Nestled in the charming village of South Petherton, this three-bedroom Hamstone property, known as The Coke House, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and personalization. Dating back to the 1700s, this substantial home boasts a rich historical background while being unlisted, allowing for greater flexibility in future modifications. The property features bright and spacious accommodations with generously sized rooms that are bathed in natural light. A warm welcome is provided by the entrance hall which leads into a comfortable sitting room with double aspect windows and deep window seats that enhance the room's character. The adjoining kitchen/dining space is notably large, offering a modern layout with a range of base units and appliances—including a seven-burner gas hob—making it an ideal area for both culinary pursuits and entertaining guests.
