This delightful little cottage is centrally situated within a short walk of shops, pubs and cafes and yet so tucked away that you wouldn't know it was there! The property is accessed through a doorway which leads through an internal passage between two other cottages and pops out at the back where this delightful little cottage sits waiting for a visit. The current owners have carried out a programme of repair and improvements within their tenure and the property is very well presented throughout with two bedrooms on the first floor, re-fitted kitchen and bathroom, sitting room and conservatory all at ground level. There is an enclosed courtyard garden at the back. Currently let for holidays, this is an excellent investment or cosy first home.

Colyton is a pretty and historic town with a village feel with a range of local facilities including health centre, library, butchers, baker, convenience stores, fish and chip shop, pubs, tea rooms, a garden centre and a variety of small shops and services. The beautiful Norman Church is the centre point of the town, which is most famous for the 1685 Monmouth Rebellion. On the edge of the town is the Seaton tramway station which operates services throughout the summer along the Axe Estuary, linking Colyton and Seaton, which is very popular with tourists. The nearby Colyton Grammar School is another draw for the area as the school consistently appears in the top 10 Grammar Schools in the country. The Jurassic Coast and pretty harbour at Axmouth is just over 2.5 miles away, with the seaside resort of Lyme Regis to the east, just 7 miles and Sidmouth to the west just under 11 miles.
