Description
views and within easy reach of local amenities, open countryside and the Jurassic coast.
Traditionally built with part brick and part rendered elevations set beneath a mainly tiled roof, the property has been updated and extended over time to create the comfortable and versatile home on offer today. The current layout provides a wide reception hall with stairs rising, cosy sitting room with wood burner and lovely triple aspect dining/family room with double door to the conservatory. The kitchen is well fitted with modern high gloss units and the remainder of the ground floor offers two generous double bedrooms and a shower room, together with a self-contained annexe suite of double bedroom with garden access and en-suite shower. There is a superb loft conversion at first floor level creating a master suite with far reaching views, lots of storage and a large bathroom. Double glazed throughout and with the benefit of oil fired central heating, this is a really versatile property with a superb rural outlook over its own garden and open countryside beyond.
The property enjoys an elevated position in a small rural hamlet on the Somerset/Dorset border with a south westerly aspect across its own grounds, the open countryside beyond and the neighbouring village of South Chard. Local amenities include a small supermarket, pub and primary school, with the nearby town of Chard catering for most day to day needs. There is an intercity rail service (London Waterloo) at Axminster or Crewkerne, both 7 miles distant and the World Heritage Jurassic Coast is within easy reach at Lyme Regis.
The property is approached over a private lane with double gates leading to a wide tarmac driveway and parking area, together with a double garage with garden WC to the rear. The plot slopes gently south west with extensive lawns, mature shrubs and trees, lots of Spring bulbs, vegetable beds and a small, fully fenced paddock. There is also a very useful workshop/studio building with water and power. The whole area extends to an estimated 2.36 acre.
