A timeless Edwardian gem with magnificent views, providing substantial, flexible family accommodation and an integrated, self-contained, two bedroom cottage style annexe, ideal for multi-generational living or with income potential.

Situation Commanding a prominent, elevated position, on the popular Salcombe Hill side of Sidmouth, Alma House enjoys distant views over the Town and beyond towards Peak Hill and Mutter's Moor with many rooms affording glimpses of the sea and the stunning Jurassic coastline. The property benefits from an enviable orientation bathing the house with natural light throughout the day.

About Alma House is a striking property externally, with rendered, colour washed elevations and period style double glazed sash windows, under a new slate roof. It combines an attractive blend of classic architecture and sympathetic modern upgrading. The current owners have undertaken a comprehensive programme of improvements and repairs in the last 7 years, which has included new insulated slate roof, rain water goods and lead work, installation of the heritage, double glazed, sash windows, upgraded electrics, a remodelled guest suite with new ensuite bathroom in addition to sympathetic general repairs, redecoration and new floor coverings.

Main House Internally, the house exudes a warmth of character with bright, sunny, well proportioned rooms, grand high ceilings and original period features. A welcoming hallway greets visitors and leads to the main reception rooms, with an elegant, central staircase ascending to the upper floors. There is a modern wood burner in the living room and gas central heating throughout. All six first floor bedrooms are double rooms, with two suites and two further bathrooms. In addition, there is a fantastic 30' x 20' (approx) second floor family room, which could add to the bedroom tally or is ideal as a teenage living room, gym/yoga type exercise room, hobby space or office.

Annexe The Annexe provides multiple options with intercommunicating doors on both the first and ground floor and, as such, can be entirely consolidated within the main accommodation or separated, as a guest wing, for example, or, as is currently the case, for multi-generational family living. In previous ownership, it has been used for income as a holiday let and self contained letting unit. It has independent services and is rated separately for council tax.

External The property features a detached double garage with parking and short gated driveway leading down to the gravelled main driveway. The grounds extend to over half an acre and offer remarkable seclusion in such convenient proximity to the Town whilst enjoying sunny aspects and beautiful sunsets over the picturesque wooded hills of Mutter's Moor.

Summary Alma House presents buyers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Edwardian history, with all the comforts of modern living.
