Description

A beautifully presented recently modernised two bedroom detached period cottage sat within a generous 1.26 acre plot with breath taking far reaching countryside views.

This delightful country residence has recently gone through a programme of modernisation. This includes full redecoration, new kitchen with some integrated appliances, new floor coverings, some internal remodelling including new ceilings, an upstairs shower room, new downstairs bathroom, updated electrics and new consumer unit to name a few.

The spacious accommodation includes on the ground floor an entrance porch, breakfast kitchen, large open plan lounge/ dining room, bathroom, storage and stairs to the first floor.
On the first floor the landing offers access to two spacious double bedrooms and an upstairs shower room. A real feature of the bedrooms are the triple aspect windows taking in the magnificent views.

The cottage further benefits from double glazed windows and oil fired central heating with radiators throughout.

AGENTS NOTE: There is lapsed outline planning permission for demolition and replacement of the property if needed, Ref 22/1238/OUT.

Sunnyside is situated in a peaceful setting on a quiet countryside lane, just on the edge of the popular East Devon village of Cotleigh, 2 miles from the market town of Honiton. From Cotleigh there is easy access onto the A35 which leads East towards Dorchester and West to Honiton where there is access onto the A30 dual carriageway, which in turn leads to the cathedral and university city of Exeter.

Honiton provides a useful range of shopping facilities including supermarkets, specialist independent shops and primary and secondary schooling. From Honiton and the nearby town of Axminster are train stations on the Waterloo line. Exeter & Taunton offer the majority of leading department stores expected of a county capital, hospitals and an excellent range of cultural opportunities together with state and private education. A short distance to the east of Exeter is an international airport. The beautiful East Devon Coast is easily reached and offers wonderful recreational opportunities with walking on the coastal path and sailing clubs at Axmouth and Beer.

A real feature of this property is its outside space. The long, level 1.26 acre plot is roughly 1/4 mile long with areas of lawn and woodland and to the rear (south) are the most amazing far reaching views. About half way down the garden is a five bar gate from the lane. This gives scope subject to permissions being granted for some potential extra income from Sheppard’s Huts or Yurts. To the side of the property there is a gated driveway with parking for several vehicles and access to the large double garage/workshop.
