Richmond Terrace, Colyton, Devon

An attractive period property situated in a residential road within the town centre, just a short walk away from shops and the Colyton Garden Centre. King Street is made up of mainly period properties with very pleasing architecture, making this a popular road. The house is mid terraced with beautiful accommodation set out over three floors. The house has been largely upgraded and stylishly finished with appealing decor throughout. The large family bathroom is located on the top floor along with a lovely bedroom with pretty dormer window. On the first floor are two further double bedrooms, whilst at ground level, the entrance hall leads to a welcoming sitting room with wood burning stove, a most attractive kitchen/dining room, a utility room and ground floor shower room. The rear garden has undergone a complete make-over and offers a tranquil paradise of tropical splendour. Very well stocked with a stunning variety of plants and small trees with a path zig-zagging through the garden around the raised planting beds. There is even a vegetable bed and a greenhouse at the far end. Offering a good deal of privacy this is a fabulous space in which to lose oneself and forget the world.

Colyton is a pretty and historic town with a village feel with a range of local facilities including health centre, library, butcher's, baker, convenience stores, fish and chip shop, pubs, tea rooms, a garden centre and a variety of small shops and services. The beautiful Norman Church is the centre point of the town, which is most famous for the 1685 Monmouth Rebellion. On the edge of the town is the Seaton tramway station which operates services throughout the summer along the Axe Estuary, linking Colyton and Seaton, which is very popular with tourists. The nearby Colyton Grammar School is another draw for the area as the school consistently appears in the top 10 Grammar Schools in the country. The Jurassic Coast and pretty harbour at Axmouth is just over 2.5 miles away, with the seaside resort of Lyme Regis to the east, just 7 miles and Sidmouth to the west just under 11 miles.
