Dryden Cottages, Church Close, Aylesbeare EX5

This delightful period cottage successfully combines all modern comforts with a host of charming character features. Church Close is a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance of the village pub (The Nightjar).

A covered porch with a double-glazed front door leads to the lovely living room with an impressive backlit inglenook fireplace complete with a cosy wood burner. There is wooden flooring and a substantial exposed timber ceiling beam. This room also benefits from a very large under stairs cupboard and a further generous coat-hanging cupboard with a window and electricity consumer unit. An attractive timber door to the spacious kitchen/dining room with wooden flooring and an extensive range of modern fitted units with solid timber worktops with tiled splashbacks and a ceramic sink. There is a built-in oven and electric hob with an extractor, plumbing for a dishwasher, space for a large fridge/freezer, and a door to the garden. Upstairs is a large airing cupboard on the landing and a hatch to the rear loft space. There are 3 bedrooms – 2 have built-in wardrobes/storage and the other a large alcove with a hanging rail. The smartly presented modern bathroom features a freestanding clawfoot bath, a separate tiled shower with a rainmaker shower and a separate hand-held shower head, a vanity unit, downlighters and a heated towel rail. There is air-source central heating and uPVC double-glazing.

Outside
The garden is a delight. From the courtyard outside the kitchen door, 8 steps lead up to a long, enclosed, and mainly level garden subdivided into several distinct areas. A lawn beyond which is a new timber shed with 2 windows and a further shed and chicken run. There is a vegetable plot and a further good-sized area of lawn with a large timber-decked area with views of the church.

Directions
Leave the A30 at Daisymount, taking the B3180 signposted West Hill. Take the 3rd right at Tipton Cross to Aylesbeare. At the crossroads (Aylesbeare Cross), turn left into Village Way (signposted Exmouth and Village Centre). Church Close will be found on the right (almost double-back on yourself, if you get to the pub you have gone too far!)
