Market Square, Crewkerne

A unique and characterful mews-style residence, tucked away in a private and secure position within the pretty market town centre with views towards the parish church.

The Property - Stylish and low-maintenance, this Grade II listed home blends period charm with modern flair. It would make a perfect second home, Air BNB, or low maintenance pad for busy buyers wanting an impressive home with less to look after. Once the stables and ostler's quarters of a grand Georgian residence, it has been tastefully renovated to preserve original features while meeting all listed building requirements. Privately set behind a secure entrance, it boasts rear views over historic rooftops to the parish church and is just steps from town centre shops, antiques, Waitrose, and the Aquacentre Pool & Gym.

Accommodation - Having been created from the former servants quarters and outbuildings, this has been a "ground up" renovation maximising the use of space and sensitively using a mixture of natural and reclaimed materials to create a characterful and unique home. An impressive oak front door opens through into a formal entrance hall, naturally lit by the velux window on the landing above and glazed side panels each side of the door. Hardwearing bamboo flooring flows through the hall and into the stylish kitchen / breakfast room. This is fitted with a range of tasteful duck egg blue units incorporating gas hob, electric oven, fridge, freezer and dishwasher whilst blue pearl granite worktops incorporate a black composite sink unit. To one corner a window seat effectively creates banquet style seating perfect for a freestanding breakfast table. On the ground floor, a convenient shower room gives you a handy set of accessible facilities all day, and is stylishly appointed with travertine flooring incorporating underfloor heating, a walk in wet-room style shower area, concealed cistern WC and smart wall hung basin with fitted shelving and mirrored alcove. There is also a dual fuel towel radiator and a useful cupboard houses plumbing suitable for a compact washing machine.

Across the hall, a stunning living room with part vaulted ceiling is lit from above via Velux windows and overlooks the courtyard to the front. Beautiful flagstone floors are a nod to the property's past whilst reclaimed period bricks create a feature wall. A fireplace houses a woodburning stove for a cosy glow in the winter months although the property benefits from full LPG central heating and double glazing for extra efficiency.

On the first floor a useful mezzanine level can be used as a study / reading area or has accommodated occasional / futon beds to accommodate visitors in the past, with under eaves storage to one side. Across the landing a pretty double bedroom enjoys lovely views towards the church via its double aspect windows and benefits from a good size walk in wardrobe / linen cupboard on the adjacent landing.

Outside - The property is accessed via a shared security gate within the original stone archway from Market Square. The access leads under the archway to the properties at the rear, where you walk through into a partly enclosed courtyard garden offering ample room to sit out and relax or dine al fresco surrounded by natural stone walling and stylish timber privacy screening. The LPG gas cannisters are located to one side, making them accessible for replacing as and when required. For safety and convenience the property has two front doors, a more formal front entrance and a lovely stable door from the kitchen.

Situation - Crewkerne itself is a pretty and friendly market town. Its predominantly neo-Georgian and Victorian town centre streets offer a range of high street stores including a Waitrose supermarket and many independent retailers, range of local pubs, cafés, large indoor swimming pool and gym complex. The town has several schools covering all age groups. Crewkerne is well served in terms of public services with its own small hospital, GP surgeries and dentists.
