An immaculately presented five-bedroom detached residence, complete with driveway parking and a single garage, enviably positioned within one of Barnstaple's most prestigious and sought-after locations. Having been thoughtfully updated by the current owners over the past twelve years, the property has been finished to an exceptional standard throughout, with no expense spared and a clear attention to detail evident in every room.

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed into a superb L-shaped kitchen and snug arrangement that also incorporates a practical utility area. The utility space provides room for a washing machine and tumble dryer, along with a useful cupboard for coats and shoes, ensuring everyday functionality is neatly tucked away. Along one wall sits a bank of high-quality Neff ovens alongside an integrated Bosch coffee machine, in addition to a Neff freezer. The kitchen offers generous worktop space and features a Rangemaster cooker with extractor hood above, creating a focal point for the room. Slate flagstone flooring runs throughout the kitchen and utility area, complemented by underfloor heating.

At the far end of the kitchen, a charming bay-style window allows natural light to flood into the snug area, creating a cosy yet bright space in which to relax. Also in this section next to the stairs you will find a downstairs W/C. A door leads out to the front garden area, which is often used as the secondary access point due to the parking being situated to the rear. From the kitchen, double doors open into the dining room, where a large bay window once again enhances the sense of light and space. A further door lead into the elegant living room, which enjoys a bay window to the front, French doors opening on to the rear garden, engineered hardwood parquet flooring covers these two rooms, and a striking wood-burning stove that forms the heart of the room. The French doors from the living room open directly on to the patio, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living and making the space ideal for entertaining. On the ground floor the oak staircase and doors were engineered by a local craftsman.

The first floor hosts three well-proportioned double bedrooms, together with a beautifully appointed family bathroom finished to a high and contemporary specification. The bathroom features a Jack and Jill wash basin, WC and a walk-in double shower, while the centrepiece is a sunken, floor-level bath with jets and a built-in television, offering a truly luxurious retreat. Bedroom one benefits from its own en-suite shower room, styled with a slightly more characterful finish incorporating warmer tones and wood elements, providing a tasteful contrast to the modern family bathroom.

The second floor is home to a further two double bedrooms, set beneath dormer windows that invite in plenty of natural light and enhance the sense of space. This top-floor is generous in size and provides a peaceful sanctuary away from the main accommodation.

Externally, the rear of the property offers ample parking for several vehicles in addition to the single garage. The front of the house, has been attractively landscaped with patio areas and decorative chippings. The rear garden is a particular highlight, thoughtfully designed across levels with a beautiful water feature cascading from the upper section down towards the patio. The lower patio area sits adjacent to the French doors from the lounge, making it perfectly suited to hosting family gatherings and summer entertaining. Beyond this lies a lawned section with an additional seating area set in the corner, all enclosed by attractive walls to provide a high degree of privacy and excellent sunshine throughout the summer months.

Situated on Rumsam Road, the property enjoys a prime position within easy reach of well-regarded local schools, a range of nearby amenities and Barnstaple town centre, which is approximately a fifteen minute walk away. There is also convenient access to the link road, making Orchard House an outstanding choice for those seeking a high-quality home in a highly desirable and well-connected location.
