A well-presented detached chalet bungalow, with beautiful gardens, panoramic countryside views and an additional paddock, all in 3.60 acres.
Situation - Positioned close to the Devon, Dorset and Somerset borders sits the pretty village of Chardstock a short distance from the coast.
In this welcoming community, you can enjoy a peaceful lifestyle with country walks on your doorstep, community shop for everyday needs, post office, primary school, church and village hall, which is the focal point that brings residents together regularly. More amenities and a weekly food market can be found in the historic town of Axminster, which is just four miles away and has a mainline railway station on the Exeter to London Waterloo line. Picturesque Lyme Regis and the beautiful Jurassic Coast are about a 20-minute drive away.
Exeter to the west, and Taunton to the north both provide a comprehensive array of retail and leisure facilities and access to the M5. Exeter International Airport offers a number of domestic and international flights.
Description - Hillview is a spacious, detached chalet bungalow offering versatile accommodation. Over the last 20 years this 1960’s bungalow has benefited from two sizable extensions as well as being extensively modernised during this time including; a modern oil-fired central heating system and a recently fitted shaker/style kitchen that was installed at the start of 2022. The kitchen/breakfast room is a good size with plenty of cupboard space, electric oven, space for dishwasher and fridge as well as a breakfast table. There is a useful utility area off the kitchen, providing direct access out to the garden and range of outbuildings. This property offers three reception rooms; including a formal dining room with double doors out to the garden, a triple-aspect sitting room with feature woodburning stove and a conservatory to enjoy the wonderful countryside views.
There are three bedrooms on the ground floor, including the principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and large picture window making the most of the rural outlook. A family bathroom and separate cloakroom also serve the downstairs bedroom. On the first floor are two further bedrooms, both of which are a good size, have built-in wardrobes and enjoy views of the surrounding countryside. Bedroom 4 has an ensuite shower room, while bedroom 5 is light and bright with access to further storage in the eaves.
Outside - The gardens of Hillview are a real feature of the property with various areas to enjoy. There are several seating areas to make the most of the tranquil setting, a wooden gazebo overlooking the valley and an ornamental fishpond. The areas of garden are mainly laid to lawn with an abundance of mature shrubs, climbers and trees, perfect for any keen gardener. There is a greenhouse and space for a vegetable patch alongside the stone outbuildings.
A set of former stone built stables run alongside the property, now offering plenty of covered outside storage space including a woodstore, garden store and potting shed. There is a detached single garage with up and over door and driveway parking for multiple vehicles, accessed via a five bar wooden gate off the private track.
Paddock - Directly opposite the property, across the private track, is an additional paddock, currently maintained as a wildlife meadow. Enclosed with tree lined banks and mature hedging. Gated access from the lane side. In all about 3.26 acres.
Services - Mains electric, water and oil-fired central heating. Private drainage. We have been advised that the current drainage system does not comply with the current legislation. Prospective purchasers will need to consider the cost of a replacement system within any offers. The sellers have obtained a quotation for a replacement treatment plant for guidance purposes.
Standard and Superfast broadband available. EE, Three, O2 and Vodafone mobile networks available outside (Ofcom).
