The Exe Estuary Trail has 26 miles of cycleway along both sides of the Rive Exe and is a lovely way to explore the area.

The Property


The property has just been vacated by tenants so could be moved straight into but offers the news owners the opportunity to create something special to their specifications. The entire site also offers potential to be redeveloped subject to planning permissions.

This imposing house is situated centrally in a large plot with extensive accommodation extending to over 3,100 sq ft. The ground floor is entered via a large entrance vestibule that opens to a central hallway where stairs rise to the first floor. At the far end is a large triple aspect living room with brick fireplace and doors to the garden. There are two further reception rooms, also with brick fireplaces, and a large kitchen, all overlooking the garden. Several smaller rooms on this level include a utility room, two toilets and two storerooms. The first-floor landing is flooded with light thanks to a large window over the stairs and gives access to the six double bedrooms, four of which overlook the garden with distant views towards the River EXE. The two smaller rooms look to the front. The bedrooms are served by two bathrooms and one toilet. There is a further small room where the boiler and hot water tank is situated.

Outside


The entire plot measures approximately 0.36 of an acre and is broadly level. To the front of the property is a gated driveway from the road leading to a parking area in front of the house where there is a timber garage. To the rear is a lawned garden bordered with wooden fencing. The remaining land to the front and side of the property is largely overgrown with trees and scrub.
