This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of Ottery St Mary's most iconic buildings, built from Cob and Oak only sixteen years ago by an award-winning local builder seen on the popular TV show 'Grand Designs'. The Cob House is situated on the edge of town surrounded by glorious countryside with the town centre and its range of amenities within easy reach including a variety of independent shops, cafes, supermarket and outstanding primary and secondary schools. The A30 dual carriageway provides swift access to the Cathedral city of Exeter, M5 and the coast.

This beautiful prestigious home is well-presented and sympathetically decorated to enhance the quality and character of this unique home with deceptively spacious light and airy accommodation briefly comprising; reception hall with a feature staircase and oak doors leading to a spacious sitting room with large window with a seat to encourage you to take a moment to sit and enjoy the countryside views. There is a feature fireplace with wood burning/multi-fuel stove creating a cosy atmosphere on a winter's evening. The traditional farmhouse-style kitchen/diner is well-appointed with a range of bespoke handmade oak cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level whilst allowing room for modern appliances including a Rangemaster cooker, enhanced by the attractive granite work surfaces. This lovely, multi aspect room is a wonderful environment for family and friends to cook, dine and socialise together and is definitely the heart of the home. A utility room offers additional storage and appliance space, along with a cloakroom W.C, thoughtfully located close to the back door.

The first floor is dominated by the impressive master suite which is another impressive dual-aspect room with a spacious en-suite facility benefitting from both a roll-top bath and a separate walk-in shower cubicle. There are two further bedrooms on the first floor, one currently used as a dressing room fitted with oak wardrobes which can be removed and reinstated as a bedroom if required. The family bathroom is equally well appointed and fitted with a stylish white suite comprising corner bath and double shower cubicle.

The second floor is highly versatile and would provide two further spacious double bedrooms or a grand guest suite with an independent living area and bedroom en-suite; perfect for a more independent relative. This superb property is also a highly efficient home to run, with thick cob walls and a ground source heat pump which serves the underfloor heating, complimented by quality sealed unit double-glazed windows.

To the front of the property is a driveway and garage (with light and power) providing room for off-road parking and an EV charging station has been recently installed. The gardens extend predominantly to the front and side of the house to take advantage of the sun throughout the day. The front garden is a typical cottage garden with deep well established flowerbeds bursting with a variety of specimen plants and shrubs creating a range of colour throughout the seasons and would please any keen gardener. There is an expanse of lawn to allow children space to run and play with an Indian sandstone paved pathway leading to the front door. Matching sandstone patio and gravel areas allow room for outdoor dining/entertaining in the summer months whilst enjoying an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion while admiring the countryside outlook.

Ottery St Mary is one of the most pleasant and friendly small towns in East Devon with many amenities, shops, pubs, churches, good schools, post office, medical centre, recreational activities, sports centre and bus services. Although surrounded by beautiful open countryside it is particularly accessible; within 6 miles of the coast at Sidmouth, Exeter 10 miles (M5 junctions) with the new A30 dual carriageway giving swift access and Honiton 6 miles with further shops, amenities and mainline station (Waterloo-Exeter).
