2 bedroom Flat For Sale

Wake up to breathtaking river views and unwind with spectacular sunsets from this exceptional top-floor apartment, perfectly positioned to enjoy one of Barnstaple’s most enviable outlooks. Combining light-filled living space, a private balcony and secure parking, this beautifully presented two-bedroom home offers both lifestyle and convenience in equal measure.

This superb top-floor, two-bedroom apartment at Cleave Point enjoys truly spectacular views across the River Taw, with breathtaking sunrises and sunsets that can be appreciated both from the private balcony and from every principal room.

Nestled into the hillside just outside Barnstaple Town Centre, the development offers a peaceful setting while remaining conveniently close to amenities. The town centre can be reached on foot via the scenic Tarka Trail, making this an ideal location for both commuters and lifestyle buyers.

Positioned on the top floor, the apartment is accessed via lift from the main entrance hall or by one of two staircases. Inside, a central hallway runs through the property, with all rooms leading off it, creating a practical and well-balanced layout.

At the end of the hallway, the generous living room is perfectly positioned to maximise the river views. A large picture window and French doors open onto the private balcony, flooding the space with natural light throughout the day. The balcony itself provides a wonderful vantage point over the River Taw and the Tarka Trail — an ideal spot to sit and relax while enjoying the ever-changing outlook.

An opening from the lounge leads into the kitchen/dining area, offering a modern open-plan feel while discreetly positioning the kitchen out of direct sight. The kitchen is well-equipped with integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, along with a four-ring gas hob and built-in double oven. Light wood-effect wall and base units are complemented by dark worktops and white ceramic splashback tiling. Ceramic tiled flooring extends through to the dining area, creating a cohesive finish.

The principal bedroom features a thoughtfully designed dressing area with two built-in double wardrobes, allowing the bedroom itself to remain a calm, uncluttered retreat. Wide windows frame the beautiful river views. The en-suite shower room is fitted with a glass-enclosed shower with built-in shelving, white basin with vanity unit, WC, large mirror and neutral ceramic tiling to both walls and floors.

The second bedroom is also a comfortable double room, again benefitting from stunning river views and a built-in double wardrobe.

The family bathroom comprises a white suite including bath, basin with vanity unit and WC. Neutral ceramic tiling and a large mirror reflecting the ceiling spotlights add a bright, contemporary finish.
