Description

A detached cottage in an elevated position and offered with an adjoining paddock situated on the A37 trunk road Bristol to Yeovil. The property requires a programme of renovation and modernisation throughout; however, it does offer potential to be extended to create a spacious family home, (subject to necessary planning consent). The Property is not Listed.

The property is approached over a grassed driveway to the front door which leads into the sitting room with staircase rising to the first floor, open fireplace with raised hearth, wooden mantels and door leading into the kitchen / dining room. Enjoying views to the rear, the kitchen is fitted with the basics of a single drainer sink unit and an electric cooker point. There is a door into the understairs cupboard and a door to the side hall, where there is a downstairs cloakroom and a further door into the adjoining utility room / workshop / store. This room has windows and a door to the front garden.

On the first floor the landing has a double cupboard and doors to the two double bedrooms and the bathroom which is fitted with panel enclosed bath, low level wc and wash hand basin.
