The Brambles is a beautifully presented detached house situated in the heart of the peaceful village of Colyford. Located in an ideal location within walking distance to the local Colyton grammar school, village amenities and Wetlands nature reserve, the property would make an ideal family home and must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated.

Since purchasing the property, the current owners have made improvements and renovations throughout including extending the property incorporating an open plan orangery and kitchen and a further extension to the first floor incorporating an impressive main bedroom with dressing room, balcony and en-suite and a fourth bedroom. Other works, most of which have taken place around 2017 include redecoration throughout, new oak doors, balustrade and stairway, oak flooring, a new kitchen, the addition of a wood burner to the lounge, updated bathrooms and an additional downstairs cloakroom and external landscaping works.
