Lower Broad Oak Road, West Hill, Ottery St. Mary, EX11 1XQ

This is a fine example of modern conversion with the use of traditional and contemporary quality materials, creating a wonderful family home in an idyllic setting. The property lies conveniently close to the heart of the village, being just a short distance away with its excellent range of amenities including a convenience store, a highly regarded Primary School and The King's School in Ottery St Mary. Both schools have been rated as Outstanding by Ofsted. Swift access to the A30 and M5 makes commuting a viable option from this idyllic setting.

The property itself is beautifully appointed and thoughtfully designed with a highly versatile layout that would provide an extremely comfortable home for any large family and those working from home. The light and airy accommodation includes a spacious entrance hallway with a polished concrete flooring and integral audio speakers with zone control both of which continue throughout the property. The hallway also benefits from large flush finished storage cupboards and a cloakroom W.C.

The open plan and palacious sitting room/kitchen/dining room is most definitely the heart of the home, with pleasant garden outlooks, a vaulted ceiling with skylights and three sets of french doors opening on to the rear patio all providing a wonderful space for family and friends to cook, dine and socialise together. 

The kitchen is well equipped with an extensive range of contemporary cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level, whilst incorporating quality appliances. A central island offers additional storage and room for food preparation with breakfast bar which will please any keen cook. The room also provides ample space for a good sized dining table and chairs as well as a large lounge/TV area with integral surround sound. There is an art room/playroom with a feature floor to ceiling window and a very practical utility/plant room creating further appliance and storage space.  The principal bedroom is a lovely dual aspect room, benefitting from both a dressing room and a luxury ensuite facility with both bath and separate shower cubicle. The guest suite is away from the principal rooms with a shower room and a second sitting room or family room, creating good sized annexe if ever required. The remaining four bedrooms are serviced by a second shower room and a family bathroom, all fitted with stylish and contemporary suites. One of these bedrooms would lend itself to being used an office.

The property benefits from underfloor heating provided by an air source heat pump, solar photovoltaics and even a water harvester all creating an extremely efficient home to run.

The substantial gravel driveway is accessed via double gates, providing excellent security and seclusion with off-road parking for several vehicles and room for boats, caravans etc. The driveway also provides access to the large detached garage, with a studio behind. The gardens and grounds are another appealing feature of this superb home, wrapping around all sides with two large paved patios providing plenty of space for outdoor dining and entertaining in the summer months whilst admiring the views down the valley across adjoining countryside. There is a wild flower garden, a fish pond, fully connected treehouse and a large expanse of lawn giving children space to run and play and the rest family to enjoy this wonderful part of East Devon.
