Attractively presented with stone and rendered elevations set beneath a slate roof, the property offers well proportioned accommodation that would now benefit from a little updating throughout. Listed Grade II, the accommodation boasts a wealth of character, including excellent ceiling height with secondary glazed sash windows to the front elevation, period fireplaces and grates, stripped floorboards and an elegant staircase to the first floor. Briefly this comprises a main hallway with stairs rising, sitting room, library, generous kitchen with utility area, cloakroom and garden room to the rear. At first floor level are two excellent double bedrooms, a smaller double and a family bathroom. Oil fired central heating is installed and there is an oil fired Rayburn in the kitchen (currently not connected). To the front of the house is a partly walled garden with lawn and shrubs together with off road parking for two vehicles. At the rear of the property steps lead up to a small elevated area of garden with views over the surrounding countryside.

The property occupies a central position in the small village of Yarcombe at the Southern extremity of the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Devon/Somerset border. The village enjoys a close knit and thriving community with small hotel, active village hall and a church, whilst the nearby villages of Bishopswood and Stockland both have excellent pubs. Chard and Honiton are some 5 and 8 miles distant respectively with a good range of day to day amenities and the larger centre of Taunton is some 13 miles to the North with excellent commercial, educational and recreational facilities. The A303 and M5 are readily accessible and there are inter city rail links at Taunton (London Paddington) and Honiton (London Waterloo). The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is about 18 miles to the South at Lyme Regis.
