Wick, Honiton

On the first floor are three bedrooms (two overlooking the front and views), as well as a family bathroom.

Services - Mains water and electric. Private drainage shared with next door in the garden, thought to have been upgraded by EDDC, however this has not been tested. Ultra fast fibre broadband via Gigaclear with up to 1,000 mb/s available, mobile coverage likely inside and outside with EE, O2 Three and Vodafone (Ofcom).
