Property description
Greenbank is situated on the southern outskirts of the town enjoying an elevated position commanding fine country views that must be seen to be fully appreciated. The town's excellent amenities are all within walking distance including a variety of independent shops, supermarket and excellent schools. The A30 dual carriageway is also within easy reach providing swift access to the Cathedral City of Exeter, M5 and the coast. The surrounding countryside not only offers an idyllic setting but is a superb walking/horse-riding facility.
The property enjoys well-proportioned light and airy accommodation and would benefit from updating but would lend itself as a comfortable home for both families and retired occupants alike. There is huge potential to extend in a variety of ways, subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents. The loft conversion could create two further double bedrooms or a reverse level sitting room which would enjoy stunning views.
The property briefly comprises reception porch and spacious hallway with cloakroom WC. The kitchen/breakfast room is fully fitted with a range of pine-fronted cupboards and drawers with plenty of work surfaces and inset four-ring gas hob. There is an eye level double built-in oven and space for additional appliances along with a family-sized dining table and chairs. The sitting room has a feature open fireplace and a large picture window perfectly framing the beautiful views. There are three bedrooms, two large double rooms and a good sized single with a door leading directly out on to the rear garden. The family bathroom benefits from both bath and separate shower cubicle. The property has gas central heating and extensive PVCu double glazing throughout. There is a large extensive loft space that offers a superb opportunity to convert into additional accommodation if required or as a large storage area.
The property is approached via double wrought-iron gates leading on to a driveway providing off-road parking and access to the integral garage, with light and power. The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn with well-established flowerbeds bursting with an array of specimen plants and shrubs creating a range of colour throughout the year, and a particular mention must be made of the Magnolia tree which would please any keen gardener.
The rear garden is a good size and there is a raised patio area providing plenty of room to enjoy outdoor dining/entertaining whilst admiring the country views. The garden benefits from a southerly aspect enjoying sun throughout the day, has expansive lawn and a series of flowerbeds again bursting with a variety of mature plants and shrubs. There is a garden room thoughtfully positioned to sit and enjoy this idyllic setting.
Ottery St Mary is one of the most pleasant and friendly small towns in East Devon with many amenities, shops, pubs, churches, good schools, post office, banks, medical centre, local hospital, recreational activities, sports centre and bus services. Although surrounded by beautiful open countryside it is particularly accessible; within 6 miles of the coast at Sidmouth, Exeter 12 miles (M5 access) and Honiton 6 miles with further shops, amenities and mainline station (Waterloo-Exeter).
