Water Street, Martock

A charming 2 bedroom, 2 reception room character cottage lying on the outskirts of this popular Somerset town. The property, which has many character features, benefits from a lovely mature garden and early viewing is very much advised. No onward chain.

The Property - A delightful cottage offering character features including timber doors, Blue Lias flagstone flooring in the hallway and dining room, new sash windows, window seats, and wooden panelling to dado height. The property is surprisingly spacious and arranged in more detail as follows.

An entrance door leads to a hall with a staircase rising to the first floor. The sitting room overlooks the front of the house with a multi-fuel burner whilst the dining room overlooks the rear, also having a multi-fuel burner with a brick surround, chimney breast and hearth.

The kitchen has a range of units with timber effect worktops, with a number of base units, wall cupboards and a door to the rear.

On the first floor is a landing with space for a reading area and a hatch to the roof space, which is partially boarded. There are 2 good size bedrooms and a luxury bath/shower room with a freestanding bath with hand held shower and a corner shower cubicle.

Outside - At the front is a small garden area with space for bins, etc.

The rear garden is a real feature, with abundant plants, shrubs, and mature trees, including fig, Olive, Hazel, and Cherry. It also has a wildlife pond, lawns, pathways, and a semi-detached store, with the gardens enclosed by stone walling and lap panel fencing.

There is a really useful external utility room with a WC, gas boiler and plumbing for an automatic washing machine.

Situation - Martock is a pretty, thriving town with many attractive, honey-coloured Hamstone houses and cottages centred around the magnificent parish church. The village has an excellent range of facilities including a doctor’s surgery, post office, hotel & pub, dentist, supermarket, newsagent, bakers and library, amongst other amenities.

The larger and commercial centres of Yeovil and Taunton are easily accessible by road, and the quaint historic Abbey town of Sherborne, with its castle ruins, is within easy reach.

The main A303, a major route linking London with the West Country, is just a couple of miles away, and there are mainline railway stations at Yeovil (London Waterloo about 2½hours), Crewkerne and Castle Cary (London Paddington about 95 minutes).

The surrounding countryside is rich in recreational activities and walks. Nearby is Sutton Bingham Reservoir, which hosts a range of water sports. The Jurassic coastline (Lyme Regis) lies approximately 35 minutes (23 miles) driving distance away, providing further recreational activities.
