5 bedroom detached house for sale

Substantial detached period property offering 5 bedrooms and 4 reception rooms with the potential to create annex space (stp) and set within just under half an acre of garden in an idyllic semi rural location at the foot of the Quantocks.

Benefitting from double glazing and oil fired central heating, the accommodation comprises, on the ground floor - porch, entrance hall, kitchen, dining room, sitting room with wood burner, 2 further reception rooms, utility/WC, pantry and a shower room (up some stairs). The first floor offers 5 double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The house has several entrances and therefore lends itself to being split to create an annex (subject to planning).

Externally the garden lies to the side and rear of the house and is laid mainly to lawn with patios, areas of decking, mature trees, shrubs and fruit trees, old piggery and an area of woodland to the rear. The garage is the end of a block of 4 and has light and power.

The whole garden is thought to extend to 0.44 acres.

The area is renowned for its walks and countryside pursuits with the famous Coleridge Way accessible not far from the cottage.
