3 bed detached bungalow for sale

Monkleigh Barton, Monkleigh, Bideford, Devon EX39

Set within a small, exclusive new development in the heart of the North Devon countryside, Plot 1 is a beautifully designed detached bungalow that brings together contemporary architecture, premium finishes, and single-storey living at its very finest. From the moment you turn onto the driveway, the striking façade, warm natural timber cladding, and a slate roof, signals that something rather special lies within.

The generous garage sits at the centre of the frontage, framed by that distinctive oak clad gable, and the broad driveway ensures there's always space for family and visitors alike. Thoughtful landscaping and neatly bordered planting beds soften the approach, giving the whole property an air of considered, unhurried elegance.

Step inside and you're immediately struck by the quality underfoot and overhead light floods through large-format windows, and the layout flows with the kind of logic that only good architectural thinking delivers.

The heart of the home is a superb open-plan kitchen and dining space, designed for those who love to cook and entertain. The sitting room area enjoys french door into the private rear garden and accommodates ample floorspace for freestanding furniture and storage units, making for the kind of room you can settle into at the end of the day and don't want to leave.

The principal bedroom suite is a generously sized double room with a beautifully appointed en-suite and ample built-in storage. Further bedrooms and bathrooms are equally well-considered, whether you need space for guests, family, or a dedicated home office.

Outside, the rear garden offers privacy and space in equal measure, a blank canvas ready to become whatever you want it to be, whether that's a kitchen garden, an evening entertaining space, or simply a peaceful retreat from the world. The Location Monkleigh is a charming North Devon village with a real sense of community, and this development sits at its heart.
