Description

A unique opportunity to purchase a three-bedroom cottage situated on the outskirts of Wedmore with an adjoining 1.3 acre building plot with breath-taking panoramic views across open countryside to the Mendip Hills, which incorporates a partially constructed two-bedroom bungalow and detached garage.

With well-proportioned light and bright rooms, Beehive Cottage has been a much loved and well-maintained home. Decorated throughout in a neutral palette, the thoughtfully extended ground floor includes a spacious kitchen / breakfast room and three reception rooms, including a sunroom with French doors leading to the rear garden and views across the open countryside beyond. The kitchen, a bright room with rural views, is fitted with a range of base and wall units and has space for a dining table. Further to this there is also a separate utility room with fitted units, space for white goods and access to the rear garden, a downstairs shower room and an office.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, two of which benefit from views across the orchard and open countryside beyond. The family bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite with a bath and separate shower.

Outside

Beehive Cottage is approached via a driveway with space for parking, a detached garage and a footpath leading to the front door of the property. The level rear garden, enclosed by a wooden fence, is mainly laid to lawn and features a paved terrace and stunning views over the orchard and open countryside beyond.

The adjoining plot is accessed from the road via its own gateway, the driveway provides parking for several cars and includes a detached garage. The partially erected two-bedroom bungalow is set in a 1.2 acre plot with outstanding countryside views. The land, which wraps around the property, is bordered by hedgerows and features several apple trees.
