Description

SITUATION
The property occupies a delightful rural position at Madford, a small hamlet of cottages and farms, lying in the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, overlooking the historic Dunkeswell Abbey. Enjoying an elevated position, the property has fine country views and is widely regarded as being some of the most attractive countryside in the county. The village of Hemyock lies approximately 2 miles to the north and provides a thriving local community with its primary school, parish church, village stores, doctor's surgery and public house, whilst the larger centres of Wellington and Honiton both offer a good range of everyday shopping, banking and scholastic services, including primary and secondary schooling as well as the renowned Wellington School. Taunton lies within 12.5 miles of the property affording an extensive range of commercial, educational and recreational facilities befitting those of an important regional and administrative centre, together with a wide range of primary, secondary and further education facilities, including three noted public schools. Despite its rural position the property enjoys easy access to the surrounding districts and further afield with access to the M5 motorway available at Wellington (J26)
