'Fiddlesticks' offers a highly versatile, spacious and desirable bungalow suitable for all ages, - for couples, families or those with dependant relatives. It is on the rural edge of the hidden gem which is the charming and historic small town of Colyton with outstanding community facilities.
Colyton itself boasts good shopping facilities, Public Library, Health Centre, Inns, Restaurants and Churches, Colyton Primary School and the renowned Colyton Grammar School. The County town of Exeter, with its regional airport, is some twenty miles to the west, and the mainline rail link to London (Waterloo) is at Axminster, approximately seven miles distant. Furthermore it is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just 1.5 miles inland from the World Heritage Jurassic Coast.
'Fiddlesticks' enjoys far reaching countryside views to the front and the south/south west facing landscaped rear garden opens onto a wild flower and grass meadow which attracts deer and an amazing variety of native birds.
The property was built in 1988 and the present owners purchased the property in 1998 and since then have extended, updated and improved the property throughout and it must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated.
The current vendors have made a special effort to minimise gas consumption by installing a more efficient gas boiler, solar panels, thermostatic valves to all radiators etc. Further information on works carried out and energy consumption can be made available to any interested parties by request.
