Description

Nestled at the foot of the picturesque Blackdown Hills, this charming three-bedroom Stone cottage enjoys far-reaching views across open fields and rolling countryside, offering an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a rural lifestyle with excellent connectivity. Positioned directly on the A303, the property benefits from superb transport links to the M5 motorway and an array of coastal destinations, all within easy reach.

Set within mature and beautifully established grounds, the property includes extensive gardens, a small paddock and a variety of useful outbuildings, ideal for those looking to create a smallholding or pursue a more self-sufficient way of life. A large pond enhances the peaceful setting, while a workshop/garage and an additional workshop/store backing onto open countryside provide excellent practical space for hobbies, storage or livestock-related use.

The principal residence is an attractive traditional stone cottage full of character and warmth believed to date back to the 1700's. Inside, the accommodation is both spacious and versatile, with two generous reception rooms, each centred around a fireplace with multi-fuel burner, creating inviting living spaces throughout the seasons. A separate dining room leads through to the fitted kitchen, with a doorway continuing into a useful side porch.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both benefitting from built-in wardrobes and delightful front-facing views across the surrounding countryside. A third single bedroom also enjoys extensive rural views, while a shower room completes the first-floor accommodation.

Situated a short distance from the main house, the detached one-bedroom annexe offers excellent ancillary accommodation and flexibility. The annexe comprises a spacious open-plan living and kitchen area, a double bedroom and a shower room, making it ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodation, holiday letting potential or independent living arrangements.

Altogether, this is a rare and versatile rural property combining character, land, outbuildings and adaptable accommodation in an accessible countryside setting.
