Property description & features

An attractive, Edwardian, detached house understood to have been built in the late 1920's and situated in a prime, residential location on the edge of the Bickwell Valley Conservation Area.

SUMMARY
Presented in good decorative order throughout and with gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, the property is approached via a gated driveway leading to a period, archtop front door opening into an entrance hall with parquet flooring and excellent storage. Moving into the main hallway, doors lead to a double aspect sitting room with bay window to the south-east, a log burner and glazed connecting doors to a separate living room, again double aspect to include a window to the front with a south-westerly outlook. A particular feature of the house is the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room which is a large, L-shaped room with generous glazing to the rear having sliding doors into the rear garden.

SUMMARY (CONT..)
The kitchen is well appointed with quality units, complimented by granite work surfaces to include a breakfast bar and with a built-in double oven, warming tray, gas hob, dish washer and fridge. The room also has sliding, glazed doors to the front, south-westerly aspect opening on to a secluded patio. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room fitted with base units and sink, space for a washing machine and fridge/freezer and an airing cupboard housing the boiler and pressurised hot water cylinder.

SUMMARY (CONT...)
An inner hallway returns to the entrance hall and has both a larder and pantry. A rear porch leads into the garden and lastly, on the ground floor, is a well-appointed shower room. A spacious first floor landing leads to the main bedroom with a front facing window enjoying a south-westerly aspect, built-in wardrobe and an en-suite WC. The second bedroom is of a good size, has a built-in wardrobe and features a double aspect with windows to the front and side. Bedrooms three and four will both accommodate a double bed, the smaller having a built-in storage cupboard. The main bathroom, again is well appointed with a contemporary suite to include a separate, mains shower cubicle.

OUTSIDE
The house stands on a generous plot of just over one third of an acre. Iroko timber gates open to a driveway with generous parking, room to turn and a detached, single garage. The remainder is laid to level lawn. To the rear, a large porcelain tiled patio adjoins the back of the house and extends to meet lawn garden with gravel pathways leading to a further patio, gravel garden, storage shed and a second, large shed. The depth of the garden ensures that sunshine at any time of the year can be enjoyed.

LOCATION
Convent Road lies within a prime residential area of Sidmouth on the boundary of the Bickwell Valley Conservation Area. As such, the property enjoys beautiful surroundings close to Muttersmoor, the golf course, yet is a little over half a mile from the town centre and seafront. The town of Sidmouth benefits from an excellent range of amenities that include numerous independent shops and High Street chains, Waitrose, a cinema, theatre, modern health centre, cottage hospital, popular schools and well supported sports clubs, including rugby and cricket.
