Ideally positioned, the property offers convenient access to the A303, is within walking distance of a popular public house, and lies just a short drive from the sought-after towns of Bruton and Wincanton.
A stable door opens into the generous sitting/dining room, featuring oak flooring and painted ceiling beams. The impressive inglenook fireplace, complete with an inset wood-burning stove and bressumer beam, forms a striking focal point and creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. Along the rear wall, there is discreet built-in storage comprising three concealed cupboards interspersed with illuminated display alcoves. The dining area comfortably accommodates a large table, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Additional features include useful understairs storage, an electric heater, double-glazed window to the front aspect, and a door leading through to the kitchen.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully refitted in recent years with a range of stylish wall, base and drawer units complemented by generous work surfaces. There is space for an electric oven, tall fridge/freezer, and plumbing for a washing machine. Further features include a single drainer sink with chrome mixer tap, integrated slimline dishwasher, metro style tiled splashbacks, extractor fan, exposed beams, vinyl plank flooring, and a deep tiled windowsill beneath a double-glazed front facing window.
Upstairs, the landing provides access to an airing cupboard housing the hot water tank, and a hatch leading to the loft space. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and full of character, featuring heavy exposed beams and a Velux window and electric panel radiator. The second bedroom is a generous double, also with exposed beams, an electric panel heater and Velux window, while the third bedroom is a large single with exposed beams. All first floor doors are traditional latch-and-brace style. The well appointed bath/shower room is of a good size and comprises a large low profile shower cubicle, bath with chrome mixer tap, WC and wash hand basin unit, exposed beam, and vinyl flooring.
Outside, the property benefits from a paved seating area to the front, ideal for enjoying morning coffee or relaxing with a glass of wine on summer evenings. There is parking for one large vehicle or two smaller cars, with potential to create additional space by reducing the seating area if required.
In summary, this charming home is ideally suited to those wishing to downsize, seeking a second home, or simply looking for a character cottage in a lovely setting, with excellent road links and easy access to the surrounding countryside and nearby town amenities.
