FAYFIELD
Imagine waking up to incredible sea views. Such a breathtaking panorama demands an equally exceptional property. This spacious family home takes full advantage of the generous hillside plot, with planning permission for a further 4 bedroom property.
Perched high above the town, this imposing 1920’s family home is at one with its hillside location.
The views get better the higher you get, so you’ll love waking up to the far reaching coastal views from all three of its double bedrooms. The view from the conservatory, sun room and front terrace are just as enticing. That's because from the ground floor you can take in the wonderful mature gardens in the foreground.
The views and the location, which is within walking distance of the town centre and the beach, make this a superbly versatile home.
It could be your ideal coastal retreat. Whether you’re looking to put down roots in Dawlish or find a homely weekend getaway, it could be just right.
It could also be a popular holiday let - with the space to welcome large families or groups. The easy access to Dawlish station (with connections to London Paddington via Exeter St Davids) certainly won’t be overlooked.
The ground floor has two spacious reception rooms - both with sea views and with patio doors from the dining room leading to the sun room. There’s also a homely and welcoming kitchen / breakfast room with a traditional log burner as the focal point. The laundry room sits just off the kitchen and there’s a handy shower room on the ground floor - so you can wash off the sand after a day at the beach. The first floor has three double bedrooms, all with stunning sea views and there is a spacious family bathroom.
The property sits in generous grounds, with access from the quiet no-through road via a long sweeping driveway. At the top of the drive there’s a garage and carport, along with parking for several cars. There are delightful gardens to the rear and this is also where plans have been approved for a further 4 bedroom detached property, with a built-in double garage.
This planning permission does give you options and plenty to think about. You could develop the property and operate it as a separate on-site holiday let, giving you an additional income stream whilst you and the family enjoyed the main house.
If you are thinking of Fayfield as a family home, the property is just over 5 miles away from the "Good" Hazeldown Primary School is important and in the area Dawlish Community College in the town or Teignmouth Community School a little further along the coast.
Even without the added bonus of the planning permission, the superb, spacious accommodation combined with the sought-after location will make this property popular with discerning families. But with the planning permission it makes it an unbeatable opportunity you wouldn’t want to miss.
