their own enquiries regarding construction type, suitability for lending and any proposed alterations or redevelopment. Any references to development potential are strictly subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission, building regulations approval and other relevant consents. The property also comes with an Agricultural tie restricting buyers to be within the district of Torridge and to work in Agriculture.
