A handsome country house and an opportune project, set in extensive grounds near to Sidmouth.
With a classic, heritage frontage, white rendered elevations, distinctive gables and bay window projections, Warren House is an appealing semi-rural family home. A programme of enhancement and interior renovation would see the realisation of a fine country home showcasing a bespoke living environment of accordingly appropriate grandeur with the requisite 21st century styling.On the ground floor, the porch opens into a reception hall, where characteristic Minton tiling presents an encouraging start to the internal tour of this otherwise blank canvass. Reception areas currently comprise a well-proportioned sitting room, with fireplace and French doors providing a connection to the outside setting, and an adjacent dining room with garden outlook. The kitchen/dining room extends into the bay window alcove, with an antique stove set within the chimney breast recess, and a rear lobby and cloakroom complete the existing lower level layout. A central staircase rises to a roomy first floor landing which gives access to four equally-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom.Garden and groundsA low-level stone wall, backed by copper beech hedging, fronts the roadway, with vehicular access to the property along a length of driveway. Garden at the frontage is laid to lawn bordered by mature shrubs and trees, with open routes to either side of the house to reach the extensive rear garden.The grounds at Warren House offer endless potential to create a stunning outdoor environment, with the option to retain much of the mature plant and perennial specimens. The immediate al fresco setting offers an area of grass interspersed with trees and shrubbery, with a pathway flanked byflowering and fragrant borders. A line of majestic conifer trees marks the division point to the expanse of naturalistic grounds, dotted with trees,offering an adventure playground for children's exploration, and a magnet for wildlife. Views beyond the grounds take in the glorious Devon terrainproviding a wonderful sense of a borrowed landscape
