Description
This superbly appointed character cottage is traditionally built with part stone and part cavity blockwork, all rendered and colourwashed set beneath a tiled roof. Over a period of time the accommodation has been sympathetically extended and refurbished and is now presented to a high standard throughout, with the benefit of double glazing and gas fired central heating. The spacious family accommodation provides a cosy sitting room, well fitted kitchen/breakfast room with utility and shower room off, dining room opening to conservatory and garden and, on the first floor, four double bedrooms, fifth bedroom or study and a family bathroom. There is a generous integral garage/workshop and a secluded garden that backs onto fields.
The cottage is quietly tucked away on the edge of this small rural hamlet on the Somerset/Dorset border, some 2� miles to the South East of Chard and surrounded by glorious unspoilt countryside. Chard is well served with a wide range of amenities including a choice of major supermarkets, smaller retailers, banks, leisure facilities etc and the County Town of Taunton is some 16 miles to the North, with an intercity rail link (London Paddington) and access to the M5 motorway. The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is about 14 miles to the South at Lyme Regis and other nearby places of interest include the historic house of Forde Abbey and National Trust lands at Lamberts Castle.
