A charming stone-built double fronted cottage set in the heart of a sought-after Mendip village, brimming with character dating back to the 1800s. The property offers a deceptive size and versatile layout along with an adaptable detached garage, creating a warm and welcoming home ideal for a growing family.
Set back from the A37 through the well-served Mendip village of Gurney Slade - an ideal location for commuters travelling to Bath, Bristol or Wells - this fabulous cottage has been lovingly maintained since its purchase in 1994 and thoughtfully extended to create a generous family home. The property has also benefited from new doors and windows in recent years.
The accommodation begins with the front entrance opening into a spacious sitting room, featuring exposed wooden beams and a multi-fuel stove fireplace, which can also run the central heating and hot water independently. A door from the sitting room leads into the dining room, which could equally serve as a home office. This room features a period-style fireplace, wooden beams and open access to an inner hall with stairs rising to the first floor, a WC, and a door leading to the kitchen/breakfast room.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of units, complementary worktops and splashbacks, space for appliances, and continues the characterful theme with exposed wooden beams. A door leads through to a useful utility room with rear access to the garden. Adjacent to the utility is a store with dual access to both the front and rear.
On the first floor, there are four bedrooms. The main bedroom features fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom two benefits from built-in wardrobes, while bedroom three has a built-in wardrobe and a walk-in wardrobe/airing cupboard. A four-piece family bathroom with a separate shower cubicle completes the accommodation.
Externally, the front of the property is laid to gravel with a low-level wall and mature shrub. To the side, a driveway leads to a detached double garage with cavity wall insulation and a WC - offering excellent potential for conversion into an annex, home office or studio, subject to the necessary permissions.
