Location
Cumbria enjoys a wonderfully positioned setting along Sidmouth Road in Aylesbeare, a peaceful rural parish lying between the cathedral city of Exeter and the celebrated Jurassic Coast. This part of East Devon is highly sought after for its gently rolling countryside, open farmland, and the rare balance it offers between tranquillity and accessibility.

Aylesbeare itself is a small and welcoming village, known for its attractive landscapes and strong community spirit. The parish church of St Mary’s, the village hall, and a network of footpaths across farmland and heathland
contribute to its traditional Devon charm. Much of the surrounding area forms part of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, providing exceptional opportunities for walking, cycling, and riding. Nearby Newton Poppleford offers day-to-day conveniences including a village shop and a primary school, while the elegant Regency seaside town of Sidmouth lies
to the south, offering a wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants,
and cultural attractions.

To the north, Exeter provides an extensive selection of retail, dining, and leisure facilities, along with its historic cathedral quarter, theatres, and riverside walks. The city is also home to the University of Exeter and a number of highly regarded state and independent schools. Transport links are excellent, with the A30 and M5 providing swift access across the South West and beyond, while Exeter Airport offers domestic and international flights. Rail services from Exeter St David’s and Exeter Central connect directly to London, Bristol, and major regional centres, making the area ideal
for those seeking countryside living without compromising on connectivity.

Leisure opportunities are abundant, from the vast heathland of Woodbury Common - perfect for walking, cycling, and horse riding to the nearby beaches of Sidmouth, Budleigh Salterton, and Exmouth, which offer sailing,
coastal paths, and family-friendly seaside pursuits. Golfers are well catered for too, with Woodbury Park Golf & Country Club and several other courses close by.

THE PROPERTY
Nestled in beautifully tended grounds, Cumbria is an individual detached home offering bright and spacious accommodation all arranged to make the most of its countryside views. As well as having a rural outlook, Cumbria is well placed for easy access to major road links.

Cumbria has a distinct homely feel, enjoying a rural outlook over gardens which are mostly laid to lawn with several mature shrubs and trees.
The back door, which is the most practical door to use, leads through to handy utility area, downstairs cloakroom and into the kitchen. Equipped with a number of wall, base and drawer units, as well as an integrated fridge/
freezer, this practical kitchen leads into the dining area with windows overlooking the garden – a perfect space for entertaining and family life. The half landing splits and leads to a bedroom and shower room whilst another short flight of stairs lead to two further bedrooms, both with windows looking onto the garden and built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom has
a separate shower and bath, heated towel rail, tiled walls and floor.

Cumbria is a superb home with huge scope for further development subject to the necessary planning consents.

OUTSIDE
Outside is a delight, to the front is the gated drive providing plenty of off street parking, an orchard with numerous apple trees and a double garage with electricity. To the rear, the garden is mostly laid to lawn with numerous
established shrubs and trees. There is a patio directly outside the back of the house offering a raised seating area maximizing the delightful views over the neighboring countryside.
