In more detail ...
This unique property has been a very happy family home for the current vendors for the past 25 years. It would make an ideal home for those wishing to have extended family nearby or for those wishing to run a business from home where the office is located separate to the main house. The property is set well back from Hulham Road, with what is probably the most impressive frontage on this road, and is shielded by some mature trees. It is approached via a block pavioured drive and offers parking for a range of vehicles/caravan and/or boat. The principal rooms have lovely scenic views across the lawned garden to the Exe Estuary. On entering the light filled welcoming hallway with bespoke cupboards for storage and wooden panelling you get an instant sense of the friendly atmosphere offered. A very impressive spacious sitting room runs from the front of the house to the rear and enjoys access to the covered patio and verandah, with views across the rear garden via double glazed French doors. A focal point is added by a Portuguese Limestone fireplace inset with a flame effect electric fire. The dining room is also dual aspect with wonderful coastal views to the front. This room also has a Portuguese Limestone fireplace with a flame effect fire. There is ample room for a large table and chairs and this is an ideal space in which to entertain family and friends as it adjoins a door to the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen is fitted with high specification units with black gloss door fronts with a complementary worktop inset with a sink and drainer. An instant boiling water tap provides hot water. Integrated appliances include: De Dietrich 5 zone induction hob with chimney extractor above, a Bosch fan assisted combi microwave/multifunction oven, a separate Bosch fan assisted multifunction oven, and a Bosch dishwasher. There are spaces for a wine cooler, washing machine, dryer and American style fridge/freezer. Features of the kitchen include corner wall and base carousel units which open to touch with revolving shelving, soft close drawers, plinth lighting, ceiling mounted LED spotlights and a breakfast bar with space to seat 4. Upstairs the large master bedroom is accessed via a large room currently used as a nursery/sitting room and enjoys a luxurious boutique hotel style en-suite shower room, a large walk-in wardrobe and dressing room and, it has some lovely estuary views too. There are three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. This is a home which really must be viewed as soon as possible to appreciate the full size and nature of the accommodation and the wonderful lifestyle opportunity it affords.
What the owner likes ...
This is such a great spacious and versatile property where 3 generations of our family currently live in the main house and we all have enough individual space to enjoy. We love entertaining friends & family and this home is the perfect place to do that. Everyone tends to congregate in the kitchen during the winter, and in the summer the garden is brilliant for barbecues. We will miss this house as it has been such a happy home.
Bear in mind ...
Three generations of the same family live in the main spacious chalet bungalow and they use one of the annexes for a work based office and as a guest suite but this would also offer superb accommodation for a family member. The other annexe has provided a healthy monthly income of £525.00 per calendar month from a tenant who lived there for 12 years until May 2015. The most recent letting valuation gives an increase on this monthly amount. The property sits amidst approximately 1/2 an acre of manicured gardens where paths bordered by paviours meander under a pergola with the scent of climbers such as jasmine, clematis and honeysuckle. A gravelled area is planted with an attractive array of Japanese maples and a further bed with grey slate gravel highlights the low level green conifers interspersed with specimen shrubs and flowers. A soft play area with bark is ideal for young children. At the bottom of the rear garden a large paved patio area has an adjoining log cabin which has double glazed French doors and windows. There is also a large hidden storage/utility area with five sheds (to be included) which could be used for private or business purposes.
The location ...
Hulham Road sits within about 2 miles of Exmouth seafront, with its stretches of golden, sandy beach. Exmouth town centre is also about a mile away and a regular bus service runs along Hulham Road. The property is ideally situated to travel to the well regarded villages of Budleigh Salterton, Woodbury and Lympstone too. For keen walkers there is access nearby to many miles of coastal path starting at 'The Needle' at Orcombe Point, which denotes the start of the World Heritage coastline. The Exe Estuary has been designated an 'Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty' and offers further exceptional walks and a cycle path leading to Lympstone. There are endless opportunities to enjoy a variety of water sports in addition to equestrian and golfing pursuits.
