An attractive four-double-bedroom cottage-style home set on an elevated plot in Membury, offered chain free. The house was finished around 15 years ago and combines stone-facing and rendered elevations with a slate roof. Accommodation is spacious and light, with a large open-plan kitchen/family room, a triple-aspect sitting room with dual-sided wood-burning stove, and countryside views from most rooms.
The ground floor layout works well for family life: entrance hall, cloakroom, and a wide reception space split into dining, kitchen and sitting areas. The first floor provides four double bedrooms, an ensuite to the principal and a family bathroom featuring a roll-top bath. Extensive double glazing and an oil-fired boiler with radiators provide warmth; mains services and Superfast broadband are available.
Outside there is private parking, a garage and an enclosed lawned garden with patio and screening laurel hedging. The cottage sits in a small courtyard setting close to the village centre with very low local crime and easy access to local schools and the Blackdown Hills AONB. Membury benefits from a strong local community and convenient links to Axminster and the Jurassic Coast.
Notable negatives: heating runs on oil (not a community supply), the private driveway is shared and requires collective upkeep, council tax is above average (Band E), and mobile/broadband coverage is described as average. Buyers seeking a low-maintenance modern utility setup should factor these points into their budget.
