SITUATIONThe Old School Masters House is located in a convenient position on the western edge of the small hamlet of Monkton, which in turn is located about two miles from the bustling market town of Honiton and in an AONB. The property sits adjacent off the A30, therefore has excellent road links and is conveniently placed for the County Towns of Exeter and Taunton, as well as the A303 to London and the South East. It has wonderful panoramic views to the rear towards the River Otter and to Dumpdon Hill and beyond. The Old School Masters House is close to the Otter Valley Dairy Field Kitchen, serving up their renowned Ice Cream and light lunches over looking the valley. Honiton serves a large rural community and is particularly well-known as an antique and book centre as well as having most of the usual multiples such as WH Smith, Boots, Tesco and a variety of shops, restaurants, schools, sports centre/swimming pool, golf club and direct main line rail link to London Waterloo. The county town of Exeter, 16 miles to the West, has a comprehensive range of shopping and sporting facilities, theatres, art centre, main line express rail link to London Paddington and a international airport together with M5 access. The Regency coastal resort of Sidmouth lies some 9 miles to the south with its pebble beach (sand at low tide), long esplanade and range of independent shops. The renowned Colyton Grammar School, one of England's top mixed state schools, is situated about 9 ½ miles away. THE PROPERTYThe Old School Masters House is a delightful Edwardian detached residence which sits on a slightly elevated plot and is traditionally built with brick elevations under a predominantly tiled roof. The property, as its name implies,was the former school master's house to the village school next door, which is now used as a hall/meeting house and holds various events and clubs throughout the year. This handsome home has some unique exterior features such as the stair turret, balcony (accessed from the principal bedroom) and the tile hung gable to the front facade. It has been the subject of a superb programme of renovation and improvement over recent years with the works being completed to a high standard and great care and attention given to the fittings and overall finish. There is a delightful blend of both traditional and contemporary features and fabulous bathroom with a shower cubicle which has an almost Art-Deco feel. The accommodation is flexible in its arrangement and the sun room has, in the past, been used as a third bedroom. There is also a second kitchen and wet room on the ground floor, so this wing could be used a small self-contained annexe.OUTSIDEThe School Masters House has a right of way over a driveway approached from the A30. This passes a parking area and continues to another hardstanding providing further parking. Adjoining this is the detached timber and slate roofed building which comprises a single car port and workshop, with power and light. The gardens at The School Masters House lie to the front and side of the property and are in the main lawned and interspersed with flower and shrub borders. The gardens take full advantage of the lovely country views towards Dumpdon Hill. For more details and to contact: https://realtyww.info/houses_honiton-d196835/for-sale_i69177791
