Description

" An extended and well situated detached tower bungalow set at the end of a small close of properties on the outskirts of the town and yet only just over half a mile from the town centre. The style of the property offers the flexibility of ground floor living with the added benefit of two first floor bedrooms, served by a shower room. This unusual design, being part house and part bungalow features throughout this development having been built in the early 1990 s amongst the other houses and bungalows. On entering through the enclosed porch and into the spacious entrance hall, a stair case rises to the first floor, and doors from the hallway lead to a master bedroom suite on one side with the living space on the other. As the property has been extended, there are a possible 4 bedrooms in all, one of which is currently accessed through the master ground floor bedroom and therefore serves as study dressing room. With a minor amount of work to erect a partition wall, this could easily be separated if desired. There is a generous living dining room leading to a conservatory which enjoys a lovely outlook over the garden. Off the hallway is the main family bathroom now fitted with a large shower instead of bath and the kitchen, which leads to a conservatory style utility room. Upstairs, a bright landing leads to two other bedrooms and a shower room. Both of these bedrooms have corner windows and both enjoy lovely countryside views. The property is well maintained and well presented with double glazed windows and gas central heating.

Outside, a driveway at the front provides parking and leads to a double garage. The garden wraps around the house with a useful area at the side, leading from the garage, where there is space for recycling bins and a small greenhouse. The main garden lies to the back of the house and is south west facing, with patio seating areas, a small retaining wall, a good area of lawn, shrub and small tree planting and an attractive gazebo offering covered seating.

Colyton is a pretty and historic town with a village feel with a range of local facilities including health centre, library, butcher s, baker s, pharmacy, convenience stores, fish and chip shop, pubs, tea rooms, a garden centre and a variety of small shops and services. The beautiful Norman Church is the centre point of the town, which is most famous for its role in the 1685 Monmouth Rebellion. On the edge of the town is the Seaton tramway station which operates services throughout the summer along the Axe Estuary, linking Colyton and Seaton, which is very popular with tourists. The nearby Colyton Grammar School is another draw for the area as the school consistently appears in the top 10 Grammar Schools in the country. The Jurassic Coast and pretty harbour at Axmouth are just 2 miles away, with the seaside resort of Lyme Regis just 7 miles to the east, and Sidmouth just under 11 miles to the west.
