Situated in the heart of Bampton, number 6 Brook Street lies within a short walk of the many amenities that this charming country village has to offer, including some delightful shops and eateries, a 15th century church, primary school and doctors surgery. The larger market town of Tiverton lies 7 miles to the south with dual carriage way access to Junction 27 of the M5 motorway and Tiverton Parkway mainline station which provides regular intercity services to London (Paddington 2 hours). The whole area is known for its outstanding natural beauty with Exmoor National Park just 3.5 miles to the north and the beaches of the beautiful North Devon coast are only a 40 minute drive.
Believed to date from the late 18th century, this Grade II listed, mid terraced house is ideally placed in the heart of the village with the benefit of a southerly facing walled garden and a large garage with off-road parking nearby. Built of local stone under a slate roof this Georgian house retains many of its charming period features.
On the ground floor there is a welcoming entrance hall with wooden flooring and an elegant, turned staircase, the sitting room has an open fireplace with carved wood surround, recessed fitted shelving, deep skirtings, and a high ceiling with dado rails. The dining room has an oil-fired rayburn, a pretty built-in dresser and storage cupboards. The kitchen is well equipped with fitted cupboards incorporating a stainless steel sink, space for cooker, fridge, freezer and washing machine. Leading off is the garden room with a door to the downstairs WC and a door to the garden. On the first floor there are three well proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom with window seat, panelled bath, basin in vanity unit, WC and heated towel rail. A door off the landing leads to a further staircase and the large attic room which could be made into an additional bedroom subject to planning.
To the rear of the house is a south-west facing walled garden which is laid to lawn with surrounding flower and shrub boarders, fruit trees and wooden garden store. A paved garden path leads to a small patio.
