Bishop Court, Colyton, Devon

A detached "tower bungalow" set at the entrance of a small cul- de -sac of properties on the outskirts of the town and yet only just over half a mile from the town centre. The style of the property offers the flexibility of ground floor living with the added benefit of two first floor bedrooms, served by a shower room. This unusual design, being part house and part bungalow features throughout this development having been built in the late 1980's amongst the other houses and bungalows. On entering through the enclosed porch and into the entrance hall, a stair case rises to the first floor, with doors from the hallway leading to a bathroom and master bedroom. From the hall is a kitchen / breakfast room which in turn leads to a generous living/dining room. Upstairs, a bright landing leads to two other bedrooms and a shower room. Both of these bedrooms enjoy lovely countryside views. The property is well maintained and has been subject to a comprehensive programme of improvements throughout, including new double glazed windows and gas central heating.

Colyton is a pretty and historic town with a village feel with a range of local facilities including health centre, library, butcher's, baker's, pharmacy, 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 its role in 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 are just 2 miles away, with the seaside resort of Lyme Regis just 7 miles to the east, and Sidmouth just under 11 miles to the west.
