Introduction

Marwood Cottage is a detached period property of traditional and substantial construction with many period features but benefiting from oil-fired central heating and double glazing. The well-presented accommodation consists of large living room, separate dining room, breakfast room / kitchen, study with 4 bedrooms, bathroom and shower room upstairs. The property occupies a prominent level site with fully enclosed, pretty cottage gardens, a useful range of outbuildings (including utility room) and off road parking for 4/5 cars.

The hamlet of Kingford enjoys views over the surrounding Taw Valley and is only a short walk from the well-known Northcote Manor and the Portsmouth Arms (where there is also a station on the Barnstaple-Exeter railway line). Umberleigh is only 3 miles away and has a thriving community with junior school, church, chapel, post office, village hall and the Rising Sun pub and railway station. The busy market town of South Molton and the regional centre of Barnstaple are both 11 miles away, South Molton providing local facilities and Barnstaple providing all the major facilities expected.
