House For Sale £245,000
A gorgeous cottage, immaculately presented, with lots of character, located in East Horrington, just outside the Cathedral City of Wells. The property has a good sized garden with countryside views and off road parking. An ideal first time buy or investment opportunity, especially for those who might be looking for a holiday let.
Description
Situated just a couple of miles from the Cathedral City of Wells, this delightful period cottage offers character and charm in abundance. The property is immaculately presented throughout, with every room having been tastefully decorated.
On the ground floor, the Sitting Room, measuring 12ft x 11ft has an impressive fireplace, with a stone surround and a wood burning stove. A door opens to the Kitchen which is nicely fitted with a range of units and features a Belfast sink, a built-in oven with electric hob and with space and plumbing for a dishwasher; this is a double aspect room with windows to the front and the rear of the cottage. A step leads down to the Utility Room which has further space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and a fridge / freezer and from here there is a door that opens to the side of the cottage.
Also, on the ground floor, there is a small lobby with door to bathroom and stairs to the first floor. Here the stairs rise into Bedroom Two and from this room a door opens into the Main Bedroom; a good size double room, double aspect, with a view to the garden.
The cottage benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazed windows and we understand from the owner that underneath the floor coverings, the kitchen has handmade floor tiles and the sitting room features a flagstone floor.
Outside
Immediately to the front and side of the cottage, there is a small garden, set behind a low stone wall. On the opposite side of the road, there is off road parking and steps lead up to another area of garden which has a number of seating areas and there is a timber shed. From here there are views to adjoining farmland.
Situation
The desirable village of East Horrington is situated 2 miles outside of the cathedral city of Wells. Wells is the smallest city in England and offers a high proportion of independent shops and boutiques, banks, restaurants, public houses and cinema. The stunning market square holds a farmer's market on Wednesday and Saturday.
There are excellent schools available including West Horrington Primary School (within walking distance) which has an ‘outstanding’ Ofsted rating, and the extremely sought-after Wells Blue secondary school. There are several independent schools in the area including Wells Cathedral School and Millfield School.
The property is situated within good commuting distance of the Georgian city of Bath and the regional centre of Bristol, and a twenty minute drive to Castle Cary Station (rail links to London Paddington and Exeter). Bristol International Airport is 18 miles away.
