This substantial home is situated on the edge of Rockbeare Hill in a popular address linking West Hill and Marsh Green, offering particularly convenient access to the A30. Ottery St Mary is about 3 miles to the East for everyday needs and the Cathedral City of Exeter offers a wide range of shopping, schooling and leisure activities. Communications are excellent with easy access to the M5 and Exeter airport. West Hill itself is an appealing and individual village with a small supermarket, pretty Church, modern primary school, village hall, garage and bus service. The popular King's School is also nearby on the edge of Ottery St Mary. The coast at Sidmouth is about 7 miles away.
The property enjoys light and airy well-proportioned accommodation expected of a1930s home. It briefly comprises; reception porch with a cloakroom W.C. The hallway leads through to the spacious sitting room/dining room which is a lovely open plan room with a feature bay window, perfectly framing the pleasant view across the garden and countryside beyond. The kitchen is well equipped with a range of traditional cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level, whilst incorporating a built-in oven and a gas hob above with room for modern appliances. There is a large walk-in larder providing additional storage and the granite effect worktops allow plenty of room for food preparation pleasing any keen cook. The lounge/breakfast room is another spacious dual-aspect room, again enjoying lovely views. There is a wood burner to create a cosy atmosphere and plenty of room for a family-sized breakfast table and chairs.
On the first floor are four spacious bedrooms, along with a family bathroom which is fitted with a white suite. The house has huge potential to extend in a variety of ways, subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents.
The property is approached via a substantial driveway lined with mature shrubs and trees creating a fine first impression, whilst providing plenty of room for off-road parking and plenty of space for boats caravans etc. The large workshop has further potential to create an independent annexe or holiday let if required. There is a shower room and a utility area with worktop and plumbing for a washing machine. The gardens and grounds extend to just over an acre and is a major feature of this family home. The paved sun terrace overlooks the garden and wonderful westerly views taking advantage of some stunning sunsets whilst allowing a superb outdoor dining / entertaining area in the summer months.
