This deceptively spacious cottage which was formerly the village Post Office is situated in the heart of this pretty, old village with a range of interesting, individual properties. The village amenities are all within easy reach, situated in the new village just under a mile away and include a convenience store, mainline railway station connecting Exeter and London Waterloo and the highly regarded primary school. The property also benefits from being within the renowned King's School as well as Colyton Grammar School catchment areas, whilst the surrounding countryside offers excellent walking facilities. The A30 dual carriageway is a short drive away providing swift access to the Cathedral City of Exeter, M5 and the coast.

The well-proportioned accommodation is highly versatile and would adapt to create an independent living space for holiday letting or multi-generational living. The spacious lounge would easily be divided into two rooms if required and an open plan study area is perfect for those working from home. The kitchen/dining room is well-appointed with an extensive range of contemporary gloss-grey fronted cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level whilst incorporating modern appliances including eye level oven, microwave and fridge freezer. The attractive marble effect worktops allow plenty of room for food preparation and extends to a breakfast bar. This is a lovely sociable room with space for friends and family to cook, dine and socialise together with a door leading to the conservatory which would lend itself as formal dining if preferred with pleasant garden outlooks. A utility room offers additional storage and appliance space with pedestrian access to the garage. The sitting room has a more cosy feel with a feature fireplace housing a wood/multi-fuel stove and there is a second conservatory. The ground floor bathroom has been refurbished in recent years with a quality white suite including a spa bath.

On the first floor are four good size bedrooms, the master bedroom is particularly spacious enjoying a dual aspect and a range of fitted wardrobes. The family shower room is equally well-appointed with a modern contemporary white suite with a large walk-in shower enclosure. The house also benefits from double glazing and LPG central heating.

To the side of the house are double timber gates opening onto a large smooth tarmacadam driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles and access to the garage with light and power. The front garden is enclosed with a pathway leading to the front door with a bordering lawn and flowerbed. The rear garden enjoys a south-westerly aspect taking advantage of the afternoon sun and benefits from an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion. The garden has been thoughtfully designed with two areas in mind; a children's play area with an expanse of lawn allowing plenty of room for children to run and play whilst a substantial patio provides an area for entertaining and outdoor dining in the summer months.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. 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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
