Exeter Road, Honiton, Devon

THE PROPERTY
Woodhills is a handsome detached property which sits on the outskirts of the desirable market town of Honiton. The property was built in 1932 and is of traditional construction with principally colour-washed and rendered exterior elevations under a tiled roof and has been the subject of a programme of enlargement and improvement over the 14 years of current ownership. Woodhills now has spacious and adaptable accommodation with well-proportioned light and airy rooms. Worthy of particular mention is the delightful dual aspect sitting room with a gorgeous sun room and the well-proportioned dining room with an attractive curved bay window. Woodhills started life as a 4 bedroom property. However we understand that the loft space was converted to create two additional bedrooms and a shower room, so as it stands the property has 6 good-sized bedrooms, the principal of which has a lovely new en suite with a separate shower/bath and a family bathroom. The property also retains some delightful features yet has some modern ones including underfloor heating in the kitchen and utility. The large kitchen/breakfast room has plenty of storage, instant hot water tap, granite worktops, a pantry and French doors that open out to the gardens. The large utility was added in 2014 and provides further additional storage.

The accommodation comprises:- Large entrance hallway with engineered oak flooring and stairs rising. Cloaks cupboard and cloakroom. Double aspect dining room with curved bay window. Huge sitting room with a wood burner and picture rails, together with bespoke storage/shelving. Wonderful sun room/study extension with sky lantern. Large kitchen/breakfast room with granite tops and French doors. Large utility room. From the entrance hallway stairs rise and turn to a good-sized first floor landing to which there is a big airing cupboard. Principal double aspect bedroom with built-in wardrobes and en suite bath/shower room, 3 further double bedrooms and large family bathroom. Second floor two double bedrooms and a modern shower room.

OUTSIDE
The property is approached off Exeter Road through electric wooden gates to a parking area and onto the detached double car port/workshop and stores. This outbuilding has a games room, gym and good-sized workshop with extractor. There are also solar pv pannels which are providing an excellent amount of battery storage. To the front of the property is an area of lawn with a wildlife pond and the house is screened from Exeter Road by a high hedge. The majority of the gardens lie to the rear of the property and consist of a level area of lawn and a productive kitchen garden. A large patio was upgraded 18 months ago and provides a lovely place to entertain during fine weather. There are also several profusely stocked flower and shrub beds, fire pit, greenhouse and two garden sheds.
