This expansive residence is nestled on the outskirts of a charming woodland village, offering an array of local amenities including a convenience store and a well-respected primary school. With easy access to the A30 dual carriageway, Exeter and the coast are just a short drive away. This 1930s property showcases characteristic architectural features such as high ceilings, spacious rooms, and feature fireplaces. Although it is currently comfortable for family living, there is significant potential for modernization and expansion (subject to planning permissions). The ground floor presents a welcoming reception hall with cloakroom W.C., leading into a generous kitchen/breakfast room outfitted with traditional cabinetry and a walk-in larder. This farmhouse-style area encourages social interaction among family and guests. Additionally, the dining room could potentially be merged with this space to create an open-plan layout if desired. The sunroom offers delightful views of the garden while the large sitting room with its inviting fireplace enhances winter coziness.
On the first level are five bedrooms alongside a shower room and family bathroom; notably, the master suite benefits from dual aspect views and connects to bedroom five—ideal for use as an office or nursery. The property also includes oil-fired central heating and double-glazed windows throughout. Furthermore, the sizeable loft presents opportunities for additional living space or storage.
Accessing the property grants an impressive first impression with a winding drive leading to both integrated and detached garages surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds spread across 1.6 acres. The gardens feature mature shrubs and trees that offer year-round color and privacy—a perfect setting for children to play or even keep horses, given existing stables needing some care. Other outdoor structures include a Victorian-style greenhouse and various sheds.
West Hill is characterized by its community spirit, hosting various essentials such as shops, schools, a church, village hall, dental services, and public transport links. Nearby Ottery St Mary is approximately 2 miles away offering further amenities including medical facilities and supermarkets.
