Property description

Having been in the family for a long time, this cottage now requires modernisation but has lots of potential to create a nice size family home, and has the added advantage of a detached stone outbuilding to one side. The outbuilding has plenty of potential too and could make a lovely granny annexe or home office subject to the necessary consents. The property has oil fired central heating via a Rayburn Range cooker. Currently there is ample parking, and the total plot including the current house extends to approximately 28m x 24m (0.16 acres). The property has a nice aspect to the rear over fields, with enclosed gardens laid to both lawn and substantial patio. The property is offered for sale with no onward chain. Situated in a sought after village with its own primary school, pub, playing field, and village hall, it also benefits from excellent road links via the A303 and easy access to both Yeovil and Martock for a wider range of facilities.
