Stone built beneath a tiled roof, this delightful character cottage enjoys the benefit of gas fired central heating and modern UPVC double glazing and is presented in excellent order. The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch, double aspect sitting room with fitted gas fire and access to the conservatory that leads in turn to a colourful cottage garden and to the kitchen. At first floor level there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. A gravel driveway provides parking to the front and there is a useful stone built store. The gardens form the perfect setting, lovingly tended over many years and abundantly stocked with a wealth of flowering plants and shrubs including roses and honeysuckle. The rear garden is particularly private with a covered patio, neat lawn and small summerhouse.
The cottage is quietly located just off the centre of the small village of Forton surrounded by traditional countryside and close to the border with Devon and Dorset. Although less than 2 miles from Chard, this is a thriving close knit community with a variety of village activities. Chard itself offers a choice of major supermarkets, smaller retailers, banks, medical and leisure facilities whilst The County town of Taunton is just 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 15 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.
