This elegant six-bedroom Victorian residence occupies a prime position in the heart of the small and historic market town of Colyton and is within easy reach of the local amenities.
The imposing period property, named The Grove, has a history dating back to the 1890s, and in more recent times it has been renovated by the current owners.
Being a Victorian house, it is light and airy with well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings, original cornicing, fireplaces and large sash windows.
Beyond the grand entrance hallway, featuring an elegant balustrade staircase and stunning stained-glass panels, there are the principal reception rooms each offering fine views over the landscaped gardens.
The drawing room features a focal fireplace and large bay windows, while the dining room is equally pleasant and also has an original fireplace and large bay windows allowing light to fill the space. The sitting room has another charming fireplace and large windows looking over the gardens.
The kitchen has a traditional country look with a range of wooden units, white laminated worktops and several built-in appliances. There is also a breakfast room and a study on this floor. At the back of the property, there is a bedroom with an ensuite wet-room which could be converted into a separate annexe with a kitchenette.
On the first floor, a large landing with high ceilings and a stained-glass window leads to five bedrooms, a useful laundry room and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a dressing area and an ensuite bathroom.
Outside, the gardens have been meticulously landscaped and feature a lawn, well-established flower beds, shrubs and mature trees. A lovely pathway lined with flower beds runs around the garden and there are areas of patio.
The property comes with a garage and a large driveway providing parking space for several cars.
