To the left, the drawing room is a good size, 19’ 6” x 15’ 8” and is a great room to entertain or relax in, with its large inglenook fireplace and log burner. Sash windows are to the front aspect, whilst a doorway through to the shop premises (currently closed off) could be easily reinstated for those looking for additional business space - it has previously been used in this manner as an art gallery.
To the rear of the hallway is the utility room, which is plumbed for laundry facilities, has a butler sink and a loo.
Off to the right of the entrance hall lies the sitting room, again a good size (17’ 2” x 15’ 11”), and also has an eye-catching inglenook fireplace with log burner fitted. An elevated study or coffee area (18’ 5” x 7’ 6”) with parquet flooring and large, glazed panel windows which overlook the garden, give this room a lovely degree of versatility with two distinct separate areas in its own right.
Following on, a dining room provides space for a more formal setting and provides plenty of space for a large table and chairs, whilst a breakfast room follows on again and links directly to the kitchen. In all, plenty of living space with an array of different options if desired.
The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall, base and drawer units with space for an island or central table. An electric double oven, 5 ring hob with cooker hood and 1 ½ bowl sink and drainer unit are all fitted, with space for further kitchen appliances and built in larder cupboard.
Upon the first floor, there are four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a master ensuite shower room, along with a walk-in loft/store room which has the potential to be made into a dressing room if required. Additionally, a large bespoke storage unit sits along the landing.
The master room, separate to the other bedrooms and off to the left, has a bright dual aspect, provides plenty of space and offers a great amount of fitted storage with three built in cupboards, along with a private ensuite shower room with double width shower, loo and basin. Double doors open into a large attic store room which is already fitted with light, power and heating, and could very easily be converted into a dressing room if desired.
The remaining bedrooms are equally well proportioned, the largest of which is triple aspect. They all have a range of fitted storage within them and the second largest benefitting from an additional vanity unit and basin.
The family bathroom is smartly presented, fully tiled and offers a bath, shower, loo and basin.
Plenty of large windows throughout the first floor make the accommodation bright and airy.
The Shop Adjoining the house is the retail premises, which measures 17’ 3” x 10’ 1” on the ground floor, has tiled flooring, a w/c, and glazed windows to front and side, whilst stairs rise to a first-floor mezzanine which provides plenty of additional space.
The building has previously been used as a shop, a hairdresser and barbers, and a gallery.
There is potential to integrate a further room from the main house (the drawing room) through a doorway. This is currently sealed but can easily be reinstated.
The building is connected with power (separately metered from the house), along with water and drainage.
Outside At the front of the house is paved parking for one car, with planted borders softening the curtilage.
Double gates open into a through garage of approximately 21’ in length, which in turn leads to an additional gravelled parking space beyond.
To the rear lies a pretty part walled garden, which is separated into two sections and provides a great deal of privacy. Both are predominantly laid to lawn and offer a variety of mature shrubs and specimen trees, whist the main garden also provides a pleasant paved terrace which abuts the main house and is a delightful spot for al fresco dining.
Additionally, there are several raised beds, a fruit cage, and access to a handy store room/workshop. This room measures approx. 22’ 6” x 5’ 6”, benefits from light & power and houses the brand new oil fired boiler.
This garden faces west, is well sheltered and a sun trap when the weather allows.
Location Coopers Cross House is situated in a prominent spot within the heart of Curry Rivel, well placed with the village amenities upon its doorstep. Curry Rivel is a charming, well connected and sought after village with essential amenities, including a convenience store, post office, C of E primary school, garage and an excellent pub/restaurant. The village itself is also well-placed with a bus service linking to the larger towns of Taunton and Yeovil, each with their own mainline railway stations. Langport known as the ‘heart of the levels’, with a GP surgery, large supermarket, range of independent shops and weekly local produce markets is a two minute drive away.
Local Schools Many of Somerset’s widely recognised independent schools are within easy commuting distance, including Millfield School, Queens Taunton, Taunton School, King’s Taunton, Hazelgrove and Wells Cathedral School. In neighbouring Langport there is also Huish Episcopi Primary school and the Huish Episcopi Academy, both local state schools as well as Strode College in Street.
Local sports Sporting facilities include racing at Wincanton, Taunton, Exeter & Bath, several good golf courses and numerous clubs for a wide variety of sports (cricket, tennis, squash, rugby, football, etc.).

It's also a fascinating historical area with roman remains, its past as Alfred’s capital of Wessex, its later reference in the Domesday Book and its partial ownership by the great abbeys of Muchelney and Glastonbury, before the dissolution of the monasteries. The Battle of Langport in 1645 in the Civil War, was close by as was the Battle of Sedgemoor in1685 in the Monmouth Rebellion.
