Charming and delightful 3 bedroom character cottage presented to a high standard throughout and enjoying a tranquil rural setting with open country views. Set in grounds approaching ½ Acre EPC: Band D

This lovely period cottage has ancient origins but in recent times has been extended and comprehensively refurbished to create a stylish country home with a wealth of character and all the benefits of modern living. Attractively presented with rendered elevations set beneath a slated roof the property enjoys a South facing aspect with views across its own grounds towards distant countryside. The accommodation, as shown on the floorplan, is cosy and welcoming, providing two double aspect reception rooms, cottage style kitchen with separate utility off and cloakroom to the ground floor, with three double bedrooms, two en-suite, and a family bathroom to the first floor. Oil fired central heating is installed, supplemented by a wood burning stove in the sitting room, together with modern double glazing throughout.
The cottage is approached from a quiet country lane with a gravelled driveway providing extensive parking. The garden and grounds provide a perfect setting for this special property, carefully tended over the years with extensive lawns, well stocked herbaceous borders and neat vegetable beds. The lower part of the garden is a former orchard and is under planted with a wealth of Spring bulbs with snowdrops, daffodils and bluebells. A number of outbuildings include a purpose built studio and workshop, timber clad under a slate roof, with light and power, an almost new greenhouse and a useful block built garden store. There are a variety of mature hedges and trees and an added bonus is a small plot of land opposite the cottage with an area of hardstanding. The whole area is thought to extend to an estimated 0.5 Acre.

Peacefully located on the very Southern extremity of the Blackdown Hills Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the cottage enjoys an enviable position with views over surrounding unspoilt countryside yet is only 1 mile from the thriving East Devon village of Chardstock. Local amenities include a general store/post office, pub, primary school, church and a community hall that is home to a host of activities. The popular market town of Axminster is only 5 miles to the South with intercity rail service Exeter/Waterloo and the World Heritage Jurassic Coast is a further 6 miles away at Lyme Regis with its renowned Cobb Harbour. Both the A303 and M5 are within easy reach and there are excellent regional airports at Exeter and Bristol.
