Freehold
Description
A much loved home has been well maintained by the current owners but would now benefit from some cosmetic improvement giving any would be buyer a chance to put their own stamp on this amazing home.
The property sits in an elevated position on a ridge looking over the Axe valley towards Axmouth and the sea. Dating back to 1946, it has been extended over the years giving generous and flexible accommodation ideal for a growing family or for multi-generational living. Worthy of note is the timber coach house in the driveway. This was formerly living accommodation, now in need of updating but has been used in recent times for storage and a home office/ workspace. This we believe offers huge potential to the property.
The main house includes on the ground floor, a large porch, hallway, downstairs shower room, breakfast kitchen, lounge, dining room and a downstairs bedroom.
On the first floor are two further bedrooms (both with amazing views of the coast and the Axe Estuary), a bathroom and separate WC. A door then leads up to the attic which benefits from views to both aspects and an en-suite shower room.
The property further benefits from oil fired central heating with radiators and double-glazed windows.
The property is conveniently located on a quiet green lane within walking distance of local facilities-the parish church, 2 pubs, post office and general store, butcher and village hall. It is also within walking distance or a short drive of the famous Colyton Grammar school. (Colyford enjoys a very active local community with events including the Annual Goose Fayre). Also in the village is a station for the famous Seaton-Colyton Tramway which runs in the beautiful Axe Estuary which includes a nature reserve with lovely walks and bird hides. There is a bus stop close by for the Exeter-Weymouth X53. Colyford is a much sought after East Devon village in the Axe Valley with the sea at Seaton about 1.5 miles to the south and inland is the pretty country town of Colyton (about 1 mile). There is a main line railway station (Exeter Waterloo line) at Axminster about 5 miles away.
A real feature of this wonderful home is its outside space. A gated driveway leads to a gravelled parking area.
The property has a formal garden to two sides of the property, both sides include mature plants and shrubs. There is a mini paddock area fenced off from the main garden and a practical kitchen garden area with beds and a timber green house.
The coach house includes light, power and to the rear includes two large storage areas (please see floorplan).
