Description

DESCRIPTION
Higher Colmer is an impressive detached family home, built in 2016, occupying a private and peaceful setting whilst enjoying excellent accessibility to the A38. Set within grounds of approximately 3.88 acres in total, the property enjoys lovely views across its own land, which would suit a variety of uses including equestrian or smallholding purposes.

Electric gates open onto a private driveway leading to an extensive brick paved parking and turning area positioned to the front of the property, whilst also providing access to the integral double car port and garage.  The house offers spacious and light-filled accommodation throughout, with underfloor heating and laminate wood flooring extending across the ground floor. A welcoming entrance hall gives access to a useful office, generous boot room/utility room and cloakroom facilities.

Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the superb open plan kitchen/dining space, flooded with natural light and designed perfectly for modern family living and entertaining. The kitchen is comprehensively fitted with a range of integrated appliances alongside a central island, whilst patio doors open directly onto a large paved terrace overlooking the surrounding land. A separate living room provides a cosy retreat, complete with wood burning stove and further patio doors leading onto the terrace.

To the first floor, a spacious galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms and the family bathroom, with the principal bedroom benefitting from en-suite facilities. Above the car port and garage is a substantial additional space currently utilised for storage, although offering excellent potential for conversion into further accommodation such as an additional bedroom suite, subject to any necessary planning consents.  The property also benefits from excellent eco credentials including solar panels and an EPC rating of B, combining modern efficiency with comfortable family living.

Higher Colmer occupies a superb position, offering the perfect balance of privacy and convenience with excellent transport links nearby whilst enjoying a quiet rural setting.

SITUATION
The property is situated just outside of the hamlet of California Cross which is well served by a service station with a well stocked general store and the popular California Inn. Just up the road you will find The Ringfeeder café, a family run business with a varied daily menu.   The nearest town of Kingsbridge is located approximately 6 miles south, with the popular smaller town of Modbury being situated approximately 3 miles south-west. The A38 dual carriageway expressway, connecting to the M5 motorway and national road network, is approximately 4 miles to the north. The South Hams coastline at Bigbury, Bantham and Thurlestone is only a short distance away.

AGENTS NOTE
The existing driveway will serve the property exclusively. The seller will create an alternative independent access to the farm buildings beyond and will not retain any rights of way over the property's driveway, ensuring complete privacy and sole use of the access for the future owner.

Title register restrictions (DN547641):
- The property is subject to any old rules (restrictive covenants) that might have been created before February 2002. Because the original paper deeds were lost in the past, the exact details of these rules are not listed, but they remain legally binding if they still apply. Restrictive covenants are usually rules that stop an owner from doing something, like building on the land or running a business from home.
- There is a standard rule (a restriction) that prevents the property from being sold or transferred without the mortgage lender's (Lloyds Bank PLC) written consent. This is a normal part of having a mortgage and ensures the loan is paid off during the sale.
Non-coal mining area: yes
No specialist issues recorded
