This picture postcard thatched cottage is quietly tucked away down a small country lane in the beautiful hamlet of Nimmer, within one mile from the centre of Chard.

The historic three-bedroom property is surrounded by unspoilt countryside making it quite the rural idyll, yet it is still close to the amenities.

The property is beautifully presented and has been superbly enhanced and upgraded in recent years to perfectly blend contemporary living with the cottage’s quintessential charm and character.

Inside, the sitting room is noticeably light and benefits from a wealth of period features such as exposed ceiling beams, an inglenook fireplace, an exposed stone wall and lovely oak flooring. The country cottage kitchen is bespoke and features a modern Aga, tiled flooring, beautiful, exposed brickwork and even a window seat overlooking the pretty gardens. The ground floor is completed with a pleasant dining room and a sumptuous family bathroom with a roll-top bath.

On the first floor, there are three generously proportioned bedrooms with lovely character features. The principal bedroom benefits from having an ensuite shower room.

Outside, the stunning country cottage gardens are comprised of three defined areas. The first area is a formal garden at the front of the property, which features manicured lawns and a private patio terrace. The second outdoor space showcases a 'secret' garden situated on the opposite side of the road. This private garden includes a summer house, a lawn, and a variety of mature trees, creating a romantic and enchanting setting. The third outdoor area is a large space with off-road parking that leads to the double carport and a detached garage. The garage could be used as a workshop, store, gym, or, subject to the necessary consents, converted into ancillary accommodation for the main residence.
