Description

Presenting an opportunity to transform a well-established family home that has been cherished for over 27 years. Holly Ridge, located on a serene no-through lane, boasts proximity to Colyton Grammar School, one of the UK's leading secondary institutions. With the town of Colyton just a mile away, this property enjoys both tranquillity and convenience. While the home is tidy and ready for living, it shows significant potential for modernisation throughout—particularly in the kitchen, bathrooms, and general decor including flooring and lighting. The entrance is via a five-bar gate leading to a gravel driveway that provides ample parking in front of a sizeable two-storey timber outbuilding. Currently serving as storage and workspace, this structure requires either re-cladding or replacement but could be adapted for various uses with appropriate planning permissions. Inside the main residence, the ground floor features a large porch, hallway, shower room, kitchen, dining area, sitting room, and an additional versatile room suitable for multiple purposes. Upstairs includes two spacious bedrooms with stunning views of the coast and countryside along with a bathroom and separate WC. A staircase leads to an expansive attic space complete with dual aspect windows offering remarkable vistas. This property serves as a blank canvas for those looking to design their ideal home in a coveted location while also enhancing its value.
