DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
Grassy Glade was built in the 1980's and extended in recent years. It is situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, only a short walk from the centre of this popular and thriving village.
Kenton, which is home to Powderham Castle - the ancestral home of the Earl of Devon, boasts a Post Office/stores, 2 village pubs, a well-renowned primary school, restaurant, 2 hair dressers and a very popular farm shop complex. There are regular buses to both Exeter and Dawlish and lovely country walks across the Powderham Estate to the river Exe estuary.
The property also has the benefit of uPVC double glazing and oil fired central heating, the latter of which is supplemented by solar water heating to aid economy.
It is certainly rare for a property of this quality to come onto the market in the village and we, as agents, would wholeheartedly recommend an early viewing.
DIRECTIONS
Take the A 379 from Exeter towards Dawlish and pass the village of Exminster. On entering Kenton, turn right at the war memorial. Follow the road (bearing right) around the church and up the old High St. Take the second right at the top of the High St into Higher Down. Head up the incline and Grassy Glade will be directly in front of you.
