2 Bedroom Detached Bungalow for sale in Colyford

1 2 1

This delightful and deceptively spacious detached chalet-style bungalow occupies a prime position at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac, just moments from the heart of the highly sought-after village of Colyford. Ideally located close to the village amenities, including the post office general stores/butchers and local public houses. The property enjoys both convenience and a peaceful setting alongside glorious views to the rear taking in the wetlands and Axe Estuary, with vistas stretching towards Axmouth village and Church and across the surrounding countryside. This charming home enjoys a wonderful setting and offers surprisingly spacious well-presented accommodation throughout which can only be fully appreciated by an internal inspection.

The property is approached via the attractive front garden, with front door opening to the entrance hall which provides access to a large built-in storage cupboard and stairs rising to the first floor. A particular feature of the property is the impressive rear-facing living/dining room, a lovely spacious and light-filled room, enhanced by a fully glazed rear aspect with sliding patio doors. This area enjoys truly outstanding views across the rear garden and beyond, taking in the wetlands and estuary, looking towards Axmouth village and the surrounding countryside. The sitting area centres around a fireplace with gas coal effect fire inset with windows to either side, while the dining area offers ample space for a table and chairs, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is well fitted with a range of matching base and wall units, with laminate work surfaces, a one-and-a-half bowl sink unit, built-in electric oven, gas hob with extractor above, a window overlooking the side garden and door accessing the side of the property.

On the ground floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is situated to the rear and benefits from the same far-reaching views as the living space, along with a range of built-in wardrobes and access to a generous ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom is another comfortable double, enjoying a front aspect with a walk-in shower cubicle. A cloakroom with WC and wash basin, together with useful understairs storage, completes the ground floor accommodation.

Stairs rise to the first floor, where there is a large open-plan room with a bow window overlooking the village. This versatile space could be utilised as a study, or hobbies room, and features built-in wardrobes and access to a substantial loft area housing the Worcester gas central heating boiler. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, this space also offers excellent potential for further extension, such as the creation of a dormer bedroom with en suite, which would take full advantage of the superb countryside and estuary views.

Outside:

The front garden is predominantly laid to hard paving, providing ease of maintenance while also offering off-road parking. There is space available both in front of and to one side of the integral garage, together with additional gravelled parking to the opposite side. The garden is complemented by well-established planting, adding colour and interest, and pathways lead to gated access on both sides of the property, providing convenient access to the rear and side garden.

Immediately adjoining the rear of the living/dining room and the principal bedroom is a large, paved terrace, providing an ideal seating area from which to enjoy the delightful far-reaching views across the garden and beyond. Beyond the terrace lies a level lawn, attractively bordered by well-stocked flower beds planted with a variety of flowering shrubs and ornamental plants, all enjoying the same superb outlook towards the surrounding countryside and estuary. A pathway to one side of the garden leads to a pedestrian gate, providing convenient access back to the front parking area. This area also features an external water tap, a raised gravelled garden with established shrubs, and an additional power point.

To the opposite side, a further pathway leads to the kitchen door and continues to a second gravelled seating area. This sheltered space, enclosed by panelled fencing, enjoys a sunny aspect and provides an additional private seating area with an outside water tap.
