Property description
Probably dating back to Edwardian times, Westholme is a substantial detached period house with light and spacious accommodation, standing in its own grounds, just tucked away from the town centre but within a short walk of all the local amenities.
This impressive double fronted residence has lots of character with many original features such as floor tiling, high ceilings and open fireplaces, together with adaptable accommodation. On the ground floor is a hall, comfortable sitting room with conservatory off, gracious dining room, fitted kitchen/breakfast room with Aga, together with a study/bedroom four with en-suite, ideal for a relative, nanny or teenager.
On the first floor is a spacious landing, three double bedrooms, one with an en-suite area, as well as a spacious family bathroom and separate WC. The large roof space offers scope for further accommodation subject to any necessary planning consents/building regulations. There are recently fitted double glazed sash windows and a modern gas central heating system.
To the outside are two vehicular accesses, one from Mill Street and the main entrance from Hind Street. These provide plenty of parking space as well as a long garage and useful workshop/storage buildings adjoining. The large surrounding gardens are laid out in 'several interesting rooms' providing secluded and sunny sitting out areas with a wide variety of plants, shrubs, climbers and trees. To the rear is a well-stocked 'secret garden' completely enclosed and adding to the total site area of about a third of an acre in all. The spacious grounds are easy to manage and almost completely walled and are both ideal for retirement or family living.
In all, a unique residence, nicely tucked away but particularly convenient and suitable for a wide variety of buyers.
Ottery St Mary is one of the most pleasant and friendly small towns in East Devon with many amenities, shops, including Sainsbury's, pubs, churches, very good schools, post office, banks, medical centre, local hospital, recreational activities, sports centre and bus services.
