A deceptively spacious period cottage with three double bedrooms, character features and generous accommodation. Conveniently located close to the centre of Crewkerne with a courtyard garden and a separate garage. Offered for sale with no onward chain.


48 West Street comprises a generously proportioned period cottage, conveniently located close to the centre of Crewkerne, local amenities and the beautiful surrounding countryside.

The property is thought to date back to the 1800’s, having previously enjoyed a colourful life as a pub, printers and grocers shop, to name but a few, with the garage formally believed to have been a blacksmith’s/forge.

The cottage boasts well presented accommodation and wonderful character features, such as flagstone flooring, beamed ceilings, wooden doors and feature fireplaces which have been immaculately cared for by the present owners.

The ground floor accommodation comprises a large and welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and flagstone flooring which continues into the spacious, light and airy sitting room at the front of the property.

The open plan kitchen and dining room provides plenty of space for family eating/entertaining as well as space for an additional snug area in front of the impressive open inglenook fireplace. The kitchen has been finished to a high standard and comprises a good range of fitted units, integrated eye level double oven, gas hob with extractor over, an under counter fridge along with a useful island. There is also access to two useful storage cupboards/larders.

From the kitchen a door opens into the sizeable utility/boot room which is conveniently placed for access directly from the garden at the rear as well as giving access to a useful downstairs shower room. The utility room offers plenty of room for laundry, space and plumbing for white goods as well as separate larder cupboard.

On the first floor there are three large double bedrooms and a family bathroom with access from the landing to a substantial, partially boarded, loft area which offers ideal storage facilities or the potential for conversion (subject to the necessary consents).

The master bedroom is an incredibly well proportioned double room, benefitting from an abundance of natural light as well a beautiful decorative feature fireplace and lovely views over the nearby countryside in front of the property.

The second bedroom is a further large double room which has a lovely exposed stone feature wall as well as the added benefit of it’s own dressing room.

The third double bedroom is a further naturally light and spacious room which enjoys glorious views over the surrounding countryside and offers excellent flexibility as a guest bedroom/study if needed.

The family bathroom comprises a bath with shower over, wash hand basin with a vanity unit below, WC and a heated towel rail.
