Description

THE LAURELS, 5 THE BATCH, ASHCOTT, BRIDGWATER, SOMERSET, TA7 9PG

A charming four-bedroom end-of-terrace property located in the heart of the village, retaining an abundance of period features and tastefully presented throughout. 

The accommodation includes an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen-breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom, four bedrooms, one en-suite, and a family bathroom.

The house enjoys a secluded south-facing garden and on-street parking.

Accommodation
This delightful period property is full of character and charm, offering a wealth of features including flagstone floors, exposed beams, latch and brace doors, and fireplaces. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and is immaculately presented.

The Laurels is entered via a canopied entrance porch leading into the welcoming hallway, where stained-glass windows allow borrowed light from the reception rooms. Flagstone floors continue into the sitting room, a cosy space featuring a Villager multi-fuel stove set beneath a heavy beam with a large under-stairs storage cupboard. The dining room/study enjoys exposed floorboards, shelved recesses, an open fireplace, and double doors into the kitchen.

The 'L' shaped kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with bespoke two-tone painted units, wooden worktops, and a Belfast double sink. Integrated appliances include an electric cooker, fridge, and dishwasher, while a gas-fired Aga is set into a recess. The utility room provides additional appliance space, a Belfast sink, and a useful cloakroom.

To the first floor are four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a cast iron fireplace, exposed beams, a mezzanine storage level, and an ensuite shower room. Bedrooms three and four each feature mezzanine play/sleeping areas. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed with a claw and ball foot bath, wash basin, WC, exposed floorboards, and Velux windows.

Outside
The secluded south-facing garden lies to the front of the property, enclosed by natural stone walls and laid mainly to lawn with a patio seating area and wooden pergola. There are two garden sheds, well-stocked shrub borders, and external power. A pedestrian right-of-way runs to the rear, where there is also an outside water tap.
