Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
The house has been traditionally constructed by reputable and established local builders and is offered with a 10 year NHBC warranty. It enjoys a delightful rural location backing onto farmland yet is convenient for the beautiful East Devon coastline (Sidmouth beach is just over 5 miles) and the Cathedral City of Exeter (city centre 12 miles) and Exeter Airport (5 miles).

The spacious family accommodation benefits from double-glazing, a ground-source heat pump and under-floor heating, solar panels, and a private drainage system. An attractive porch leads into a light and airy reception hall with a downstairs cloakroom and a storage cupboard. The large sitting room has a triple aspect and a wood burner as a focal point. On the opposite side of the hall is a good-sized study with a dual aspect. The comprehensively fitted kitchen/dining room is a particular feature with a host of integrated appliances and extensive fitted units with quartz worktops, including an island unit and a breakfast bar. The dining area opens onto a paved patio and there are Velux windows with electronic controls. Adjoining the kitchen is a large utility room which also has a door into the garden. Upstairs is a spacious landing with further electronically controlled Velux windows and 4 well-sized bedrooms with lovely rural views and built-in wardrobes. The master bedroom has a superb en-suite shower room and there is also a family bathroom with a separate shower.

Outside
There is a gravel driveway with ample off-road parking leading to a Linhay-style detached garage. The house stands in attractively landscaped gardens with a paved patio and pathways and which back onto open farmland.

Directions
Leave the centre of Ottery St Mary along Mill Street, turning left at the 'Give-Way'. Go over the river bridge and turn left into Strawberry Lane (signposted West Hill). Take the 2nd left (Fluxton/Tipton St John). After about 2 miles turn right (Metcombe) and after about a mile the house will be found on the right.

Location
Metcombe is positioned in a convenient yet rural area of East Devon, within easy reach of Exeter, Ottery St. Mary and Honiton and with good communication links including the A30, M5 Motorway and Exeter International Airport.
The highly sought after village of West Hill is 1.5 miles away with a village store and post office, church, village hall, garage, hairdressers and dental surgery. There is also a highly regarded primary school.
Ottery St. Mary, about 3.5 miles away has an excellent range of amenities, including a Sainsbury's supermarket, selection of independent shops, medical centre and popular secondary school, The King's School.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
