Description

This charming period home, constructed in 1933, presents a remarkable opportunity for both renovation and development. Spanning nearly 2,000 sq. ft., the house boasts spacious accommodation filled with natural light, enhanced by its scenic surroundings and protected countryside views. The property currently holds outline planning consent for a two-storey replacement dwelling within its grounds, paving the way for various development possibilities. Ideal for investors or those looking to create an extended family residence, this plot allows for innovative landscaping that preserves privacy while capitalizing on stunning vistas. Inside, the main entrance leads into a generous hallway connecting to a well-proportioned sitting room and living room, both featuring original fireplaces and large bay windows that invite ample daylight. The conservatory extends from the sitting room and frames panoramic views of the lush gardens and beyond. The ground floor includes a spacious kitchen and dining area with shaker-style cabinetry, complemented by an adjoining utility room; these areas are ripe for modern updates. On the first floor, you’ll find four double bedrooms that include sizable window features overlooking the garden and countryside. These rooms hold potential for enhancements to improve comfort and functionality, alongside family bathroom facilities needing modernisation. The external space is equally enticing: mature hedgerows encircle rolling lawns with functional outbuildings including a greenhouse and potting shed—both offering further investment potential pending necessary permissions. A paddock with apple orchard adds to the land's appeal, making it suitable for various uses. This property is set on the outskirts of Aylesbeare village, close to Exeter’s urban amenities while being surrounded by nature trails and parks. With local conveniences including schools, transport links, and community facilities nearby, this home represents an exciting project for anyone wanting to invest in property with development scope.
