With uninterrupted vistas stretching out across neighbouring farmland, Welldiggers enjoys a delightfully rural position on the edge of Compton village. Surrounded by open countryside and dating back to circa 1850, this handsome Victorian semi-detached cottage has been thoughtfully modernised while retaining the hallmark character of its era — including exposed oak beams and open fireplace with a fitted log stove.

Arranged across two floors and with three generous double bedrooms, the interiors have been stylishly updated to support contemporary family life. Recent improvements include a complete rewire and new electrics (2020), a new combination boiler, and the replacement of ceilings and floors throughout. High-speed fibre broadband has been installed directly to the property, along with excellent mobile coverage, ensuring modern connectivity in a tranquil countryside setting.

The accommodation includes a sympathetic Shaker-style kitchen and a beautifully updated bathroom, both carefully chosen to complement the period character of the home.

The ground floor flows from a welcoming entrance hallway into a sitting room where an open fireplace creates a warm focal point and the surrounding beams nod to the home’s heritage. A separate dining room offers space for entertaining, and a dedicated study is ideal for home working. At the rear, the kitchen has been beautifully finished to reflect the cottage’s character, with classic cabinetry, wooden worktops and views out across the garden. A modern cloakroom/WC completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, all three bedrooms are comfortable doubles, each with their own charm and views, while the modernised family bathroom enjoys a peaceful outlook across the fields beyond.

Outside
The gardens are a real highlight. Extending to over a third of an acre and bordered by mature planting, the plot offers both privacy and space to breathe. A large gravel driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached double garage with loft storage, ideal for hobbies or additional workspace.

To the rear, a covered terrace provides a year-round outdoor living and entertaining space, complete with outdoor kitchen featuring hot and cold water, power, lighting, and heaters. Beyond, sweeping lawns stretch out to meet open farmland, creating an idyllic setting for relaxing, gardening or family time.
