4 bedroom house

Charming modern stone thatched property in this sought after coastal village.


Description

Orchard House has attractive stone elevations under a thatched roof and was constructed in 2004 and provides spacious well appointed accommodation arranged over two floors.

The house is situated in an attractive mature plot extending to just under one acre with nice views over open farmland and situated at the top of a track unsuitable for passing traffic which provides easy access to the sea and Jurassic coastal walks.

Internally the house is in extremely good order and of particular note is the large double height space in the entrance hall with galleried landing, around which the main reception rooms are situated. Also on the ground floor is a spacious drawing room with adjacent garden room overlooking open countryside, well appointed kitchen, dining room and a study.

Outside
The attractive gardens at Orchard House extend to approximately one acre and are accessed from the lane via a private drive which leads to a gravelled area of parking and a double garage. Orchard House was built as a replacement dwelling, the previous property having been demolished and therefore whilst being just ten years old, the gardens themselves are attractively landscaped with an excellent range of mature trees, shrubs and plants. The situation backing onto open farmland allows for distant views from the house and garden. Included in the sale is the Showman's Wagon in the garden.
