Description

Set behind electric gates and sitting in almost three-quarters of an acre, Gardeners Cottage in Lydford-on-Fosse is a rare blend of space, style, and Somerset countryside charm. This versatile home offers four double bedrooms, three distinct garden spaces, 1 being a paddock, and a double garage with loft storage, all wrapped in privacy and scenic views.

Step Inside
A generous entrance hall/boot room welcomes you in. To one side, a flexible room currently used as a bedroom could easily be a home office, studio, or games room. Across the hall, a well-proportioned study adds even more versatility.

The main sitting room is a light, inviting space with dual-aspect windows and French doors leading out to the garden, ideal for summer BBQs or cosy winter evenings.

At the heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen and dining area, complete with oak worktops, mid-level oven, induction hob, and panoramic views across the gardens and fields beyond. A utility room with garden access and a family bathroom with underfloor heating complete the ground floor.

Upstairs
Three character-filled double bedrooms provide comfort and charm. The master suite enjoys countryside views, a dressing area, and an en-suite. One of the smaller rooms has existing plumbing, offering scope to add a second upstairs bathroom if desired.

The Grounds
Three distinct garden spaces give you options for every mood:
A main garden with lawn, planting, and outdoor seating.
A second garden with mature hedging, rockeries, and a rose arch.
A paddock, perfect for a smallholding, pony, or further development (subject to permissions).
The property also boasts a gravelled parking area, a wishing well, and a substantial double garage with loft space, ideal for storage or conversion.
Gardeners Cottage isn’t just a house, it’s a lifestyle move, offering space to grow, entertain, and enjoy Somerset living at its best.
