An attractive four bedroom attached cottage in a pretty rural location with incredible views and an orchard paddock all sat in about half an acre.
Brookview is an attractive well-proportioned home that offers flexible accommodation as a family home, multi-generational living or a second/holiday home.
The property comprises of an attractive attached cottage which used to form part of one of the outbuildings in connection with Colhayne Farm before being converted in the later part of the twentieth century. The property is of traditional construction with stone and rendered elevations under a tiled roof and has glorious views which can be enjoyed from all the principal rooms, as well as the two balconies off the snug and fourth bedroom. For room dimensions please refer the accompanying floor plan.
Brookview has been the subject of a more recent programme of refurbishment in 2017 and offers well-presented and comfortable accommodation. Worthy of particular mention is the modern fitted kitchen/dining room which is beautifully appointed and has integral appliances, French doors to a Juliette balcony, and offers a great deal of character with its large brick fireplace, exposed stone wall and ceiling beam.
Brookview nestles on the slopes of the Umborne Valley, which in turn is located in the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty amongst some of the county's most picturesque countryside. The property enjoys far reaching views and beautiful walks emanate virtually from one's doorstep over the fields and along the Umborne Brook which meanders through the foot of the valley. Although semi-rural, the property is readily accessible being within a short distance of the A35 and only three miles from the popular town of Colyton which has a beautiful medieval church, comprehensive range of shopping and recreational amenities, and the renowned Colyton Grammar School which is located on the outskirts of the country village of Colyford. Further to the south is the magnificent World Heritage Jurassic Coast at Lyme Bay which is a popular destination for tourists due to its dramatic scenery, handsome coastal towns and fabulous walks over the South West Coastal Path.
The busy market town of Axminster lies about five miles to the east and has a wide range of shops, restaurants and supermarkets, as well as a main line rail link to London Waterloo. The Cathedral City of Exeter is approximately 23 miles to the west and has an excellent shopping centre, food hall, sport and leisure facilities, university, main line express rail link to London Paddington and an international airport. From Shute there is easy access to the M5, A303 and A35.
Brookview has a right of way over the neighbouring property which leads to a hardstanding providing parking for several vehicles. Beyond this is a bank which rises to the east. A delightful feature of the property is the orchard paddock to the opposite side of the lane which extends to about half an acre. This is planted with various fruit trees and there is a large summer house and decked terrace which is strategically positioned to take in the views over the Umborne Brook, as well as the afternoon and evening sunshine.
