4 bed cottage for sale

Fawns Cottage, Sowton, Exeter EX5

A rare opportunity to acquire this extended 4 bedroom semi-detached cottage on the picturesque rural outskirts of Sowton Village surrounded by glorious Devonshire countryside. The well appointed property comes with a striking open-plan kitchen/diner/family room, utility & cloakroom/WC, lounge and guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom (ground floor). On the first floor, there are three more bedrooms and a family shower room, the master bedroom, with en-suite bathroom, forms part of the side extension over the lounge and boasts wonderful triple aspect views across the surrounding countryside.
Outside, the property boasts superb gardens which have been creatively designed and imaginatively landscaped for maximum pleasure and relaxation for all the family. There is plenty of off road parking for several vehicles and a large 30' x 20' workshop/storage outbuilding stands at the bottom of the garden and may, as an existing structure, provide the potential to put a more substantial building in its place. This could extend to ancillary accommodation which may provide a useful income stream or annex facility subject to planning permission.

Located roughly equidistant between the Cranbrook junction of the A.30 and Clyst St Mary, this charming property will suit those seeking to live in the countryside yet easily accessible to all main transport routes including the M5, A.30 & A38 Exeter/Plymouth Expressway, train stations, Exeter’s international airport and the city centre. The nearest villages are Clyst St Mary, Sowton Village and Clyst Honiton which are all within approximately 1.5 miles. Clyst St Mary has a popular primary school, pub and convenience store and is about 20-30 minutes by foot.

Strong interest anticipated and early viewings recommended.
