Set in a wonderful position on the edge of Chulmleigh, a very well-presented detached house with beautifully landscaped gardens and fine views.
Situation
Greenways is superbly set in a tucked away position on the southern edge of the popular small town of Chulmleigh and enjoys a wonderful outlook over open fields. The town offers a good range of amenities which include a health centre, dentist, shops and schooling to secondary level together with an 18-hole short golf course. Eggesford railway station is only two miles from the property and provides a regular service to Exeter and Barnstaple on the Tarka Line.
The surrounding countryside is typical rolling Devon landscape and the property is within easy motoring distance of Exmoor National Park to the north and Dartmoor National Park to the south, both renowned for their spectacular scenery and excellent walking and riding. The North Devon coast, with its dramatic rugged coastline, scenery and beaches is also within easy reach by car.
The regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 17 miles to the north west and offers an excellent range of amenities whilst the thriving Cathedral and University City of Exeter is approximately 22 miles to the south. Exeter Airport is about 32 miles and provides a regular domestic service to London City Airport and beyond.
Description
Believed to have been built in the late 1940s primarily of brick cavity construction with a more recent block cavity extension, Greenways is an individual detached house set in a good-sized and level plot on the edge of Chulmleigh. The house will be found to be well-presented and maintained throughout as are the excellent and level landscaped gardens which take full advantage of the fine views leading away over rolling fields and the cricket ground.

The KITCHEN is fitted with a matching range of limewashed, oak fronted units with worktops over and single drainer sink. Integrated appliances include a Miele dishwasher and oven with Bosch hob and hood above. Matching wall mounted units. Off the kitchen is a UTILITY ROOM with a stainless steel sink unit, worktop and plumbing for washing machine below. Wall-mounted boiler, space for white goods and door to outside.
The LIVING ROOM is a lovely, triple aspect room with an oak floor and wonderful views, especially through the glazed, sliding doors to the patio. There is a LPG fired 'wood burning style' stove set on a slate hearth in one corner. Through glazed double doors is a dual-aspect DINING ROOM with a brick fireplace and mantel with a tiled hearth.
On the FIRST FLOOR the landing leads to 4 BEDROOMS and a BATHROOM. BEDROOM 1 is a good-sized double room that takes full advantage of the views and has a built-in wardrobe and a vanity wash basin. BEDROOM 2 is also a double room with a built-in wardrobe and a fine outlook. BEDROOMS 3 and 4 are both single rooms with bedroom 4 having an airing cupboard and is currently used as a study. The fully-tiled BATHROOM is fitted with a modern suite comprising a corner panelled spa bath, pedestal wash basin, shower cubicle with mixer shower, radiator and WC.

From Cricket Close, double gates lead onto the driveway that provides ample parking and access to the detached GARAGE/WORKSHOP (21' x 9'8 ) with power and light connected and door to the side.
The large, level gardens surround the house and have been beautifully landscaped and maintained. There are lawned, paved and gravelled areas interspersed and bordered by thoughtfully planted mature lower beds and mature trees.
