Most attractive edge of village house available for the first time in 48 years.
Paddocks was built in the 1950's, the façade facing south west and covered with wisteria and honeysuckle. The property is a much loved and cherished home, having remained in the same family since 1977. The front door opens into a spacious hallway with a light filled double aspect dining room to the east and a generous double aspect sitting room with open fireplace to the west, with Crittall French doors leading to a terrace. There is a downstairs cloakroom, kitchen overlooking the rear lawn and fields beyond, a pantry and boot room with access to a rear terrace and fuel store. Upstairs there is a bathroom, two bedrooms overlooking the front garden and two overlooking the rear gardens with far reaching views over open country. The house would now benefit from modernisation and there is great scope for extension subject to the necessary consents (NB Proposal drawings and a pre-application response from South Somerset Council are available on request.)
Outside
Paddocks sits towards the rear of its plot and is approached up a long tarmac driveway flanked with level areas of lawn and culminating in an area for parking. Opposite the house to the south is a fish pond beyond which a low dry stone wall with steps leads to a higher lawn, dominated by a beautiful weeping willow tree. A mature beech hedge provides a boundary to the west. Outside the sitting room on the western flank of the house is a terrace. Steps from here lead up to the rear lawn which spans across the back of the house and beyond to the east, broken up with mature shrubs and a lovely herbaceous border, together with some other mature trees. The rear garden backs onto fields. There is a garden shed and access at the front of the property to a single garage with car charging point.
