Positioned amidst unspoilt Devon countryside, Charolles has a truly wonderfully peaceful setting, with only one neighbour nearby, looking out across a swathe of the lush unspoilt Exe Valley. The property is set up on a slope about 150 yards from the river itself and is about 30 ft/10m above it. It is built of local stone and is partly rendered, with a tiled roof and large, double glazed windows that capture both the view and the available natural light to give the interior a lovely feeling of light and space.
Its internal layout revolves around a fantastic, centrally positioned sitting room with a series of tall almost full height windows incorporating a pair of French windows along one side that look out across the garden to the sumptuous view beyond. At one end of the room is an open fireplace and at the other is a wide arch leading through to the adjacent dining room.
Next to it is the generously sized kitchen/breakfast room, which has sufficient room for a separate seating and dining area. It has windows on two sides that look out towards the river and the sloping side of the valley to the west and including sliding French windows that open to the terrace and garden. It also has a walk-in larder, tiled floor and is fitted with a range of timber-fronted units under melamine work surfaces and a two-oven aga. Beyond the kitchen are the laundry room, cloakroom, study and a door leading to the side porch, attached single garage and gardener's WC.
The two sides of the bungalow are connected by a wide reception hall that leads through to the property's four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom has plentiful built-in wardrobes and an ensuite bath and shower room. The remaining two double bedrooms and good-sized single bedroom share the family bathroom.
Gardens and grounds
Charolles is set back from the passing, narrow country lane and is set in about 3.96 acre of garden and grounds. It is approached via a short stretch of tarmac drive that leads to a tarmac parking area beside the bungalow with space for several vehicles and direct access to the attached single garage and adjacent side porch.
Mature garden surrounds the bungalow with countryside extending out on all sides and is designed to be easily maintained. A line of trees mixed with tall shrubs shield the property from view from the lane and the property's boundary is marked by post and rail fencing.
The garden incorporates a gently sloping lawn dotted with a mix of mature trees and is fringed by borders of varying depth, planted with a rich mix of Spring bulbs, herbaceous perennials and shrubs. Charolles offers a gorgeous field, which is bound by a mix of post and rail fencing and stock-proof fencing. In all the garden and grounds extend to about 3.96 acres (1.60 hectare).
Agents Note
The property has an agricultural tie. Planning permission has been applied for by a local neighbour to potentially build a dwelling.
Charolles is situated amidst the unspoilt countryside of the Exe Valley with only one neighbour, a working farm, on the opposite side of the lane. The village of Thorverton is a ten minute drive and has a parish church, two pubs and a village hall hosting a monthly Saturday Market for local produce. Tiverton is also close by meeting most day to day needs including a Tesco Superstore, the M5 and Exeter Airport are both within easy reach and Tiverton Parkway station offer regular train services to Paddington. The local area also offers a wide choice of schools both from the independent and state sectors.
