Situation

Exmouth is surrounded by the lovely Devon countryside, yet is only 12 miles by road or rail from the Cathedral City of Exeter, with its Intercity railway station, airport, connection to the M5 motorway and all major shops and facilities. The town of Exmouth boasts over three miles of golden sands and is well placed to take advantage of the numerous recreational facilities to be found by the Exe estuary and east Devon coastline, including the excellent facilities of Woodbury Park Golf and Country Club. A range of other amenities, including boating, sailing, water ski-ing, walking, a modern sports centre, swimming pool and marina are all available. Exmouth has its own thriving shopping centre and a variety of restaurants and other leisure opportunities.

Description

Located in the popular 'Avenues' area of Exmouth, a well presented three bedroom detached house with a large garden overlooking neighbouring fields. Constructed in the 1960s, the house has been improved recently with a modern shower room and there is also a shower room on the ground floor. The accommodation is spacious with an 18' sitting / dining room, kitchen / breakfast room and three double bedrooms. Subject to planning and the usual consents, there is scope for extending either to the rear or side to increase the accommodation without over developing the plot, which is a good size. To the front is a gravelled parking area for several vehicles whilst to the rear, a real feature of the property is a very well tended garden. Laid mainly to lawn with a good degree of privacy and overlooking the fields of the Maer Valley, there is also a raised patio and garden. Viewing is highly recommended.
