Lynhayes, Kilmington, Axminster, EX13

An enlarged, semi-detached ex local authority house situated in the popular village of Kilmington near Axminster. The accommodation has been cosmetically updated under the current ownership and is attractively presented, the replacement kitchen being of particular note. The garden lies mainly at the front which is south facing and is fully enclosed with fencing and a pedestrian gate leading to the parking bay.
Internally, there is an entrance lobby opening to the hallway with a through lounge to the right and the dining room to the left. The dining room has French doors opening to the garden and adjoins the lovely kitchen at the back. From here a rear lobby offers storage and a door to the back as well as leading to the utility room and ground floor WC.
Upstairs, on the first floor are three good sized bedrooms, the master bedroom being a through room with dormer windows to front and back and partially vaulted ceiling. There are lovely far reaching views to the front. The family bathroom is also on this level. A door to a further staircase leads to a loft conversion where there is another good sized room, either a bedroom or ideal as a hobby room or office.
Outside, at the back is a small garden area with space for a washing line, a timber store, a wood shed and a side gate leading to the front.
The house benefits from double glazed windows and oil fired central heating.
