Property description

Whispers

A beautifully situated semi detached period cottage, with characterful accommodation including two separate reception rooms, a charming fitted kitchen, cloakroom along with three well proportioned first floor bedrooms and a smart first floor bathroom. Much careful thought and attention has gone into the improvement of the cottage so as to combine period charm, with some practical modern amenities including the installation of smart oak effect uPVC double glazed windows which combined with the central heating system should make the property warm and economical to maintain. Outside there is a lengthy driveway to the left of the cottage giving ample off road parking for at least two family vehicles, which leads into an exceptionally long rear garden which extends over 100 ft boasting a wide variety of flowering plants, shrubs and mature trees including specimen Ginkgo and Tulip trees.

The hamlet of Langley Marsh has a well respected village pub and ease of access back to Wiveliscombe where a wide variety of shopping, leisure and scholastic amenities can be found.
