Situation - The property is situated in an attractive location surrounded by farmland on most sides, though on the lower side with Exeter Livestock Market and Marsh Barton Industrial Estate beyond. It is only half a mile from Alphington which has an excellent range of local facilities including a variety of shops, pub, primary school, doctors surgery, dentist and supermarkets etc., whilst the centre of Exeter is less than two miles. The cathedral and university city provides a wealth of facilities befitting a centre of its importance.

Introduction - Headway House is a detached brick property built in 1957, set off a no through private lane. The house, though comfortable, would benefit from a degree of updating and remodelling or even extension. The land offers great amenity and conservation appeal. It is rare to find a property with land so close to Exeter.

The House - Entrance porch into hall with stairs to first floor. The sitting room is triple aspect with glazed tiled fireplace and French doors to rear porch plus door to garden. The dining room has a stone open fireplace and dual aspect views. The kitchen also has an outlook over the market plus range of open fronted cupboards. Separate wc, coats hanging area and utility room with door to outside.

The first floor landing has rural views. There are three double bedrooms and one single bedroom, most enjoying views either rurally or over Marsh Barton. Bathroom with bath with electric shower over and basin. Separate wc.

The Grounds - There is a circular drive with parking. The large gardens are mainly lawned with some fruit trees. Access to the land is on foot from the end of the garden which leads into a steeply sloping area of rough scrub beyond which is an area of steeply sloping broadleaved woodland (including Tree Preservation Orders). At the top of the woodland is an area of rough pasture from which wonderful views are enjoyed for many miles. Overall the property amounts to 6.97 acres.

Services - Metered mains water. Mains electricity. Private drainage though the buyer will need to put in a new drainage system on their own land. Off peak night storage heating in part.

Directions - From Alphington proceed into Dawlish Road and as this road becomes Chantry Meadow, turn left into Dawlish Road. The entrance drive to the property is on the left after 300 yards. Proceed down the gravelled track and the entrance to the house is on the right.

Overage Clause - An overage clause will be in the contract of sale that if planning consent is granted for any additional permanent dwellings on the property within 20 years then 50% of any increase in value will be payable to the sellers.

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

    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
