Fairbank Close, Barnstaple, North Devon, EX31

Modern Living With Estuary Views

Imagine starting your morning with a coffee overlooking the River Taw Estuary, spending your weekends exploring the North Devon coastline and having Barnstaple's shops, cafés and restaurants just a short stroll away. At 1 Fairbank Close, this could become part of everyday life.

Situated within the exciting new Tarka Banks development, this beautifully designed two-bedroom end-of-terrace townhouse makes the most of its riverside setting, with three floors of contemporary accommodation, a private garden and a first-floor balcony where you can sit back and take in the estuary views.

The first floor is where this home really comes into its own. Designed around modern open-plan living, the kitchen, dining and lounge areas create a wonderful social space where cooking, entertaining and relaxing all sit comfortably together. The contemporary kitchen provides plenty of workspace and storage, while the adjoining dining area is ideal for everything from leisurely breakfasts to evenings spent with friends. There's also room to settle into a comfortable sofa at the end of a busy day.

Doors open onto the private balcony, extending the living space outdoors and offering a lovely setting to enjoy the changing scenery across the estuary. Whether it's a quiet moment with a book or a drink in the evening, this is a feature that makes the home feel particularly special.

Upstairs, two generously proportioned double bedrooms provide peaceful spaces to unwind. The main bedroom has room for a double bed, bedside furniture and wardrobes, while the second bedroom is equally versatile, whether used for family, visiting guests or a combination of sleeping and home-working space. A contemporary family bathroom, complete with a bath and shower facilities, serves both bedrooms.

The ground floor has been thoughtfully arranged with everyday practicality in mind. A separate utility room keeps laundry and household essentials away from the main living areas, while a convenient downstairs WC and useful storage add to the home's functionality. The integral garage provides valuable parking and storage space, ideal for everything from bicycles to paddleboards and other outdoor equipment.

Outside, the private rear garden offers another space to enjoy, whether that's summer barbecues, a morning coffee in the fresh air or simply relaxing after a day exploring the coast.
