Swan Hill Road, Colyford

This charming Grade II Listed thatched Devon Longhouse offers a wealth of flexible and versatile accommodation and occupies a convenient location close to the heart of this sought after East Devon Village. Colyford, located along the A3052 between Sidmouth and Lyme Regis, has a selection of useful amenities including two village inns, a restaurant, post office with general store/butchers, specialist cycle hire shop and cafe, Church and village hall. In addition, Colyton Grammar School, one of England's most highly regarded secondary schools, is also within easy walking distance and the coastal town of Seaton lies 2 miles distant.

The property is believed to date back to 1534 and retains many character features which include exposed timber beams, an inglenook fireplace, and original casement windows with leaded panes. The property is approached over a gravelled driveway that enters from the left hand side of the property towards the rear passing through a five bar gate. The driveway widens in front of a detached single garage and allows comfortable room for several vehicles to park and turn. A selection of established plants and shrubs lie between the driveway and the southerly facing rear gardens which enjoy a great deal of privacy and sunshine throughout the day. The gardens are entirely level with a patio area located immediately to the rear of the property with an area of lawn that continues towards the rear boundary.

A front and rear door provide access to the property which are joined by a central hallway. The ground floor features a dual aspect sitting room with a charming inglenook fireplace, a spacious dining room, kitchen with an adjoining utility area and separate boot room, and a breakfast room. In addition, the ground floor also offers two double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite room and a modern fitted bathroom. The first floor feature four further bedrooms, two of which are generously proportioned double bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate shower room and finally, a separate cloakroom.

The property, which was re-thatched in February 2024, needs to be seen to be truly appreciated and is ready for immediate occupation. Early inspection recommended.
