Knights Lane, All Saints, Axminster

A charming detached period cottage set in just under half an acre of mature gardens at the end of a peaceful no-through lane in the sought-after village of All Saints

SITUATION
The cottage is set along a quiet country lane ending in a footpath, offering a good degree of privacy while still having neighbouring properties nearby. The village of All Saints is well regarded locally and provides a primary school, community hall, church and public house. The traditional market town of Axminster lies approximately 2 miles to the south offering independent shops, supermarkets and a mainline train to London Waterloo.

DESCRIPTION
Believed to date from the mid-18th century with later additions, the property combines period character with modern day comforts. Lime rendered elevations beneath a slate roof create an attractive and timeless exterior.

An entrance porch leads into the principal sitting room with exposed beams, window seats and a wood-burning stove. A light, double aspect dining room lies beyond. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and centered around an Everhot electric range. Also on the ground floor is a modern shower room, a useful utility room with direct access to the garden, and a music room providing flexibility as a fourth bedroom or home office.

Two staircases rise to the first floor. At one end are two double bedrooms, each with en suite facilities, while at the other is a further double bedroom and cloakroom. The property retains a wealth of character throughout.

OUTSIDE
The property stands within gardens extending to just under 0.5 acre, laid predominantly to lawn with well stocked herbaceous borders, mature shrubs and a variety of trees, including fruit trees. The gardens are enclosed by established hedge boundaries and provide a good degree of privacy.

A gravel driveway with double gates leads to a generous parking area and a useful range of outbuildings, including a barn providing garaging and storage, together with a potting shed, mower shed and greenhouse. It should be noted that the gravel driveway lies outside the curtilage of the property.
