Description

Property Description: Guide Price £500,000 - £550,000. This fabulous, Grade II listed Georgian home is ideally situated in the heart of Somerton centrally located just steps away from the thriving market town. Originally built in 1742 as a solicitors office, this really is a fabulous opportunity to acquire a piece of history in this desirable market town. The house does require some refurbishment, making this a fabulous project for the new owner.

The house is approached from Broad Street through a side gate and you enter a beautifully planted and private courtyard garden. As you turn and step up inside this elegant home, you are instantly aware of the character period features. The original Georgian wood panelling, high ceilings, coving and fireplaces throughout the main rooms all add a touch of grandeur to this fantastic property.

This property has huge versatility with scope for reconfiguration or simply to be refurbished as it is in its current layout.

The kitchen/breakfast room, with its original flagstone flooring and large sash windows, is located on the lower ground floor, complete with a Rayburn and a separate pantry. An atmospheric dining room, nestled in the cellar, adds a unique touch. On the raised ground floor there are two beautifully appointed receptions rooms. The drawing room has original Georgian cupboards cleverly designed like panelling, making this a really special room. The two large sash windows still have their original wooden shutters and overlook the gorgeously planted courtyard garden. The sitting room is at the front of the house and would have originally been the entrance hall and waiting room for the solicitors. It has three large sash windows and a gas fire.

There are two double bedrooms on the first floor, both with excellent cupboard storage and one with an en-suite bathroom. The second floor is home to the two attic rooms - these rooms have slightly restricted head height but are perfect for when the family come to stay. There is also additional storage and a shower room to this top floor.

The conservatory, with its natural light, brings the outside in and opens out to a secluded second courtyard. Imagine enjoying your morning coffee in this peaceful spot. This area coupled with the study, laundry room and cloakroom could be (subject to planning permission) be altered to create a fabulous open plan kitchen/breakfast/living room opening out to the courtyard or alternatively you could create a separate Airbnb/annexe should you wish to make these changes.

As mentioned, the property requires some works to restore it back to its full glory. These works have been reflected in the current pricing and include certain works to the lower part of the roof.

Outside: The gravelled courtyard garden is thoughtfully planted within flower beds as well as numerous planters creating an interesting and colourful space. Perfect for relaxing, away from high street, while being only a short walk to these facilities. This private outdoor space is an excellent feature to be enjoyed.

There are double gates into the garden from Broad Street that in turn lead to the garage. Parking is available in front of and behind the double gates, always ensuring you can easily park.

Location: The historic Anglo-Saxon market town of Somerton is said to be the ancient capital of Wessex. This thriving market town offers an excellent selection of day-to-day shopping, antiques, popular pubs, a butchers, chemist, artisan bakery, wine shop, restaurants and a 14th century church. A more comprehensive range of amenities can be found in the local towns of Street, Taunton or Yeovil, which are within easy reach by car and bus.
For families, there is a recreational ground, which includes rugby, football, lawn bowls, tennis, children’s play area, skate park, outdoor gym and a sports and social club.

There is a good selection of both private and state schools in the locality which include a well respected primary school in Somerton and secondary schools at Street and Huish Episcopi. Strode College in Street offers 6th Form and there are numerous private schools in the area including Millfield and Wells Cathedral School.

The mainline railway stations are located in Castle Cary, Yeovil and Taunton. The A303 is approximately 4.5 miles and links London with the South West. The M5 motorway can be joined at junction 23 which is approximately 19 miles.
