House For Sale £525,000
An enchanting and sumptuously presented three/four bedroom country cottage with pretty gardens, parking and situated on a no through road close to South Petherton and the medieval market town of Ilminster.
An utterly enchanting, flexible and beautifully presented three bedroom Grade II Listed cottage with parking and pretty gardens. In brief the property comprises a sitting room, dining room, kitchen, snug, rear porch and shower room to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. The current owners have been proud custodians of Thatchcroft, carefully combining modern day living with original charm and character. It should be noted that a new thatch roof was added in 2017 giving any potential buyer peace of mind with regards to its longevity. The sitting room is a joy to behold and such is its magnitude, has been cleverly compartmentalised into two defined areas. The first is a relaxed setting for socialising or reading with the second an ideal space to hunker down through the colder months in main thanks to wood burner, offering practical heat and an attractive focal point. The formal dining room is an intimate setting for those who enjoy formal entertaining with direct access into the kitchen, which is well fitted and takes in views to the garden. The snug is a highly versatile space and would also make an excellent study, bedroom or play room, depending on one’s needs. To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms which are all serviced by the family bathroom and the shower room with WC (located on the ground floor). We would recommend families, retirees and those simply wanting a magical home just a stone’s throw from the ever popular village of South Petherton to view.
Watergore is situated just a short drive to South Petherton. South Petherton itself offers a good selection of day-to-day facilities including boutique stores, a butcher, bakery, greengrocer, wine merchant, pharmacy, newsagent and Post Office along with the new London restaurant HOLM. The village has an active community spirit and welcomes a revived annual Folk Festival and other local events throughout the year offering a variety of music, arts and culture. Yeovil to the east or the county town of Taunton to the west both offer a wider selection of shopping and recreational facilities. Communication links to the area are good, with the A303 providing links to the A30 and to the M5 at Junction 25. Mainline stations at Castle Cary, Yeovil and Taunton offer regular services to central London (less than two hours from Castle Cary) and Exeter Airport has a growing number of national and international flights, including daily flights to London City Airport
The property is approached by a no-through road leading to off-road parking and walled front garden. The rear garden is an idyllic wildlife haven laid to lawn and patio and further complemented by a wealth of mature shrubs, colourful flora and trees. It’s a private setting for alfresco dining and sitting out in the warmer months whilst those with children and/or pets will appreciate it is fully enclosed. There are also two very useful garden sheds.
