A detached Woolaway bungalow set on a generous plot of just over a third of an acre in a lovely location in the pretty village of Kilmington, close to local walks. The property is in good condition and has been updated under the current ownership. Set in beautiful gardens, the bungalow can continue to be inhabited without change. Alternatively, there is potential for redevelopment of the site with a variety of options, including extending the existing property or complete replacement with either one large dwelling or two properties with the land being split up. All of this would of course, be subject to obtaining the necessary planning consent. The property is situated along a leafy lane with a protected common opposite.

The current accommodation comprises three bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen/dining room, hallway and lounge with large double glazed windows providing plenty of light. Outside, to the front is a very pretty garden with mature shrubs and small trees providing a good deal of privacy. There is gated parking to one side with a additional wooden gates to the far side providing direct entry to the rear garden along the side of the property.

The garden is fairly level with the largest part at the back of the property. A good deal of work was carried out to re-establish the lovely garden that we see now, with raised planting beds for fruits and vegetables along with grassy areas, fruit trees, a large seating area near the house and a small wild flower patch towards the far end. In addition, there are several out buildings, one of which is block and timber built and would make a great garden studio/hobby room. There is a garage to the side of the house with power and light offering ideal work shop space, a painted timber shed (12' x 8') as well as a large covered storage area behind the garage.

The village of Kilmington is situated less than 2 miles from the centre of the market town of Axminster, which offers a good range of daily needs including banks, post office, shops, leisure centre and cafes as well as a railway station with regular services to London Waterloo and Exeter. The village has an active community with many clubs and societies and boasts facilities including a primary school, children's play area, two pubs, two Churches, an excellent farm shop, great walking (and dog walking) at nearby Shute woods and a cricket ground and tennis court.
