4 bed detached house for sale

Moorcourt Close, Sidmouth, Devon EX10

This distinguished four-bedroom detached residence, designed by the renowned local architect R.W. Sampson, stands within mature gardens of around half an acre and enjoys lovely valley and sea views. The property beautifully combines period charm with contemporary refinement, having been significantly updated both internally and externally by the current owners.

Situation

A newly constructed brick-paved driveway from Cotmaton Road now provides direct access and ample parking, together with an EV charging point for modern convenience. The superbly landscaped front garden creates an impressive first impression and also offers potential for an additional dwelling, subject to planning consent. Ideally located within around three-quarters of a mile of Sidmouth’s town centre and seafront, the property is perfectly placed for access to the town’s excellent range of amenities, shops and coastal walks.

Accommodation

Internally, the property has been comprehensively refurbished, with smooth plasterwork, fresh décor and an emphasis on light and flow throughout, blending period features with contemporary style. The spacious reception hall sets the tone, leading to three elegant reception rooms including a cosy sitting room with feature fireplace housing solid wood burning fire, a versatile family room and a study with bay window and feature fireplace, and a study. The kitchen/dining room is a particular highlight, fitted with striking pink units, integrated appliances including instant hot tap, stone worktops extending to a useful breakfast bar, with French doors opening directly to the garden, complemented by a useful walk-through utility and an adjoining conservatory that enjoys a bright southerly aspect.

First Floor

On the first floor, a splendid galleried landing provides an impressive focal point and access to all principal rooms. The four double bedrooms are generous and beautifully presented, many of which capture lovely valley and sea views. The principal bedroom captures superb sea views and benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, while the guest bedroom opens onto a large wrap around decked sun terrace overlooking the gardens - the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. A further dual-aspect bedroom features a Juliet balcony, adding to the sense of light and space.

Gardens

Externally, the mature and well-tended gardens are a real feature of the property. Laid predominantly to lawn with a wealth of established trees, shrubs and colourful borders, they offer privacy, tranquillity, and a wonderful sense of seclusion. Thoughtfully designed seating areas provide the ideal setting for entertaining or quiet enjoyment, all framed by the beauty of the surrounding landscape.
