Description

This expansive detached residence, constructed in the 1970s, is situated on a sizeable plot of over one third of an acre in a desirable area. Accessed via a private shared drive with a gated entrance, the property features a substantial garage and off-road parking for two to three vehicles. Internally, it comprises a split-level layout with essential utility areas located on the lower level, while the main living spaces are positioned above. A circular staircase facilitates movement between levels, with the living area including an entrance hall equipped with a wood-burning stove and patio doors leading out to the rear garden. Beyond this, there is a sitting room, dining area, and kitchen, along with three bedrooms and a family bathroom accessible from a central corridor. The home is in need of extensive renovation both internally and externally but holds great potential for redevelopment, contingent upon obtaining necessary consents. The windows consist of both uPVC double glazing and wooden frames, and heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. The surrounding grounds offer pleasant countryside views from key rooms within the property while providing an inviting degree of privacy due to mature trees and hedging defining its boundaries. This setting presents an excellent opportunity for investors or those looking to create their dream home through significant refurbishment. Located within Colyton—a charming historic town that boasts various local amenities including shops, pubs, healthcare facilities, and schooling—this property is also just a short distance from the stunning Jurassic Coast.
