Outside, to the front is a small garden and at the back, a very pretty enclosed cottage garden with summer house. Under the current ownership the property has been enhanced by the installation of a contemporary kitchen and multi-fuel stove to the lounge, as well as general maintenance and redecoration. It was also only few years earlier that a new gas boiler, new bathroom, new shower enclosure to the en-suite and new electricity consumer unit were installed. Windows are double glazed and there is gas central heating throughout.
Colyton is a pretty and historic town with a village feel with a range of local facilities including health centre, library, convenience stores, fish and chip shop, pubs, tea rooms, a garden centre and a variety of small shops and services. 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 Jurassic Coast and pretty harbour at Axmouth is just 2 miles away and the ever-popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis just 7 miles to the east.
