Full Property Details
Jessamine Cottage is situated in a beautifully peaceful, semi-rural location on the edge of the popular country village of Stoodleigh. The village has a thriving community with a village pub, a lovely old church, village hall and social club, and is situated above the beautiful Exe Valley about 5.5 miles to the north of the market town of Tiverton and 5 miles from the popular village of Bampton. Both centres provide an excellent selection of local amenities with Tiverton offering a wide range of amenities, shopping and supermarkets including an M&S Food Hall. There are many highly regarded primary schools in the area, (there is a school bus from the village) as well as the renowned Blundell's School in Tiverton. The area offers superb walking, riding and cycling routes with the beautiful Exmoor National Park to the north and the rugged North Devon coastline to the northwest.
Communications are excellent with good access to the M5 motorway via the A361 North Devon link road, with Exeter to the south and Bristol to the north, and Tiverton Parkway railway station provides regular services to London Paddington in approx. 2 hours.
This delightful, semi-detached character cottage has been recently renovated by the current owners to provide an exceptionally well presented family home with stunning views over the beautiful landscaped garden and surrounding rolling countryside.
The ground floor comprises an entrance porch, spacious double aspect sitting room with the original fireplace and woodburning stove, dining room which leads through to the beautifully fitted kitchen with a Belfast sink and integral appliances including a dishwasher, double oven, halogen hob and there is space for a large fridge/freezer. Leading off the dining area, there is a useful room currently used as a child's nursery, as well as a downstairs WC.
From the kitchen, an arch leads to an entrance hallway, providing access to the garden and driveway and to the guest suite, comprising a sitting room/office, a double aspect bedroom and a bathroom with freestanding bath and a utility cupboard which houses the washing machine and drier. This versatile area is perfectly suited for a self contained annex if desired. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, the main bedroom with built-in wardrobes, as well as a family shower room.
The gardens are a particularly lovely aspect of the property, beautifully landscaped with a deep paved patio to the rear providing the perfect spot for al fresco dining in the warmer months. Steps lead down to the garden with areas of lawn interspersed with well stocked flower and herbaceous beds and borders as well as two ponds, a stone storage shed and a greenhouse. At the bottom of the garden there is an area of woodland.
The property is set well back from the lane, with a further area of landscaped garden to the front, and the driveway gives access to the generous gravelled parking area.
The property as a whole is approximately 0.32 acres.
