Walk Through
With a 13th century church just behind you, a playground across the road, and the village pub just around the corner this property is perfectly located in the center of picturesque Payhembury. Stepping off the lane, the front door opens into an entrance hallway that opens to the left into the sitting room, and straight ahead leads to the kitchen. The living room has laminate floors, an open fire and triple windows looking out over the lane. It has plenty of space for a three-seater sofa and armchair around the open fire. A open-plan doorway to the rear of the living room opens directly onto the dining room. The dining room has space for a six-seat dining table and a dresser, and the newly installed (2021) French doors provide direct access to the garden and allow in plenty of natural light. A door to the right of the dining room leads into the kitchen.
The kitchen also benefits from great natural light with triple windows overlooking the garden. It has a double oven with electric hob, fitted dishwasher, fridge and has space and plumbing for a washing machine beside the sink. There is plenty of storage and worksurface space with high and low units. A side door opens from the kitchen to the side of the property. Taking the hall back to the foot of the stairs by the front door passes a downstairs WC to the left. To the right, is an alcove, which can be used for storage or to house a small office desk as well as an under-stair cupboard providing additional storage.
Upstairs a landing connects four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom has an en suite with shower, sink and WC. It has pleasant rural views over the lane to the church and playground.

At the end of the lawn a gate leads through a low fence into a levelled area with a greenhouse and vegetable patches. Beyond this is an additional plot of land they purchased just after purchasing this property making quite a substantial garden. Side access from the garden leads to the front of the property where an integrated garage offers parking for one vehicle, with space for an additional vehicle on the drive.

Situation
This property is located at the heart of the thriving rural village of Payhembury, opposite the village green, adjacent to the 12th century village church and less than a 150m from the village stores. Payhembury is well served for amenities with its own community-run shop and post office, pub, garage and well-respected school. It is in the outstanding-rated The King’s secondary school catchment. As a village it is very much alive with a community that organises many local events (including village cricket!).

Train stations at Feniton (3 miles) and Tiverton Parkway (12.5 miles) provide access to two separate train lines, providing direct connections to Exeter, London, the Midlands and the North of England. Exeter Airport is also within easy reach (12 miles). Nearby towns of Cullompton and Honiton provide supermarkets, coffee shops, restaurants and leisure facilities. For more options and variety, the cathedral city of Exeter is only 16 miles away and the beautiful SW coast is only a 14 mile drive.
