4 bedroom bungalow for sale

A rare and exciting opportunity offered to the market for sale by public auction — this four-bedroom detached Woolaway bungalow sits on a substantial plot in a desirable semi-rural position, enjoying stunning countryside views with good access to the market town of Holsworthy.


Due to its non-standard construction, the property offers significant potential for redevelopment (subject to the necessary planning permissions), making it an ideal prospect for those looking to build a bespoke home or explore further development options.

The current accommodation includes a spacious kitchen with an oil-fired Rayburn Royal cooker, a generous living room with a log-burning stove, a bright conservatory with panoramic rural views, four well-proportioned bedrooms, and a family bathroom.

Externally, the bungalow occupies a large, mainly level plot offering good potential for redevelopment, off-road parking for multiple vehicles, a single garage, and a sizeable workshop/store.

Situated in a peaceful semi-rural location, the property combines the tranquillity of countryside living with the convenience of being just a short drive from the market town of Holsworthy.

Situation
The market town of Holsworthy provides a wide range of shopping, recreational and education facilities including Waitrose and Co-Op supermarkets, M&S food hall with associated fuel station, dentist, hospital and parkland 18 hole golf course.

The Cornish coastal town of Bude is some 9 miles west and provides further facilities including Blue Flag beaches, the stunning South West Coastal Path and a range of restaurants and bars. The cities of Plymouth and Exeter are both within an hour’s drive with an extensive range of shopping facilities and onward travelling links, including the M5 motorway, international airport and mainline train station.
