DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
'Idmiston Halt' is a very well specified detached bungalow, built along with only two other similar properties in the late 1990's, just off a quiet road in the estuary village of Starcross, near Exeter. The bungalow enjoys a particularly spacious layout out and generous parking and gardens, all of which are quite rare finds in today's property market.
The property is of traditional construction, under a tiled roof, and benefits extensive UPVC double glazing, for low maintenance and gas fired central heating.
The small village of Starcross lies on the A379 that runs from Exeter to Dawlish. Local amenities such as a post office, store and primary school are all available within the village and particularly useful rail and bus links to Exeter and the seaside town of Dawlish are also within easy level walking distance. For sea lovers, there is an excellent local sailing club and deep water mooring available in the estuary. There is also a small harbour, with slipway approximately one mile away.
The City of Exeter is approximately 8 miles distant, where all major amenities, including supermarkets, a main line train station and an array of scholastic and leisure facilities can be found.
DIRECTIONS
Take the A379 from Exeter (signposted Dawlish) and proceed through the village of Kenton. On entering Starcross turn right (just before 'Chimneys' guest house) into Staplake Road. Continue along the road, past the left and right hand bends and Idmiston Halt can be found a short distance further on, on the right hand side (it is the third bungalow from the far end).
