3 bed detached house for sale

Devon, Budleigh Salterton EX9

A deceptively spacious and most attractive, 1920’s detached house built in a charming style at the more rural, end of East Budleigh Road within half a mile of Budleigh Salterton's famous pebble beach and Otter Head nature reserve. ‘Royston’ is set in particularly attractive and sought-after location set back from the road with delightful views towards Sidmouth & Peak Hill.

The accommodation is well presented whilst providing ease of maintenance and a great deal of flexibility. There is superb potential to create a self-contained annexe, if required, whilst the provision to live on the ground floor is a notable asset for those looking to future proof themselves.

Outside, the charming gardens warp around the property and back onto the old railway line. The gardens enjoy a sunny aspect and high degree of privacy. The large private driveway and attached garage provide ample parking. The plot is fairly level from front to back and is landscaped for convenience and ease of access in mind.

This property is especially well situated, the beach and promenade are very close-by with lovely walks along the River Otter towards Otterton and coastal walks to Sidmouth and Exmouth.

Budleigh Salterton

A tranquil and unspoilt Regency town by the sea, which has managed to retain much of its classic beauty and original charm. Situated on the Jurassic Coastline of East Devon and designated as a World Heritage site, it is considered one of the most desirable coastal locations in the UK. The beautiful two-mile beach, with very clean and safe bathing water, is framed by the picturesque sandstone cliffs, and allows panoramic views across Lyme Bay. Nearby is the Otter Estuary, which has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has an abundance of wildlife to explore.

Budleigh Salterton has much to offer, having an impressive variety of interesting shops with a wide choice of individually run family businesses, restaurants and cafes. There is also a primary school, doctor's surgery, dentists and a library, all within close proximity of the property. There are a number of clubs and societies that cater for all ages and cover a range of interests, pursuits and activities. East Devon Golf Club, Budleigh Cricket Club plus the Croquet and Tennis Club are renowned sporting venues, whilst culturally the art galleries and drama playhouse have regular exhibitions.

The annual literary and music festivals are recognised on an international level, with some of the town’s famous residents regularly contributing. There are opportunities for all types of cycle routes, water sports and fishing along the coast and in the Exe Estuary. Scenic walks can be enjoyed along the South West Coastal path and the Otter Estuary. The nearby pretty villages of East Budleigh, Otterton and Colaton Raleigh also offer a great deal of exploration and interest, with superb walking and riding potential at Woodbury Common.

The Cathedral City of Exeter lies just 12 miles away, famous for its Cathedral, University, theatres and relaxed style.
