2 bedroom detached house for sale

A wonderful opportunity to acquire a period detached property set within a generous plot, offering significant scope for refurbishment or redevelopment (subject to the necessary planning permissions).

The house presents clear potential for developers, or those seeking a renovation project to create their perfect home, with options including modernisation, reconfiguration to enhance accommodation, or the construction of a replacement dwelling on the sizeable plot.

The property is ideally positioned with convenient access to the A303, within walking distance of a popular public house, and lies just a short drive from the sought-after towns of Bruton and Wincanton.

The existing accommodation comprises a light and spacious sitting/dining room with exposed timbers, leading through to a well-proportioned kitchen fitted with a range of wall and base units and ample work surface space. Double-glazed French doors open into a large conservatory providing direct access to the rear garden.

Further ground floor accommodation includes a WC and utility/downstairs shower room. Whilst this area is currently in a poor state of repair, plumbing is already installed, allowing for straightforward refurbishment.

Upstairs, there is a family shower room and a generously sized bedroom. The cottage was originally configured as a two-bedroom property; however, a previous owner removed a partition wall to create one large room. This could easily be reinstated, if desired, to provide an additional bedroom.

Externally, the plot is a key feature, offering substantial potential for landscaping, extension or redevelopment (STPP). Additional benefits include numerous outbuildings, a large garage/workshop, car port and a double-width driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles.

This is a superb opportunity for anyone seeking a rewarding renovation or development project, situated within a hamlet offering excellent road communications and access to popular nearby towns.
