Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
This very special period cottage dates from the 18th century, robustly built with stone elevations set beneath a fibre slate roof, and offers cosy and welcoming accommodation with a wealth of character. There are two charming reception rooms both with woodburning stoves and an open aspect across the garden terrace, a well fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and range cooker, together with a separate utility and cloakroom. With a staircase at either end, the first floor access is particularly flexible with three generous double bedrooms, all overlooking the garden, and an excellent family bathroom. Oil fired central heating is installed.
The gardens and grounds are largely informal and overlooked by a lovely South facing terrace that catches all the sun making it the perfect place to relax. Mainly lawned with mature hedge boundaries, a wealth of established trees and bisected by a small stream the garden is a haven for birds and frequently visited by wildlife. Springtime in particular is stunning, the garden is covered in bluebells, daffodils and wild garlic. There is a wide parking area below the house and at the other end of the property a single garage and pull in. The whole area extends to just under 1 Acre. Cottages like this are rarely available offering peace and tranquillity without isolation.
Long Orchard occupies a secluded and private location in this almost hidden valley in an unspoilt and sought after corner of East Devon, yet is only 10 minutes drive from the traditional market town of Axminster with a wide range of amenities. These include a choice of major supermarkets, numerous smaller specialist retailers, educational and leisure facilities and an inter-city rail service on the London Waterloo line. The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is just 10 miles away at Lyme Regis with its iconic Cobb and harbour and the cathedral city of Exeter is only 25 miles to the West.
