Situated on the edge of Henstridge within easy walking distance of the village shop and public houses, this substantial detached cottage offers approximately 1,634 sq ft of versatile accommodation, presenting an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking space, parking and scope to enhance.

The property provides three reception rooms and three bedrooms, offering flexible living arrangements well suited to family life or those working from home. A particular advantage is the double garage and off-road parking, a rare and highly desirable feature in a village setting.

During their seven years of ownership, the owners have invested in key energy efficiency improvements, including wholly owned solar panels, an air source heat pump and external insulation. A small section of internal plasterwork will require reinstatement following previous moisture ingress. The issue has now been addressed and the external insulation is in good order. The property would now benefit from general updating and cosmetic improvement overall, providing clear potential for the next owner to modernise and add value.

Offered for sale with no onward chain, this is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a well-proportioned detached cottage in a well-connected Somerset village with excellent long-term potential.

Accommodation - Inside
The ground floor offers well-balanced living space comprising a generous sitting room, separate dining room and an additional reception room ideal as a study. The kitchen is fitted in a modern wood style with stone worktops and provides space for informal dining, creating a practical hub of the home.

A separate utility area, with a downstairs WC, offers space and plumbing for a washing machine, adding further practicality.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en suite facilities, along with a separate family bathroom. The layout offers comfortable proportions throughout and clear scope for enhancement.

Outside - The garden enjoys a north-easterly orientation and is arranged in an attractive cottage style, featuring a paved patio and mature planting. An old brick wall adds character and separates the patio area from the lawn beyond.

The garden also includes two wooden summer houses and a greenhouse, offering excellent storage, hobby space or potential work-from-home options. The space is enclosed and benefits from side access to the driveway and garage.

To the front and side, there is off-road parking leading to the double garage, making the property particularly practical for families or those requiring additional storage.
