A wonderful opportunity to purchase a delightful Grade II Listed converted coach house set in a quiet tucked away position in the heart of Queen Camel. The generous living accommodation is mainly arranged on the first floor and enjoys good proportioned rooms with a number of character features. A solid wood front door opens to the entrance hall with doors to a cloakroom and utility/boot room which gives access to a delightful walled garden. From the hallway stairs rise to a long landing with window to the front aspect. The sitting/dining room is a particular feature being of a generous size with plenty of light provided by the large sash windows. A huge master bedroom benefits from an excellent range of fitted wardrobes, vanity unit and an opening leads through to the en-suite shower room. There are three bedrooms one with a feature stone mullion window with wonderful views. The kitchen is fitted with an excellent array of units and an electric Rangemaster Cooker. The family bathroom also benefits from a separate shower cubicle. The owner has created a lovely tranquil garden full of colour and interest perfect for relaxing and entertaining. There is also a large integral garage, workshop and wood store providing the opportunity to create additional living accommodation subject to necessary permissions. We strongly recommend an internal viewing to fully appreciate this individual character home which enjoys a lovely ambience and excellent location within the village.
