Property description
The Old Alfington Inn is situated on the edge of this desirable village surrounded by glorious East Devon countryside. This attractive village benefits from being within a few minutes drive of the A30 dual carriageway giving swift access to the north and south including the cathedral city of Exeter, the M5 and the coast. The surrounding countryside offers excellent walking facilities and the market towns of Ottery St Mary and Honiton are also within easy reach.
The property itself enjoys well proportioned, characterful accommodation with many original features. The former bar area is a large spacious room and would lend itself as a sitting room/dining room or additional accommodation if required. There is an inner hallway that leads to the spacious dual aspect kitchen/dining room that is fully fitted with a comprehensive range of cupboards and drawers both at base and eye level whilst allowing room for modern appliances and a large family sized dining table and chairs. The oil fired Rayburn concludes this pleasant farmhouse style kitchen. There is a second sitting room with a feature fireplace that would also lend itself as a ground floor bedroom or office. There is a recently refurbished luxury shower room and a separate w/c concluding the ground floor.
On the first floor are three good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a white suite. Most of the principle rooms enjoy beautiful views over the surrounding countryside.
Outside a substantial driveway provides off-road parking for numerous vehicles including boats, caravans etc. Timber gates provide access to the triple garage and there is plenty of room for a workshop etc. The gardens and grounds are another appealing feature being a lovely size predominantly laid to lawn and dispersed with mature shrubs, plants and trees. There is plenty of scope to extend further if required subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents.
In all a superb opportunity to acquire an individual detached cottage with large gardens and grounds with glorious views with plenty of room to extend if required.
Alfington is a charming small village with church, village shop and bus service to Ottery St Mary (1.5 miles) and Honiton (4 miles). The A30 can be easily reached for easy access to Exeter which is about 12 miles. Coastal resorts of Sidmouth (9 miles) and Exmouth (12 miles) are an easy drive.
