Description
The property now benefits from modern energy-efficient upgrades, including 26 high-output solar panels (425 watts each) with 16kWh battery storage, which have significantly improved the EPC rating from a D to a B. In addition, newly installed double-glazed windows enhance comfort and efficiency throughout. The house is also equipped with CAT 5 cabling to support high-speed internet, complemented by the new fibre optic line running through Whimple.
On the southeast-facing rear of the house, French doors from the conservatory, kitchen, and garden room open to the broad, paved terrace, enclosed by low brick walling with raised beds, providing a delightful outside sitting and dining area overlooking the gardens.
The large gardens consist of level lawns bisected by a meandering garden path with a plant-covered pergola, leading to a newly built wooden footbridge over a small stream. There are ornamental trees and shrubs, together with a greenhouse, fruit cage, and a productive vegetable patch. The gardens also include around ten fruit trees, mainly apples with a few pear and plum varieties, providing seasonal produce. In addition, there is a chicken coop with a fitted run, as well as a brand-new log store shed, further enhancing the outdoor amenities.
Chapters is situated in the popular and attractive East Devon village of Whimple, about midway between Exeter and Honiton. The village has a good selection of amenities including a village store, two pubs, primary school, doctor’s surgery, church, village hall, and tennis and cricket clubs. There is also a station on the mainline from Exeter to London (Waterloo).
The nearby town of Ottery St Mary has a good range of local facilities, including the well-respected King’s School, and Honiton has a more extensive selection of facilities, including an excellent range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, a secondary school, leisure centre, swimming pool, and golf club.
To the south is the lovely seaside town of Sidmouth and the spectacular East Devon coast, known as the ‘Jurassic Coast’, stretching east from Exmouth and designated a World Heritage Site. There are stunning coastal walks taking in the pretty coastal towns and villages such as Branscombe and Beer.
The university and cathedral city of Exeter, with its extensive range of cultural, shopping, and sporting facilities and selection of state and private schools, is within easy reach via the A30. There is access to the M5 motorway at Junction 29 and stations with mainline connections to London (Paddington and Waterloo). Exeter Airport is about 5 miles away.
