This individual chalet-style bungalow occupies a prime elevated position on a plot of around 4.3 acres in a peaceful rural setting high above the village of Dalwood.

The three to five-bedroom detached house sits on a quiet country lane and benefits from striking views over the Yarty Valley while being only a mile and a half from the centre of Dalwood, four miles from Axminster and Honiton is just six miles away.

The property, named Eastwood, has been welcomed to the open market for the first time in more than 50 years and combines the tranquillity associated with rural living with a wealth of modern fixtures and fittings, spacious room sizes, and outstanding views. The accommodation offers a good degree of flexibility in its current format

The house was originally built in the 1920s as a modest two-bedroom bungalow before being extended pre-1960 and again in more recent years to create a sizable annexe for family members. This has since been reinstated back into one residence but with some thought and relevant permissions, the property offers an opportunity for multi-generational living.

Inside, on the ground floor, there is a cosy snug, formal dining room, two double bedrooms and a beautiful dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room which was remodelled by the Colyton Kitchen Company in 2018. The main bathroom was updated in 2021 and now features a striking contemporary bathroom suite with a separate shower. A few steps lead to the former annexe where there is an impressive L-shaped sitting room with a woodburning stove and doors leading to the terrace.

On the first floor, there is a double bedroom, a shower room, and split-level access to a converted attic room, which is currently serving as a study.

Outside, informal gardens wrap around three sides of the property and are interspersed with well-established trees, shrubs, a wildlife pond and seasonal flowers. There is also an impressive, terraced patio. Beyond the garden, there are four paddocks, a stable block, and a good mix of timber-framed outbuildings comprising a feed store, a hay barn and a large workshop.
