Vine Tree Cottage is a beautifully presented vine covered, three-bedroom semi-detached stone cottage with a thoughtfully updated interior. This property is ideal for those seeking a tranquil countryside retreat with convenient access to local amenities.

Upon entering you are welcomed into a functional hallway, currently used as a home office, with ample storage for coats and boots, offering a practical and versatile space. Just off the hall, a well-appointed downstairs shower room provides added convenience for family and guests alike. The heart of the home is the spacious sitting room, featuring stunning exposed beams and a striking inglenook fireplace that exudes warmth and character. This inviting space is perfect for relaxing evenings or entertaining guests. To the rear of the property, the generously proportioned modern kitchen is a true delight. Boasting stylish cabinetry, granite worktops, and smart modern tiling, this kitchen is both functional and aesthetically pleasing with views out to the garden. There is plenty of room for a large dining table and chairs, making it an ideal spot for family meals and gatherings. The kitchen has the added benefit of underfloor heating. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is a large and comfortable conservatory, offering additional living space filled with natural light and providing a delightful view of the garden.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three well-sized bedrooms, each offering a peaceful retreat. The master bedroom benefits from a built-in wardrobe, providing excellent storage. A spacious family bathroom with power shower over the bath, and a large linen cupboard on the landing add to the home’s practicality. The loft is fully insulated. 

Neutrally decorated throughout, this charming cottage has been meticulously maintained, featuring new radiators and double glazing to the rear of the property, to ensure year-round comfort. For a cottage, this home is exceptionally light and bright, adding to its appeal.

To the rear, the lovingly maintained garden is a true highlight, mainly laid to lawn with beautifully planted borders that add bursts of colour and charm. It offers a private and serene outdoor space, perfect for relaxation or alfresco dining. The space is fully enclosed, private, and also benefits from a single garage and off-street parking, providing secure and convenient storage for vehicles and outdoor equipment.

Please be aware this property falls within the Buckland Dinham Conservation Area. 

AGENTS NOTE

• The new radiators are Rointe Kyros Energy efficient heaters and the instruction manual describes them as "digital electronic radiators that achieve and exceed all efficiency regulations. They have low consumption due to patented Fuzzy Logic Energy Control technology.

• The Conservatory roof was replaced in 2016 with double glazed glass panels. Our vendors have a certificate that states the details have been registered with the Double Glazing & Conservatory Ombudsman Scheme (DGCOS).
