Upper Green Croft is a distinguished Edwardian detached residence, constructed in the early 1900s, and has been cherished by the same family for over four decades. This property is situated on the outskirts of Colyton and features generous living spaces characterized by high ceilings and notable period elements, such as arched bay windows and intricate crown moldings.
The home comprises three double bedrooms and offers a thoughtful layout with two reception rooms, a light-filled garden room, and abundant attic space. The entrance creates a welcoming atmosphere with an attractive staircase leading to the upper levels. The living room is enhanced by a bay window and a charming fireplace with a wood-burning stove, while the formal dining room showcases another bay window alongside a decorative fireplace that adds to the character of the property.
In terms of practicality, the kitchen/breakfast room includes fitted units, an integrated oven and hob, as well as space for additional appliances, all set against tiled flooring. A conveniently located ground floor shower room benefits from natural light thanks to a Velux window. At the rear, the expansive garden room opens through French doors to the southerly-facing garden, providing an adaptable living area that connects indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly.
Upstairs are three spacious double bedrooms; the principal bedroom overlooks the front garden while another includes its own shower cubicle. One of the bedrooms features built-in storage and additional wash facilities. Completing this floor is a family bathroom equipped with both a bath and overhead shower along with a separate WC. Above this level lies an attractive feature—the two large interconnected attic rooms currently serve as storage but hold significant potential for conversion into additional bedrooms or versatile living areas with necessary permissions.
Surrounded by mature walled gardens that benefit from privacy and sunlight, Upper Green Croft is set back from Sidmouth Road behind a stone boundary wall with gated access. The wide driveway accommodates ample parking space leading to a substantial double garage/workshop complete with power and light—ideal for hobbies or further development.
The location enhances this property’s appeal; Upper Green Croft is within walking distance of Colyton's historic town center, which fosters a strong community spirit and provides essential amenities such as shops, cafes, health services, and Colyton Grammar School—a highly regarded institution in England. Transport links are also robust; local bus services connect easily to nearby areas while Seaton and the Jurassic Coast are just two miles away for those who appreciate coastal activities.
This property stands ready for immediate occupancy yet offers remarkable potential for future modernization
