Description:
A superbly presented Grade II listed thatched cottage. Farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room with Rayburn, sitting room, drawing room, 2 bedrooms, further guest bedroom/study, bathroom & cloakroom/wet room. Pretty private rear garden & garage/store.
SITUATION
The property is situated in a lane side location in the sought after village of Stoodleigh. Stoodleigh is situated north of the Exe Valley, surrounded by rolling countryside and beautiful woodland, equidistant from the north and south Devon coasts. The village has a Norman church, a number of working farms, attractive cottages and country houses. Village amenities include: Stoodleigh village club with its beautiful beer garden and home cooked food, the village cricket club and various village social clubs and community events.
This rural village is situated just 6 miles north of the thriving market town of Tiverton. Tiverton has a hospital, regenerated Pannier Market, 4 supermarkets, including Marks and Spencer, and a good selection of specialist shops and services. There is also a Golf Club and Leisure Centre including a swimming pool and tennis courts. The area is superb for riding and walking with Exmoor National Park just a few miles to the north and the beaches of North Devon easily reached via the North Devon Link Road.
School facilities in the area are very good, with popular village schools, East Devon College, and the highly regarded independent school, Blundell's (www.blundells.org). Stoodleigh is within the catchment area of Blundell's which provides education for both boys and girls from the age of 3 years to 18 years. Taunton and Exeter provide a wider choice of private schools.
Communications are excellent. The A361, North Devon Link Road, links to Junction 27 of the M5 and Tiverton Parkway railway station, providing fast regular Intercity services to London Paddington and the Midlands. Both Bristol Airport and Exeter Airport are within an hour's car drive.
DESCRIPTION
The property is situated in a countryside lane location in the sought after village of Stoodleigh.

OUTSIDE
The pretty garden is mostly to the rear of the cottage and there is access from the lane via a lockable door in the boundary wall. The stone wall and hedging protect the garden from the lane and a path leads around the side of the cottage past a raised bed with a low stone wall full of spring flowering bulbs, perennials such as primula and hellebore and well established roses. The flower borders are well stocked and there is a sunny gravelled area by the French doors and an ornamental pond with a seat beside, which is set into a laurel hedge. An original well with hand pump makes a focal point and the lawns slope gently up to the summerhouse. It is a delightful and very private garden with mature shrubs and trees forming the boundary.
