Orchard Close, Ottery St, EX11

A delightful family home situated at the end of a quiet residential cul-de-sac yet close to the town centre.

The accommodation includes light and bright living accommodation and benefits from gas-fired central heating. A porch with tiled flooring leads to a hall with a useful storage cupboard and a downstairs WC. The living room has an ornamental fireplace and connects with the conservatory and the separate dining room which overlooks the rear garden. The kitchen has a dual aspect with views and a range of fitted units and worktops with tiled splashbacks. There is a built-in oven and a gas hob with an extractor, a larder, and a built-in cupboard with the gas and electric meters. A rear lobby gives access to additional useful storage space, the front and rear gardens, and to the garage.
Upstairs is a landing with a large window, and 3 good-sized bedrooms with some fine open views across the town to the hills beyond. There is a large shower room with a walk-in shower and an airing cupboard.

Outside
The gardens extend to approximately 0.4 acres and are a particular feature with lawns offering plenty of space for football and swings, established trees and shrubs plus plenty of scope for gardening enthusiasts. Adjacent to the house is a brick paved patio and there is also a brick-built potting shed, a large timber garden storage shed, and a summerhouse.
A previous outline planning permission, which has now lapsed, was granted by East Devon District Council in 2021 for the construction of an additional dwelling in the garden (planning reference 21/1313/OUT). The extent of the gardens also offers potential to extend the existing house and to create additional parking/garaging (subject to planning permission).
