'Bracken Cottage' 4 Silver Street is a very surprising cottage! From the front is it a pretty, double-fronted, period end-of-terrace village home on a quiet no-through road - possibly the best address in the village - near the village heart, village green and pub. HOWEVER! Inside, the property offers an exciting blend of warm, period, character cottage and 'wow-factor' contemporary open-plan living. The current owners have transformed and extended the cottage in recent years. It really is quite the Tardis! Offering deceptively spacious four double bedroom accommodation extending to 1498 square feet. The property retains many lovely character features including exposed beams, Hamstone flagstone floors, window seats, internal natural stone elevations and fireplaces with two cast iron log burning stoves. The property is heated via an oil-fired radiator central heating system and also benefits from uPVC double glazing. It is enviably free from the restrictions of Grade II listing. There is a private driveway at the side offering off road parking for two to three cars leading to an attached single garage / workshop. There is a generous, landscaped, level garden at the rear measuring 43'5 depth maximum X 30'9 width maximum offering a good degree of privacy plus timber summerhouse. The spacious and flexible accommodation offers a good degree of natural light from dual aspects and a sunny southerly aspect at the front. It comprises entrance porch / boot room. entrance hall, sitting room, lounge leading in to open-plan kitchen dining room, utility room and ground floor shower room / WC. On the first floor, there is a split-level feature landing, large double master bedroom with full vaulted ceiling and exposed rafters plus walk-in wardrobe, second double bedroom with staircase rising to mezzanine study / play room area, two further double bedrooms and a first floor family bathroom. There are fantastic rural walks from nearby the front door - ideal as you do not need to put the dogs or the kids in the car! It is a very short walk to the pretty village green and village centre with popular village pub. It is also only a short walk to the mainline railway station - Yeovil Junction in Stoford - to London Waterloo. Stoford lies approximately 2 miles south of Yeovil. The village is centred on a village green with the pub located opposite. The adjoining village of Barwick which lies within the same parish has a primary school, church and recreational ground. Both Sherborne and Yeovil lie within comfortable motoring distance providing between them an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area. The property is a short drive to the stunning, historic town of Sherborne with its mainline railway link to London making Waterloo station in just over two hours directly without changing your seat! Sherborne boasts a superb boutique high street with cafes, restaurants, Waitrose store and independent shops plus the breath-taking Abbey, Almshouses and Sherborne's world-famous schools. The property is perfect for those aspiring couples or families looking for their perfect village home, buyers cashing out of the South East and London market or cash buyers looking for their perfect West Country home to settle in, potentially linked to the wonderful selection of local schools. It may also be of interest to the holiday letting or second home market. THIS COTTAGE MUST BE VIEWED INTERNALLY TO BE FULLY APPRECIATED.
