Cross, Axbridge, BS26

Inside, the main living space centres around a large kitchen and dining room. Somewhere that naturally becomes the heart of the house. There’s also a separate reception room with a log burner, giving you a warmer, quieter space to settle into, alongside a snug that could work as a TV room, home office, reading room or somewhere for the children to take over.

There are four bedrooms and three bathrooms in total, including an ensuite to the master bedroom, with underfloor heating in the family bathroom. Three bedrooms are in the main house with one currently being used as an office and another bedroom is fitted in the outbuilding. A WC is also fitted in the outbuilding for added convenience.

The garden is a big part of the appeal. It’s large and private, with ponds, a generous decking area and plenty of room to make the most of the outdoors. It feels like somewhere you can properly switch off. Whether that’s sitting out with a coffee, letting the children play or having friends round on a summer evening.
Then there’s the outbuilding. At around 300 sq ft, it has its own living space and bar, giving you something that feels much more useful than a standard garden room. It could become a work-from-home space, somewhere for teenagers, a games room, a hobby space or simply a place to gather when you have people over.

The main house is around 1,400 sq ft, with a further 300 sq ft in the outbuilding, giving you roughly 1,700 sq ft of space overall. There are also multiple parking spaces, which makes everyday life that bit easier. Access to local paths like the Strawberry Line can take you to further into Axbridge, past Axbridge and into Cheddar or if you are walking the opposite direction it then leads into Winscombe and Sandford. All surrounding villages provide great amenities.

Set just inside Axbridge, this is a home that gives you a good balance between having your own space and being part of a proper Somerset town. Axbridge has a character all of its own, with its historic buildings, medieval Square and the Mendip countryside rising just beyond it. Cheddar and the wider Mendips are close by, so there’s plenty of opportunity to get out into the countryside without having to plan a day around it.
