Summary - MANOR HOUSE OLD MANOR GARDENS COLYFORD COLYTON EX24 6TZ
4 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
Tucked into mature walled gardens near beach and outstanding schools.
Grade II listed 17th-century thatched manor — consent required for changes
Manor House is a rare, character-rich family home set within mature walled gardens near Colyford village and Seaton Beach. Mostly 17th century in origin, the property retains period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces, leaded windows and a wide oak staircase — that create a warm, historic atmosphere across generously proportioned rooms.
The house provides four double bedrooms, three reception rooms and three bathrooms across an extremely large internal area (approximately 3,453 sq ft) and sits on about 0.34 acres of formal lawns, terraces and mature planting. Practical upgrades include double glazing added after 2002 and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators.
Important practical points: Manor House is Grade II listed and semi‑detached, so alterations will require listed‑building consent and may be restricted or costly. The thatched Devon reed roof and stone construction are beautiful but demand specialist maintenance and ongoing insurance considerations. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
This home will suit buyers seeking a distinctive period residence with generous indoor and outdoor space close to good schools (Colyton Grammar nearby), village amenities and coastal walks. A full inspection, up‑to‑date services report and pre‑purchase advice on listed‑building constraints are recommended before committing.
