Located within Exmoor National Park, Owls Roost is a well presented, spacious family home situated on a generous level plot within this idyllic location and benefiting from 4/5 bedrooms, bedroom 1 enjoying en suite facilities, and with the gardens being stream bordered, the property would suit purchasers seeking a quiet, semi-rural village location.

The property is approached via double 5-bar gates with the driveway leading to an area providing ample parking for several vehicles, motor homes, caravans etc., and the gardens surround the property to the front, side and rear.

The accommodation comprises entrance porch leading to entrance hall, with stairs rising to the first floor, and a useful cloakroom/utility area housing the oil fired combination boiler providing central heating. A door from the entrance hall leads to a rear porch which in turn provides access to the garden, from where pleasant views can be enjoyed.

There is a large family kitchen/dining room, the kitchen area being well equipped with pine wall and base units with ample working surfaces over, breakfast bar area, integrated dishwasher and fridge, double drainer stainless steel sink unit, inset Calor Gas hob with stainless steel extractor canopy over and built-in electric eye-level double oven. There is a large walk-in larder with light and a further useful under stairs storage cupboard.

In the dining area is a natural stone fireplace housing an attractive wood burner and windows to both the front and rear enjoying views over the gardens.

Also on the ground floor is a delightful sitting room with floor-to-ceiling natural stone fireplace with open grate and dual aspect windows. A door gives access to a further reception room which the current vendors use as a child's playroom. These two rooms could easily accommodate a dependent relative, if required, and there is scope to extend further over the playroom, subject to the necessary planning consents.

On the first floor is the landing with hatch access to loft space. Bedroom 1 enjoys views over the garden towards open fields and countryside in the distance and benefits from an en suite shower room comprising a white three-piece suite with shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin and low-level w.c.

Bedroom 2 is a double room with an interconnecting door to an adjoining occasional bedroom/study with built-in wardrobes, one housing a wall mounted wash basin (offering scope for en suite facilities). There are two further generous bedrooms, one enjoying triple aspect windows, wall mounted wash basin and built-in wardrobes with sliding doors.

The family bathroom comprises a white three-piece suite including pedestal wash basin, low level w.c. and panelled bath with chrome mixer shower attachment in addition to a fitted shower over the bath.

Outside:
The property is approached through double 5-bar gates leading to a generous level plot totalling approximately 0.8 of an acre, which includes a stream-bordered lawn with enclosed level children's play area with mature trees and shrubs.

To the front of the property is a large plot area historically used for chickens together with a large garage/workshop area requiring improvement to return it to its original standard.

The property benefits from a newly installed treatment system, fitted within the past month, providing added peace of mind for prospective purchasers.

Owls Roost offers a good degree of privacy and seclusion and purchasers seeking an idyllic semi-rural village retreat are urged to view the property to appreciate the scope and adaptability that the accommodation offers.
