This charming Grade II listed residence occupies an elevated position on a 0.21-acre plot in Crewkerne and is within a short walking distance of the town centre and its range of amenities.
The characterful property has its origins dating back to the Georgian era and displays many period features including an attractive double-fronted design of Hamstone, original sash windows and ornate fireplaces.
Inside, the property is presented in excellent decorative order where the period features blend well with fine modern touches. The spacious sitting room has a focal fireplace and lovely sash windows flanked by shutters, while the dining room/family room has an original marble fireplace with slim fluted half-columns with lion paws carved on the bases. Also on the ground floor is a handy study/breakfast area and a large garden room with a central lantern sky window that bathes the space with natural light. The kitchen/breakfast room has a traditional country look and features an original huge bread oven.
On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, a well-appointed family bathroom and a separate shower room.
A further impressive bedroom with original A-frame exposed timbers can be found on the second floor, along with a useful study/office/playroom and a large loft storage area.
Outside, in the rear garden there is a detached former coach house that could be used as a studio/work-from-home annexe or ancillary residential accommodation to the main house. Inside, the annexe has a sitting room/bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, a separate kitchen and a wet room.
The large gardens have been landscaped with a lawn, a range of mature shrubs, beautiful trees, a gravelled terrace area and paved and cobbled pathways. The storage shed and summerhouse are useful additions to the enclosed garden.
The garage provides off-road parking space for at least two cars.
