A beautifully presented three/four bedroom country residence in a secluded rural position.
Holly Cottage is a beautifully presented detached period cottage which has been much improved by the current owners over the last few years. The property enjoys generous and versatile accommodation with three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, a lounge, kitchen/dining room with snug area, utility room, cloakroom, shower room and fourth bedroom/study on the ground floor.
The lounge is a well-proportioned room with French doors to the front terrace and garden and a Minster fireplace with inset wood burning stove. The kitchen/dining room is a super space with the cooking area arranged around the two oven Aga with painted and pine cupboards and matching island unit. The room is L shaped with a fitted fireplace with wood burning stove creating a snug area as well as dining. From the snug the owners have added patio doors into the garden.
To the rear of the kitchen is a good sized utility room with sink, plumbing for a washing machine, space for further appliances and wall and base units. Adjacent is a modern shower room with a separate cloakroom. From the hallway a door leads to Bedroom four or study/office.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes and a family bathroom. Bedroom one also benefits from an en-suite bathroom. There are delightful views over the garden to the unspoilt, beautiful meadow beyond. The property further benefits from oil fired central heating with radiators throughout and modern double glazed windows and external doors.

Holly Cottage is situated in one of the most attractive, peaceful and unspoilt areas of East Devon, close to the borders of Somerset and Dorset, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The villages of Chardstock and Membury are about 2 and 3 miles away respectively, each with a Primary School, Church and a Shop. A wider range of facilities can be found in Chard about 5 miles, and Axminster 6 miles, Honiton is about 12 miles. The county town of Taunton is approximately 19 miles with a comprehensive range of cultural, educational and shopping opportunities, whilst Exeter is within about 30 miles, again with a superb range of amenities. There is M5 access at Taunton and Exeter, both with mainline rail links to London Paddington and an international airport at Exeter. The A303 is within about 6 miles to the north. The highly regarded Colyton Grammar School is within about 10 miles. The area is particularly good for walking or riding with a variety of footpaths, bridle paths and quiet lanes.
The property is approached over the private drive to the gravel parking area and access to the double garage with two up and over doors, power, light and water connected and a storage loft. The current owners have converted part of the garage to make a very useful office with its own rear door. There is an electric charging point on the garage.
The gardens lie predominantly to the front and are private, quiet and south facing with mature trees, hedges and herbaceous borders. There is a delightful terrace at the front of the cottage with a further paved area away from the house providing an ideal place for dining or simply enjoying the scenery. To the back of the garden is a raised decked area looking over the wonderful rural views.
Agents Note: The property has recently had extensive refurbishment on the outside.
