House For Sale £240,000
If ever a house was deceptive, it's this one. Inside it gives you not only three bedrooms and a family bathroom but an en suite too, whilst outside it has both parking and a garden. A great value home for a family in a sought-after village.
The Property
In one of our prettiest villages, this great value village home is offered for sale with no onward chain and is presented well throughout having been nicely maintained by the current owners. If you’re on a budget but need three bedrooms, parking and a garden but still want a brilliant location then this property is a “must see”! The property benefits from double glazing throughout and oil fired central heating.
A clever internal layout means there’s more to this house than initially meets the eye. The front door opens into a hall, with useful corner storage cupboard, handy downstairs cloakroom and stairs rising to the first floor. There is practical wood effect flooring throughout the ground floor, with a well-proportioned living / dining room at the rear opening onto the rear garden. Full length windows and a double-glazed patio door let in lots of natural light from the rear and open onto the garden.
The kitchen / breakfast room overlooks the front and is fitted with a range of modern cream units comprising floor and wall mounted storage cupboards and drawers with work surfaces over incorporating integrated fridge and freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, Neff induction hob and double under counter oven, the latter two installed in 2021. The oil-fired boiler is located to one corner. The boiler was installed in 2021 and has the remainder of a 10 year guarantee. On the first-floor doors from the landing open to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. To the front is a double bedroom with en suite shower including a corner shower cubicle with mains Aqualisa shower, WC and wash hand basin, alongside a white ladder style towel radiator. A surprisingly roomy family bathroom is attractively tiled with contemporary neutral tiling and fitted white suite including bath with shower attachment over, wash hand basin and WC. This bathroom serves two further bedrooms, another smaller double room and a single bedroom.
Outside
The property is approached over a shared footpath to the front which is screened from the village hall by a traditional stone wall with each property having a small area of front garden, large enough for a couple of pretty pots or storage of bins etc. The rear garden is currently laid to lawn with a patio and path leading to a pedestrian gate leading out onto the rear access path behind with a few shrubs, perfect for those who do not like too much maintenance but also giving potential for keen gardeners to make it their own. At the end of the terrace is a locked area housing each property’s oil tank for the central heating. There is an allocated parking space for No.4 along with an extra three visitor spaces which can be used on a first come, first served basis.
Agents Note
Barrington Mews Management Company are responsible for the upkeep of the car park area, paths and fencing surrounding the oil tanks. The vendor informs us that currently the properties pay c.£250 a year towards Barrington Mews Management Company to cover this.
We understand there is a further charge of c.£20 per annum towards the shared upkeep of the village hall car park entrance over which residents have access.
The freehold of the car parking area is owned by Barrington Mews Management Company of which each resident is an owner and has a designated space.
Barrington is one of South Somerset’s most attractive conservation villages and boasts an enviable position with easy access to excellent road links via the A303 and A358 and yet does not lie on a main road itself. The renowned National Trust property Barrington Court lies at one end of the village and is much more than somewhere to visit. There is a range of artisan workshops, second hand bookstore, café / restaurant, gift shop and lots of lovely spaces to enjoy the peace and quiet over a picnic perhaps. There is a super network of public footpaths criss-crossing the estate and village, excellent for dog-walking.
The Barrington Boar is a very well-respected pub with rooms and excellent food and is just a short walk from the property. There is a thriving community spirit at Barrington with lots of things to get involved with should you wish. The village hall is very much a hub for activities and events, which include Community Coffee mornings, a Local Produce Market, Gardening club, Choral society, Amateur dramatics group (The Barrington Players), Pilates, Zumba and Yoga, Historical dance, Table Tennis and Bridge. There really is something for everyone.
