Description

This charming Grade II Listed period cottage offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautifully updated home that seamlessly combines character features with stylish modern improvements. Ideally situated within easy reach of Chard town centre, the property has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment, including a new kitchen, contemporary shower room, replacement central heating system, updated electrics, new flooring throughout and tasteful redecoration, creating a home that is ready to move straight into.

The accommodation is deceptively spacious and begins with an entrance hall leading into a delightful open-plan lounge and dining room, naturally divided by the staircase. The cosy lounge is centred around an attractive brick-built fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere, while the dining area offers generous space for entertaining and features a second fireplace, built-in storage and an exposed original external door (now redundant), adding further character and charm.

Flowing from the dining area is the beautifully appointed kitchen, fitted with a range of modern shaker-style units complemented by wooden worktops and a ceramic sink. A range of integrated appliances provide convenience, while a useful walk-in pantry offers excellent additional storage also housing the boiler. A traditional stable door opens directly onto the rear courtyard garden, further enhancing the cottage's appeal.

On the first floor, the spacious main bedroom enjoys a pleasant front aspect and is complemented by an attractive antique-style fireplace, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and provides an ideal guest room or home office. The accommodation is completed by a stylishly refurbished shower room, fitted with a contemporary three-piece suite.

Externally, the property benefits from a generously sized, south-facing courtyard garden, offering a wonderful space for outdoor dining, relaxation and entertaining. A raised decked seating area providing ample space for dining/entertaining leading onto a paved courtyard, with access to a timber summerhouse and adjoining storage shed positioned at the rear of the garden. Fitted with light and power, providing excellent versatility for hobbies, storage or home working.

Rich in period charm and a wealth of character throughout, yet thoughtfully enhanced with high-quality modern updates, this delightful cottage offers the perfect blend of historic appeal and contemporary comfort. Early internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the deceptive space and excellent presentation on offer.
