DESCRIPTION Wildanhow Lodge is situated in the village of Brushford. The property offers spacious accommodation over two floors. A great deal of thought has gone into the design to compliment the house, with the use of the finest materials including solid oak oak flooring and doors and bespoke windows with self cleaning glass and were recently replaced in 2024 and 2025. Outside is a driveway with ample parking and a beautiful garden enhanced by an attractive stone railway bridge, a unique heritage feature that once was part of the former Taunton to Barnstaple railway line, the line closed in 1966. Wildanhow Lodge was built by the current owners in 2007.
ACCOMMODATION Upon entering the property, you are greeted with a spacious entryway which leads conveniently through to the open plan kitchen / dining area and living area.
