Description

An attractive and well presented modern house on a small freehold development for over 55`s, set in pleasant gardens very close to the centre of the town. The accommodation comprises two good sized double bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and both with built-in storage, family bathroom, ground floor cloakroom, kitchen/dining room and lounge with French doors to the garden. Outside, to the rear, there is an enclosed easily maintained garden with upper and lower seating areas. The property benefits from gas fired central heating, double glazing and an allocated parking space. Queens Court has been thoughtfully designed with pretty landscaped gardens and seating areas as a centre piece and the parking areas set subtly to each side and at a lower level. The development forms a very pleasant community for retirement living set conveniently within a short walk of the town`s amenities. No onward chain.

Colyton is a pretty little market town (more like a village) with a small town centre offering a good range of daily needs including two convenience stores, fish and chip shop, butcher, hairdressers, post office, small stationers, pharmacy, health centre, garden centre, library and a few other individual shops. On the edge of the town is the tramway station which operates services throughout the summer along the Axe Estuary to Seaton. The Jurassic Coast and pretty harbour at Axmouth is just 2.5 miles away and the ever-popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis just 7 miles to the east. There is a primary school in the town and the well regarded Colyton Grammar School is just over a mile away. A beautiful Church is at the heart of the town and there is an interesting variety of architecture. Nearby Axminster (6 miles), has a mainline station with regular trains to London Waterloo and Exeter. The city of Exeter is approx. 25mins by car and the airport just outside Exeter is approx. 19 miles.
