This beautifully appointed period property sits in a semi-rural location on the outskirts of Honiton, benefitting from an idyllic countryside setting and the convenience of being moments away from the town centre and all its amenities.
The characterful family home is named Willowtrees and has a history dating back several hundred years. It is apparent that the accommodation has been carefully maintained over the years and a wealth of period features have been retained, with notable highlights being the two inglenook fireplaces, exposed panelling and the stunning ceiling joists and cross beams.
Inside, a cross passageway with charming plank and muntin panelling leads to all the main living quarters. The large sitting room has tastefully restored exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace with a log burner and bread oven. The kitchen/dining room is also a sizable and well-proportioned open space with a timeless classic look featuring a comprehensive range of bespoke wooden fitted units, exposed ceiling beams and a fireplace fitted with a traditional Aga. The kitchen flows into a light and attractive garden room which provides extra space for entertaining and has a lovely outlook of the gardens. A large study also sits on the ground floor.
On the first floor, a spacious landing leads to four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is of a generous size and benefits from built-in wardrobes and a well-presented ensuite.
The property also comes with a detached studio above the garage providing the potential to use it to generate extra income, for multi-generational living, or as a home office.
Outside, the property is surrounded by landscaped and well-established gardens, measuring almost a quarter of an acre. The rear garden is mostly laid to lawn and has two patio areas, providing the perfect setting to enjoy al-fresco dining and outdoor relaxation. Mature shrubs, trees and flowerbeds add an extra level of interest, and a highlight is the impressive willow tree at the end of the garden.
To the front, a short driveway leads to a parking area for several vehicles.
