Description
Steeped in history, this stunning semi-detached period cottage, believed to date back to the 1600s, is positioned in the heart of the picturesque village of Clapton In Gordano. The property sits on a generous plot extending to 0.375 of an acre with delightful gardens to the rear and side offering stunning open countryside views.
The charming accommodation comprises of an entrance hallway leading to the dining room on one side and to the other, a cosy lounge featuring a log burner set into a beautiful stone inglenook fireplace. The galley style kitchen has both an Aga stove and modern oven and opens to the rear conservatory with a lovely outlook across the garden . Stairs from the hallway lead to the first floor with three generously sized bedrooms, a small child’s room , a spacious landing with study area ( the perfect spot for enjoying the country views) and a bathroom with modern fittings.
The property has been lovingly maintained, preserving many of its period features while providing all the modern conveniences necessary for comfortable living.
Externally, the property offers a wealth of potential with a substantial block of four outbuildings (formerly loose box stables), providing scope for an annex (subject to planning permission), a garage, and ample off-street parking for several vehicles, making this property ideal for a growing family or anyone requiring additional space.
The rear garden is predominantly laid to a wide expanse of lawn interspersed by working Somerset cider apple trees (which originally formed part of the orchard which supplied the public house going back hundreds of years), and neatly clipped shrubs and backs directly onto open fields.
