Apple Hill is situated in one of the most idyllic settings, enjoying stunning views over the adjoining rolling countryside. Although the position offers a distinct rural feel, it is by no means isolated. The nearby village of Tipton St John is within easy reach and offers amenities including the renowned The Golden Lion and a highly regarded primary school. The surrounding glorious countryside provides excellent walking opportunities, and the village also benefits from a superb recreational park with tennis courts and a cricket club. The King's School in Ottery St Mary is just a few miles away, with the Regency coastal town of Sidmouth located at a similar distance.

The property itself is well-proportioned and enjoys a light and airy feel, offering a ‘ready to move into’ home of quality. It is tastefully decorated throughout and enhanced by contemporary fixtures and fittings. The well-presented accommodation briefly comprises a reception hall and a dual-aspect sitting room with patio doors leading onto a decked veranda, along with further French doors providing access to the gardens. This is a particularly pleasant room, enjoying beautiful views and featuring a Scandinavian-style wood burner/multi-fuel stove.

There is a separate dining room ideal for more formal occasions, again benefiting from lovely views. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed with an extensive range of contemporary cream-fronted cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level, enhanced by solid timber worktops with concealed lighting. Integrated appliances are included, along with a central breakfast bar/workstation island. Large French doors lead to a substantial conservatory with underfloor heating, creating a versatile and usable space throughout the year.

There are three good-sized bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from an en-suite facility. Both the family bathroom and en-suite are well-appointed with stylish white suites. The property also benefits from oil-fired central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout.

Outside, the property is approached via double timber gates, giving access to a substantial driveway that provides off-road parking for several vehicles and a useful log store. The gardens and grounds wrap around the property, predominantly to the side, where a thoughtfully positioned summerhouse enjoys spectacular panoramic countryside views. A large Indian sandstone paved patio offers ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining in this peaceful and idyllic setting. There is also a workshop with light and power, and the flowerbeds are well stocked with a variety of specimen plants and shrubs, creating interest and colour throughout the year.
