A spacious house occupying a large plot with a useful studio outbuilding and off street parking. Good local primary school, village amenities and quick access to Exeter, bus services and the motorway network.

This property was originally built for the Local Authority and typically offers well-proportioned and solidly built family accommodation in a convenient location.

The kitchen has recently been replaced with new base units, wall cupboards and flooring. There are two spacious reception rooms with the sitting room having a fireplace with a wood burner, ideal for winter evenings. The dining room has practical laminate flooring, ideal for family use.

Whilst comfortable, the accommodation would benefit from redecoration inside and out and new carpets, with some remedial works required to finish it all off.

On the rear roof elevation, there is an array of photo voltaic (solar) panels, producing electricity for immediate use and the excess feeding into the national grid.

The house occupies a large corner plot with generous, fenced lawn gardens to the front and rear. The rear garden has a lane behind, giving access via wooden gates for parking within the boundary, subject to any relevant consents. The studio building in the rear garden could be used as a home office or gym and to the side, there is a dog kennel and small compound, as well as a further log store.

Services: Mains water, electricity and drainage. 'Calor (LPG) Gas' for central heating from a large tank.
Tenure: Freehold
Council Tax: Band B
Local Authority: Mid Devon District Council
Agent's note: this property has historically been subject to a notice relating to Clause 157 of the 1985 Housing Act which stipulates that the owner or occupant must have lived or worked in the county for the last three years. However, we understand from Mid Devon District Council that this no longer applies and can be readily lifted on the sale of the property. Please check this detail with your solicitor in the first instance.
