Ham Street, Baltonsborough, Somerset, BA6

A most attractive attached stone cottage pleasantly situated within the sought-after village of Baltonsborough. The property requires modernisation, however, already benefits from an updated kitchen and wood burner, as well as a recently installed boiler. This superb three bedroom home includes two reception rooms, one parking space and a courtyard. No onward chain. EPC rating E.


Glazed double doors to the front of the cottage open into a porch, which has seating to either side and an inner door through to the sitting room. A well-proportioned reception room, the sitting room has a window to the front and a fireplace incorporating an inset wood burning stove (installed in 2018). There is shelving and a low level cupboard either side of the fireplace. The sitting room then leads into an adjoining dining room and through to a rear hall.

Also front-facing and benefiting from plenty of natural light, the dining room is open to the kitchen and can accommodate a table and chairs. If desired, this room could be utilised as a second living room.  The kitchen was updated in 2018 and fitted with a range of matching floor and wall units with attractive tiled splashbacks. There is space for a freestanding cooker plus an under-the-counter fridge and washing machine. Within the kitchen is a floor standing Worcester boiler, which was newly installed this year (2025). The rear hall includes the staircase to the first floor accommodation, an under-stairs cupboard and access to a downstairs WC. An external door from the hall opens out to the rear courtyard and parking space.

On the first floor, the landing has a large window to the rear plus an airing cupboard located at one end. There are three bedrooms, all of which are generous in size and two benefiting from built-in wardrobes. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the property is an enclosed cottage garden, laid to lawn with areas of planting and a central pathway to the front door.
The property benefits from a right of access across the neighbouring driveway (pedestrian and vehicular) to one off-road parking space under a gated carport to the rear. The parking space forms part of a walled courtyard which houses the oil tank for the central heating and an outbuilding, in need of some repair but providing useful storage.
