Description

* DRAFT *


One of Wincanton's most historic and iconic properties - situated in the Market Place in central Wincanton.

This wonderfully handsome, unique, grade II listed property is one of the icons of the town - a former coaching inn and bearing a Royal Coat of Arms as Queen Victoria stayed there as a child - so with wonderful royal connections too!

Situated in the very heart of this Somerset town and just a few miles from both Bruton and Castle Cary - with its mainline station - amongst artisan bakeries, coffee shops, boutiques, and lovely independent shops - a potential new owner would be buying in to the towns growing and coveted out-and-about cafe culture.

The flexible accommodation is used by the current owners as retail shop, art gallery and studio but there would be many uses for the property (subject to the usual planning consents). Our vendor has explored the possibility of converting the property to a four-room bed and breakfast. Or perhaps retail, workshop, nursery, restaurant, dentist, doctor, candlestick maker! The list is endless! On the ground floor there are two 'units' - one commercial and one residential. These could be used or rented out with an excellent income potential. To the rear there is a utility space.

On the first floor there is a c.41' drawing room with windows to the front giving light and warmth to this fantastic space. There is an open plan kitchen area suggesting the possibility of a great entertaining space - commercially or as a great family room. There is a bedroom and bathroom on this floor too.

Upstairs again and you will find three double bedrooms, filled with light. The master bedroom has an ensuite. There is also another bathroom.

Going back to the ground floor, from the entrance hallway there is a trap door to a substantial cellar - which I am sure has many tales to tell! This also houses the gas central heating boiler.

Outside the property has one parking space and a truly delightful secret garden, detached from the property but none the less a great place to escape with a book!
