Description

This detached period residence is set on a substantial plot of nearly half an acre, presenting a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors. With considerable refurbishment required throughout, this spacious property allows for creative reimagining, ideal for those seeking to establish a multi-generational living space or a home office environment in a serene location.

Situated in a tranquil setting with no immediate neighbours, the property boasts good access to major road links via the A303 at South Petherton, and is conveniently located near open fields as well as essential local amenities. The layout includes two staircases which provide flexibility in design - potentially accommodating single-level living or an annexe arrangement.

The ground floor features an inviting entrance lobby leading into a snug reception room. Adjacent is a further reception room that includes one of the staircases, granting independent access to three upstairs bedrooms. The kitchen and breakfast room offer generous space with views over the gardens, while an inner hall connects to the bathroom. The sitting room, enhanced by French doors to the front garden and equipped with a woodburning stove, creates a comfortable communal area. An additional home office/study space complements this room.

Upstairs, the master bedroom benefits from pastoral views along with an ensuite shower room and built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom also enjoys its own en suite WC, while two further first-floor rooms can share the ground floor bathroom.

Externally, the property features private gated access leading to ample parking and an adjoining outbuilding constructed from brick and timber. The expansive garden/paddock area is bordered by mature trees and provides significant outdoor potential.

This property stands within Lopenhead, positioned between Seavington St Michael and South Petherton. Nearby local attractions include popular cafés and farm shops featuring locally sourced produce. The vibrant village of South Petherton offers numerous independent shops, eateries including award-winning restaurants, and community facilities such as schools and cultural venues.

The town of Crewkerne is just a short drive away providing further amenities including supermarkets and transport links to London Waterloo.
