Maycoes , EX12 A charming cottage hidden away in an elevated, private position with lovely rural views.

Branscombe Mouth Beach 0.6 mile, 6.9 miles, 9.2 miles, Exeter Airport 15.8 miles, Exeter city centre (Paddington 2 hours 7 minutes) 21 miles (Distances and time approximate) Situation & Amenities Maycoes is situated within the AONB on the edge of the coastal village of Branscombe, with Sidmouth and Honiton 6.9 and 9.2 miles away respectively. The property is not far from good road links, with a fast rail service from Exeter to Paddington (just over 2 hours) and the daily flight from Exeter to London City (1 hour). Maycoes Dating from the 1930s, Maycoes is a charming, detached cottage with two storeys, painted and rendered walls, and a natural slate roof, possibly blue-green Devon slate. The cottage is hidden away behind thick, mature hazel hedging in a sheltered position cut into the side of a valley, with mature 4 1 2 trees and a small copse of mixed broadleaf trees providing complete privacy. It looks out from its elevated position across a delightful rural valley with picture postcard, westerly views over countryside and the northern end of Branscombe G village. The cottage has two reception rooms off a central entrance hall. Both rooms have fireplaces, parquet floors and windows on two sides including French windows opening to the terrace, which means that both rooms are light and airy. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke painted timber units including a dresser, electric hob and oven, and a walk-in larder. On the first floor are four bedrooms; a good-sized double, two smaller doubles and a single. All the bedrooms have windows on two sides with lovely views looking across the garden and across the valley.

Garden & Grounds The cottage is approached on foot down a paved path from the lane, which leads to the terrace at the front of the cottage, passing a small stand of trees including an Evergreen Ash and a Holm Oak, and the lawn planted with two young Wild Cherry trees. The terrace faces west and south with uninterrupted views of the valley and catches the sun from morning to evening. To one side and accessed by a short flight of steps is a copse of mixed broadleaf trees. Space and scope exist (subject to planning consent) to put in a new vehicle entrance to a parking area in the woodland. At the rear of the cottage is the back porch and gardener’s WC, with a two room, brick-built outbuilding suitable for fuel and garden tools. In all the garden and woodland extend to about 0.38 acres.
