The pictures say it all! Beautifully presented detached character house set on edge of small hamlet backing onto open farmland, spacious 3 bedroomed accommodation well designed around a stunning entrance hall, numerous outbuildings, garaging, off road parking for several vehicles, gardens and even a home office or garden pub viewing a must!

This detached former toll cottage is situated on the edge of the small hamlet of Chenson, adjoining the A377, and within easy reach of the nearby town of Chulmleigh which has an excellent range of amenities and facilities, with Crediton being about 11 miles to the south-east and Barnstaple about 24 miles north. There is also the Tarka railway line linking Barnstaple with Crediton and Exeter with a stop at nearby Eggesford. The property has undergone a major programme of improvement and modernisation over the past few years, leaving little for a new owner to do except enjoy!

The accommodation is very well proportioned, spotlessly presented, and well designed around a stunning entrance hall which instantly gives a wow factor, plus a useful ground floor WC, essential for a house like this. The living/dining room has a fireplace with a wood burner, and the original 3 bay window which is a lovely feature. The kitchen has been well fitted in a modern contemporary style, and has a Zanussi double electric oven, and 5 ring gas hob with hood over and doors to a secluded BBQ area. Off the kitchen is a utility room with plumbing for an automatic washing machine and this makes an ideal rear entrance for day to day use. To the first floor, the stunning staircase splits to 2 landings. The first leads to the large master bedroom, which has 2 double built-in wardrobes, a large 3 bay window, plus luxury en-suite shower room and a dressing area. The 2 further bedrooms have Jack and Jill access to the luxury shower room.

Outside, the property is set in good sized gardens which have been incredibly well thought out and created by the current owners. Twin electric gates lead in from the main road to an ample, tarmaced off road parking area for several vehicles including space for a motorhome or caravan. There are a range of outbuildings, including a large, insulated timber workshop/garage (approx. 6m x 3m) which has lighting, 13amp power, and a useful shower room! Theres a car port and a second smaller garage. Behind a small gated fence is a level lawn (approx. 16m x 7.5m with a small pond, paved pathways and a covered area ideal for a small hot-tub. To the end of the garden is a wonderful garden room which is currently a superb man cave with bar and wood-burner but equally could be an office or studio. Theres power and lighting plus doors out onto a paved, covered patio. In addition, there are further seating areas closer to the house, still with plenty of privacy. Across the road is a further area of garden, accessed via a wide 5 bar gate. There is an outbuilding (old), grassed areas, and mature trees giving great privacy and this could be utilised further by a new owner. The house backs onto open farmland to the side and rear and to the road on the other.
