Full Details for 3 Bedroom Detached for sale in Shepton Mallet, BA4 :
A charming unique three bedroom period cottage, beautifully presented and deceptively spacious. Displays a wealth of character throughout and a truly charming garden bustling with wildlife which has undergone extensive works and landscaping with views across the valley. Separate garage. Benefits from a conservatory and a cellar room (currently being used as a music studio but has perfect conditions to be used for wine).
DESCRIPTION A charming three bedroom attached period cottage located in a tucked away elevated position in the hamlet of Darshill, between Croscombe and Shepton Mallet. The property was developed from two former silk weavers cottages and is beautifully presented having recently been upgraded with new central heating, timber framed double glazing, bathroom, electrics and work tops. The property, which is deceptively spacious, displays a wealth of character throughout and a truly charming garden which has undergone extensive works and landscaping with views across the valley and a garage to the front. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall with storage space for coats and shoes, a utility room again with ample space for white goods and storage and kitchen with new work tops, range cooker and built in dishwasher. The open plan kitchen/dining area features wooden beams and an ornamental inglenook fireplace. The sitting area has wooden beams, book shelves and wood burner. The whole of the downstairs feels very light and airy due to the unusually high ceilings for this type of property and the double aspect. The conservatory can be accessed from the utility room or the sitting area which can either be used for an extra dining or sitting area with double doors opening up to the gardens. Steps lead outside the house to the cellar room/office (currently being used as a music studio but has perfect conditions to be used for wine). The first floor comprises of a galleried landing with an exposed stone feature wall, three bedrooms and a new family bathroom with overhead shower and bath.
OUTSIDE The gardens have undergone a full transformation over the last two years having been lovingly replanted and renovated to a high standard and bustling with wildlife. There are well tended terraced gardens to the side and rear with an area for seating around a bramley apple tree which look over views across the valley and three large fishponds with a waterfall. A gravel pathway leads from the conservatory through numerous beds, rockeries, shrubs, flowers and bushes along with mature fir, ornamental cherry, fig and yew trees to a gravelled area for outside furniture. Steps lead up to an outside wooden shed, wood store as well as a further terraced garden area containing a climbing rose, olive tree, espaliered apple tree and soft fruit bushes with enough land for a small vegetable garden or chicken run. There is also a wood shed and a garage with both power and light, with parking to the front.
LOCATION Darshill is situated between the Cathedral City of Wells and the historic market town of Shepton Mallet and within easy commuting distance of Bristol and Bath.
