Description

Open views over the neighbouring Ilsham Valley are just one attribute of this TOWN HOUSE forming part of a select cul-de-sac in the heart of leafy Wellswood. The property provides well-proportioned, versatile accommodation arranged over three levels, complemented by a southerly facing entrance level balcony and low maintenance garden, with ample driveway parking and car port to the approach. 

Colwyn Court stands just off the tree lined Asheldon Road almost a stone's throw from the local village amenities with selection of shops including general store, Post Office, Chemist and Church whilst the picturesque Meadfoot Beach can be found within a reasonable walk through the wooded Ilsham Valley. A regular bus service is located on the nearby Babbacombe Road.

OWNER'S INSIGHT

"We have so loved living at no. 20. The house is full of light and catches the sun all day on the balcony, with stunning views over Ilsham Valley. And with thee floors and two open plan spaces it feels expansive but also very cosy. The house is minutes away from the relaxed village atmosphere of Ilsham Road’s shops, cafes and school and five minutes' drive to the harbour. But now it’s time for us to move on and leave this lovely home to some very lucky new owners."
