About this listing

A striking detached period property enjoying complete privacy and seclusion with views towards the Blackdown Hills together with a two-bedroom annex, outbuildings and paddock in all about 3.89 acres. This attractive period property is believed to date back to the 1950’s and is of rendered brick elevations under a pitched tiled roof and enjoys oil fired central heating and double glazing throughout. Whilst the property has been well maintained it would now benefit from some updating and in brief the accommodation comprises an entrance porch, hallway with original parquet flooring and stairs rising to the first floor. Adjoining are three reception rooms, and the parquet flooring continues through to the sitting room with bay window and open fireplace. The dining room enjoys a dual aspect, and French doors lead to outside. The main living room is situated at the end of the house and enjoys a dual aspect with attractive Minster fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of modern base units with tiled splashbacks and a door off leads to a W/C and pantry. Upstairs are five bedrooms, a family bathroom, separate W/C and separate shower room. Lying adjacent to the house is a detached single storey annex which is currently let but will be vacant upon completion. The property is situated on the southern outskirts of the village of West Buckland, some 3 miles from the town of Wellington where a good range of facilities include both primary and secondary schooling, including Wellington sports centre. Taunton, the County Town, is some 4 miles to the east where representation by most National retailers will be found together with a mainline rail link to London Paddington, three further independent schools, sixth form college and major hospital. The M5 may be joined at Junction 26 about 1 mile from the property. West Buckland lies at the foot of the Blackdown Hills which are designed as a national landscape and where many fine footpaths are available. The property is set at the end of a long private driveway which is shared with just one other property owner. A tarmacadam drive provides parking for two vehicles flagged on either side by lawned gardens which wrap around to the front. The primary gardens lie to the front and are predominantly lawned, interspersed with several mature trees, shrubs and bushes and enjoy far reaching views towards the Blackdown Hills. To the side a hedge divides a small vegetable garden and further afield is a paddock containing two general purpose barns 13.7m x 6.9m and 10.8m x 6.52m with a lean-to off 3.8m x 10.8m. In addition is a timber stable and water is currently connected. The land is predominantly level, enclosed within natural hedgerow boundaries perfect for those with livestock, equestrian or conservation interests at heart. In all the property extends to 3.89 acres.
