Approached via a generous private driveway with ample space to park a good number of vehicles including a caravan or camper van. Limekiln Cottage offers a perfect opportunity for buyers who are searching for the rural idyll with plenty of scope to increase the size of the property in future.
There is an entrance door to both the front and rear of the property and on the ground floor you will find two reception rooms with a pretty sitting room where there was formerly an open fireplace which could be re-installed. To the rear is a second reception which is currently utilised as a dining room and opens through into a neat galley kitchen.
On the first floor are three bedrooms and the family bathroom, two are good double rooms and the third a cot room/single bedroom which could also be a perfect work from home office. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom which is fitted with a three-piece white suite.
Outside, the garden is a absolutely delightful with a lush level lawn bounded to the rear by the beautiful remnants of the old limestone quarry face. There is so much potential to create a beautiful, landscaped garden if desired or you could simply leave it as a low maintenance area of grass.
The property has the great benefit of lapsed planning consent for a two-storey side extension which would increase both the bedroom sizes and numbers on the first floor and create a garage and space to extend the kitchen on the ground floor. Information regarding this can be found by searching on Mendip District Council Planning portal and entering the Reference No: 059313/000.

Situation
Chewton Mendip is located in the Mendip Hills - an area well known for its beautiful landscape, and unspoilt villages. The village has a good community and boasts a good range of amenities including a primary school, pre-school, village shop, café, village hall, church and public house. The local secondary school is the very popular The Blue School in Wells. The Cathedral City of Wells is six miles to the South and Bristol is 15 miles to the north, whilst the City of Bath is 14 miles to the north east. Both offer excellent shopping, leisure and educational facilities. High speed rail services to London Paddington are available from Bristol and Bath and Bristol International Airport is 20 minutes (12 miles) away.
