Nestled in a private position within the village of Stowey, this detached family home dates back to 1912 and comes to the market in immaculate condition. This property boasts beautiful accommodation with well-proportioned bedrooms and occupies a generously-sized, level plot with the added benefit of a detached annex/studio and a separate office. This is one of those rare opportunities where a house offers period charm together with all the benefits of modern construction, such as maximum insulation, triple glazed windows and underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. As a result this home comes highly recommended and is one not to be missed!
The front entrance hallway leads on the one side to a kitchen/diner with shaker-style fitted units, granite worktops, range oven and double doors leading to the conservatory. Off the kitchen is a utility room with matching fitted units and an American style fridge-freezer, a separate WC and a stable door rear entrance to the gardens. To the other side of the hallway there is a beautiful sitting room with a feature fireplace and multi-fuel log burner. A recently added large conservatory completes the ground floor accommodation and overlooks the stunning garden. Stairs lead from the hallway to the first floor. A spacious and light landing leads to a beautiful, modern family bathroom, two double bedrooms, a walk in wardrobe/dressing room, and entrance to the third bedroom. The double bedrooms have fireplaces: one having an en-suite shower room and the other having an air-conditioning unit. The third bedroom is on the 2nd floor and is accessed via wooden stairs and benefits from an adjoining WC. There is potential to enlarge this bedroom further by taking up some more of the loft space.
The gardens at Stowey Mead Cottage have an English country cottage feel at the front and then wrap around the side to the back, featuring large patio areas with a pergola, a lawn with well-established borders and a separate vegetable garden with stone-built raised beds and a gravelled path to a greenhouse. There is also a detached home office with an adjoining boiler/laundry room, which creates a lovely warm workspace in the cooler months! Across the shingled stone driveway there is a well-designed multifunctional annex, heated and cooled by an air conditioning unit. The annex is currently set up as extra accommodation, with a modern living area, steps up to a small room and shower room. Adjoining this annex is a storage shed on the one side, and on the other, a fenced area housing the oil tank and bin store.
