Mill Street, Wincanton

A fantastic chance to purchase a distinctive Grade II Listed mid terraced period cottage, offering around 2071 sq. ft./192 sq. m. of internal space with flexible room usage arranged over multi levels and four/five double bedrooms. The property lies in a prime and highly sought after area of the town and is within walking distance to all amenities. Wincanton offers good shopping facilities from major supermarkets such as Lidl and Morrisons to many independent shops, including a butcher, bakers and jewellers. There are many choices of takeaway providers, public houses, schools catering for all ages and there is a doctors surgery. We believe that the property dates to the 18th century and retains a whole host of character features, including the original flagstone floor and gutter in the cellar, paned glass cottage windows and some sash style windows with deep sills, exposed ceiling beams and timber framework, exposed floorboards and fireplace. The property has been a very much loved and enjoyed family home to our sellers for the last five years. During this time it has been well cared for and improved with a new gas fired central heating boiler, the kitchen has been updated with new flooring and underfloor heating and the outside has benefitted from landscaping to the side - creating terraced seating and entertaining areas. This is an opportunity not to be missed - it is not often that such a special home becomes available with such excellent inside and outside space and in this desirable location.
