3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Hawkchurch, Axminster EX13

A well proportioned three bedroom semi detached house now in need of some general improvement occupying good size grounds providing ample parking and rural views.

The Property

Marabe comprises a three bedroom semi-detached house which has been in the same family ownership for nearly 60 years, built with rendered elevations under a slate roof. Although it enjoys an oil fired central heating system and partial double glazing some general improvement and updating may now be appropriate. There are two principal reception rooms, one of which enjoys an inglenook-style fireplace alongside a UPVC double glazed conservatory with the further potential of enlargement subject to any necessary consents. On the first floor are three double bedrooms, all of which enjoy rural views over open countryside.

A particular feature is the site and situ occupying a level site providing ample parking and various outbuildings all of which adjoin countryside.

A main line station providing access to London Waterloo and the home of River Cottage HQ situated in the nearby Trinity Hill area.
