A beautiful RW Sampson house designed in 1906 in the highly regarded Bickwell Valley in Sidmouth.
Offering a wonderful combination of modern living whilst maintaining all the charm of its time, Roehurst has been extended to offer an abundance of well-appointed accommodation to include a truly inviting reception hall with a period fireplace and imposing staircase to the first floor. There are three reception rooms and a study/library. There is a dining room with adjoining door into the kitchen, a charming family room with an open fire and an attractive range of shelving set within a spacious alcove, and a stunning drawing room with an open fire, windows overlooking the garden, double doors to the garden and a door into the conservatory.
At the rear is the kitchen/breakfast room with wood-burner, Aga, central island with sink and breakfast bar, plus a Belfast-style sink and granite worktops. There is also an additional induction hob, oven, grill, integral fridge and dishwasher. A door opens into a large pantry with additional space for fridge/freezer. Also leading off from the kitchen is a door into the garage and a door into the second porch; ideal as a boot-room, with a second front door and downstairs WC.
Behind the kitchen is a lobby with doors to a large study (currently used as a library) with open fire, a second WC/shower room and a utility room, with a door out to the patio area.
On the first floor are 5 bedrooms and a large landing. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and a luxury en-suite bathroom with large walk-in shower, twin wash hand basins, a free-standing bath and WC. There is a second en-suite bedroom; ideal for guests and the main bathroom has a second door, thus providing en-suite facilities to the third bedroom. The two remaining bedrooms are doubles and there is an additional shower room with rainfall showerhead.
Gardens and Grounds
On approach, the property is accessed via double electric gates. There is an adjoining garage (which houses the boiler) with electric up and over door and Gardener's WC. The detached double garage has twin electric up and over doors, power and light. The brick paved driveway provides parking for multiple cars.
The mature gardens and grounds are well-established and have been beautifully landscaped to include a vegetable garden and various seating areas, including a spacious patio area with water feature and outdoor fireplace.
