The impressive residence is full of character features such as striking oak flooring, feature fireplace and exposed beams. The residence, arranged over two floors, with its exemplary separate 2 bedroom lodge cottage. The Lodge carries a theme of space and light throughout.
The large entrance hall interconnects the charming ground floor living spaces with a striking wooden staircase to the first floor landing with under-the-stairs cloakroom. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the open plan multi-aspect kitchen/breakfast room, drawing room, dining room and adjoining conservatory.
The kitchen has a rustic charm with its oil fired Aga and chimney, exposed beams and matching wall and base units. The separate island with storage underneath provides further storage with one aspect overlooking the gardens and pantry. The dining room and breathtaking conservatory have access to the rear gardens via double patio doors and provide the perfect location to relax and entertain guests. The drawing room, with its character fireplace and exposed beams, enjoys an aspect over the side of the home and continues the open plan feel into the family room and its adjoining utility room. The cosy study over looking the garden, and additional cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
The expansive first floor landing and balcony continue the exemplary layout and design of the home. There are four sizeable bedrooms on this floor beginning with the master bedroom. This large room comprises a dressing room, balcony, built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom with a full white three piece suite and shower. The guest bedroom also contains an en suite wet room with low level WC, pedestal wash hand basin. The additional two bedrooms benefit from built-in storage and pleasant outlooks over the area and gardens. The family bathroom servicing this floor has a panelled corner bath with shower over, wash hand basin and low level WC.
The two bedroom lodge cottage comes complete with two bedrooms, a kitchen and sitting room which benefits from a woodburner and family bathroom, all arranged over two floors. The lodge also has a paved patio outside perfect for dining outdoors in the gardens.
Garden and Grounds
On approach, the front of the residence leads to the side enclosed patio area ideal for al fresco dining and entertainment. There is off-road parking available on the gravel driveway for a number of cars leading to the triple garage port and its adjoining workshop. The prominent road corner location also includes access to the rear gardens and separate orchard, all bordered by mature trees, flowering shrubs and rich flower beds. The front door can be reached through an attractive covered entrance porch.
The gardens, of about 3.8 acres, are mostly laid to lawn and well maintained offering a degree of privacy.
Furze House is situated in a rural location on the edge of Woodbury Common in a desirable suburb of East Devon which is merely 7 miles from the coast towns of Exmouth and Budleigh Salterton. The home sits on the edge of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty known for its relatively unspoilt countryside and far reaching views.
The nearby towns offer convenient local amenities with the vibrant cathedral city of Exeter offering more extensive options and leisure activities just 9 miles away. The region benefits from various leisure options catering to various tastes from the world renowned Woodbury Park Golf & Country Club, hiking the Jurassic Coast, walking, horseriding, sailing and more.
Belying its private location, the family home is perfectly located for Exeter's mainline train stations with regular trains to Bristol and London Paddington. The accommodation is also near to the A30 and the M5 which leads to the national motorway network and beyond. There are national and international flights available from Exeter International Airport. The home has access to three beaches as well as the rest of the Devon coast.
The region offers a wealth of respected state and private schools such as Lady Seaward's Church of England Primary School and West Hill Primary School. They are both rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted. The highly regarded Exeter University is also within 9 miles.
