The Larches provides a fine opportunity to acquire an individual home believed to date from the early 1900s built of a brick construction under a tiled roof. There are two principal reception rooms both of which enjoy an outlook over the established gardens complemented by a wood burning stove. To the rear is a more recent extension providing a farmhouse style kitchen/diner with a gas fired Rayburn and walk-in pantry cupboard. Also on the ground floor is a useful utility room, with door opening out onto the garden and seating area, and separate shower room with toilet.
A particular feature is the established grounds which back onto open countryside providing considerable privacy with various hidden sections. Within the grounds is a substantial detached double garage built principally of a stone construction with an inspection pit. Other benefits include a summer house and greenhouse.
Situation
The property sits almost centrally within its own plot with the majority of its gardens to both sides backing onto open countryside.
The Larches is located on the edge of the popular South Somerset village of Forton about 1 mile from the centre of Chard and the town of Axminster is situated only 6 miles away. Chard is a small town having a good range of supermarkets, smaller shops, banks and schools. The town of Axminster provides a good range of day to day amenities including shops, schools and cafes together with a mainline railway station on the London Waterloo route. The heritage coast with resorts such as Lyme Regis and Seaton is some 12 miles distant and the regional centre of Exeter being 30 miles to the West, with connections to the M5 motorway and regional airport.
Outside
The property is approached via a gravel driveway via timber gates providing ample parking leading to:
Detached Double Garage
Principally of a stone construction, up and over doors, side personal door, tiled roof and inspection pit
Gardens
The majority of gardens lie to the side of the property incorporating lawns and paved sections offering an abundance of mature plants and shrubs alongside mature hedging. There is a pathway that leads to a further hidden area providing a number of mature trees previously known by the vendor as "the orchard".
