Substantial Victorian home in about 4.84 acres with fantastic views overlooking the village. Council Tax Band G. Freehold. EPC Band F
Situation - The property is positioned in an attractive rural location between Honiton and the East Devon coast. Designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the setting is wonderfully quiet and unspoilt with rolling hills and valleys, offering a glorious rural setting overlooking the village of Southleigh.
Situated on the western side of the village, the nearby town of Colyton, home to the renowned Colyton Grammar School, offers a good range of day to day amenities. The world heritage site of the Jurassic Coast, famed for its geological rock types and its attractive fishing ports and beaches is a short distance to the south. The market town of Honiton to the north boasts a rail connection to London Waterloo, and access to the A30. The University city of Exeter lies further to the west and offers a comprehensive array of retail and leisure facilities, as well as an international airport.
Description - This attractive period home is understood to date back to 1845 and offers an elegant, stone Victorian home with outstanding views over Southleigh Valley. The house is a substantial, elegant, stone Victorian home with the characteristics you would expect of this era with lovely high ceilings, large windows, well proportioned rooms, feature fireplaces and decorative fascia boards.
Accommodation - From the main entrance, you are welcomed into a good sized hall with stone floor leading to: The large triple aspect farmhouse kitchen fitted with a range of units centred around a 4 oven oil fired AGA; there is Belfast style double sink, stable door to one side and French doors to the other with steps into the garden. Dual aspect sitting room with fireplace and a family room/office with a wood burner on a brick hearth and bread oven and second staircase leading to bedroom 3. There are two WC's, a utility room off the kitchen and boot room with dog shower and storage off the side.
On the first floor are four good size bedrooms; three of the bedrooms have a double aspect, two of them have Victorian fireplaces with the main bedroom having a walk in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom with freestanding shower bath. There is a large family bathroom with separate shower.
Outside - Entering the property off the lane there is parking and turning space for vehicles. To the side of the house is a partly enclosed courtyard forming a kitchen garden area with greenhouse and raised beds, a track beyond takes you down to the paddock. The gardens set mainly east and south from the house are mostly lawned, enclosed with a stone wall with flower beds, shrubs and trees.
Over the wall are two gently sloping paddocks, the first interspersed with several fruit trees, whilst across the lane to the north is a further orchard area.
Outbuilding - Forming part of the western boundary, a substantially rebuilt barn has a new steel frame roof, significant block built walls and concrete floor. This barn requires finishing and presents opportunities for other uses subject to consents.
