Vine Cottage is an individual detached home built in 1977 and further extended in the 2000’s, privately positioned within a quiet village setting with elevated countryside views. The property sits well within its own generous plot and as such benefits from secure gardens, parking and much scope to further extend, subject to necessary consents. In recent years the property has undergone an extensive program of refurbishment works to both the core services of the house and contemporary styling throughout. The vendor has also reconfigured the footprint of the home to not only allow for a wonderful free flowing living space, but also a most useful utility area. Internal accommodation is bright and spacious centred around a welcoming entrance hall with an immediate wow factor and access to cloakroom/wc. There is a dual aspect sitting room with outlook over the garden. Returning to the hallway, the flow of accommodation leads to the contemporary dining/family area and fitted kitchen. The family living area is centred around a impressive dual sided fireplace with wood burner inset, alongside a pair of French doors which flow out on to the partly walled rear garden and sun terrace. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern, stylish, soft closing kitchen units in a gloss finish consisting of floor cupboards, two tall larder style cupboards, separate drawer unit with cutlery and deep pan drawers plus eye level cupboards. Generous amount of quartz work surfaces with matching upstand and double inset steel sink with mixer tap. Integrated dishwasher. Housing for an American style fridge/freezer. Built in dual side by side electric oven and five ring induction with quartz splash back and extractor hood over. An inner hall leads to the utility, fitted with soft closing, modern units in a gloss finish consisting of broom cupboard and floor cupboards. Quartz work surface with matching upstand and inset steel sink with mixer tap. Tiled floor. Walk in cupboard housing the oil fired central heating boiler. Upstairs the property offers a total of five substantial bedrooms, all having lovely views over the surrounding gardens and countryside.

Vine Cottage lies on a quiet village lane away from passing traffic to the centre of the village of North Cheriton which itself is made up of a number of attractive period properties and lies in some outstanding rolling countryside. Local shopping can be had at Charlton Horethorne, Templecombe and Wincanton while both Sherborne and Yeovil lie within comfortable motoring distance providing between them an excellent range of educational, cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area with many walks to be had from the village itself while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with a main line station at Templecombe linking directly with London Waterloo while road links are along the A303 joined at Wincanton giving swift access to London and Home Counties along the M3, M25 route.

A large gated driveway suitable for multiple vehicles with ample turning space leads to the garage and well maintained gardens surrounded by stone walling filled with character. There are two main areas of garden. To the rear of the property is a wonderful stone tiled sun terrace, offering excellent privacy with raised beds and bordered by an attractive stone wall. To the side of the property is a generous area of lawned garden, surrounded by matured floral beds and mature trees. A small stone outbuilding provides additional garden storage or use as a log store.
