A very well presented detached bungalow set in fabulous gardens of around 0.45 acre with plenty of parking and a large double garage. Planning Permission has been granted to enlarge the accommodation using the space that is currently occupied by the garage. Plans can be viewed on the East Devon Planning Portal using ref: 24/2693/FUL. Situated in a small cul-de-sac in the village of Colyford close to the well regarded Colyton Grammar School, the property is around 2 miles from the sea and beach at Axmouth/Seaton. The pretty fishing village of Beer is a little further, at about 3.5 miles with Lyme Regis just over 6 miles to the east and Sidmouth just over 9 miles to the west.
The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout with lots of light from large windows. The front door opens into a large hallway with built-in storage and doors leading to the bedroom wing and reception rooms. The left side of the property houses three double bedrooms and two bathrooms, the large master bedroom being situated at the back with a lovely outlook over the garden and en-suite shower room. The living space comprises a large kitchen/breakfast room which has been beautifully fitted with a modern kitchen, adjoining this room is a dining room with views over the garden and a corner fitted modern wood burning stove. From here, an archway leads to the living room, which also has views over the garden and leads on to another reception room a lovely garden room with large windows on two sides. The bungalow is very well planned with almost all the windows having a view of the garden.
Outside, to the front is a well screened (with mature hedging) driveway offering plenty of parking and turning space and leading to the large double garage. The garage can house two modern cars and still has plenty of space for utilities and a gardener's loo at the back. The garden wraps around the property on all sides and (like the property) is very well maintained and attractively landscaped with large lawned areas and many mature shrubs and small trees. A Beech hedge with an arched gateway leads to a secret garden, where there are raised beds, fruit trees and a secluded seating area.
