Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Spacious Detached Bungalow
  • Three Bedrooms
  • Lovely Large Garden
  • Modernisation Required
  • Garage (En Bloc)
  • Allocated Parking
A spacious detached bungalow with a large garden, in Govers Meadow, popular for its proximity to the town centre. This particular bungalow is set back away from the access road and enjoys a quiet aspect as a result. The accommodation would benefit from a little cosmetic updating but is clean and tidy, offering the chance to open up the kitchen and dining room to make a larger space. The property is well designed with hallway storage of a large double cupboard as well as the boiler/airing cupboard. There are three bedrooms, two good double rooms and the third a single bedroom/study. There is a bathroom and additional WC off the hall. The lounge is a large square shaped room with patio doors offering a view over the lovely garden. A dining room, kitchen and rear lean-to porch/utility room complete the internal accommodation. A short way along the path, there are two parking spaces and a garage (en bloc). A third parking space may be available by separate negotiation. The level rear garden is delightful and a good size with pleasant views across the neighbouring orchard to fields beyond. The bungalow benefits from 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, convenience stores, 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 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 2 miles away and the ever-popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis just 7 miles to the east.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
