Queen Street, Colyton, Devon, EX24

A fascinating period house situated right in the heart of town with parking, garden and lots of out buildings. A most unusual combination of accommodation and outside space in such a central location. This unlisted property, which is in a conservation area has evolved through the years to the house as it stands today.
Internally, the property offers flexible accommodation with a potential annexe to the front ground floor, where there is a large bed sitting room with a kitchenette behind, a shower room and hallway with its own front door. Along the hallway is a reception room, which could be dining or living room. Beyond this is a lovely farmhouse style kitchen/diner with a back door to the garden. Additionally, off the kitchen is a large work room/studio with a utility room contained within, which also houses a w.c. Off this room is a conservatory.
Upstairs on the first floor are four good sized bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and a family bathroom. A further stair case leads to an attic.

Outside, there is a very pretty and secluded garden, which is mostly walled. To the front is a fence with secure gate leading to the parking space, which is beneath an archway. At the far end of the garden is a large stone built workshop (former stable and feed store) which leads into a double height store, with a sturdy wooden staircase leading to the upper floor. And finally, another room adjoining the workshop is set up with electricity and light and makes an ideal place to work from home.

Colyton is a pretty and historic town with a village feel with a range of local facilities including health centre, library, butcher`s, baker, 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 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 is just 2 miles away, with the seaside resort of Lyme Regis to the east, just 7 miles and Sidmouth to the west just under 11 miles.
