Nestled at the end of a terrace, this charming Grade II listed stone cottage, with origins dating back to the 1700s, is positioned in the sought-after village of Wellow, just a short drive from Bath. Once two distinct cottages, the property has remained in the same family for over 90 years and is now available on the market for the first time. The cottage boasts an idyllic setting described as a 'veritable sun trap,' offering breathtaking views across the Wellow valley and river. With delightful gardens that have thrived for decades, this residence offers not only peace but also considerable potential for modernization.
The internal layout spans two floors, featuring a cozy sitting room, a separate dining area, and a kitchen/breakfast room on the ground floor. The upper level accommodates three bedrooms along with a family bathroom, an additional shower room, and a WC. There is great potential for enhancement; future owners could explore options for modernizing elements of the home or extending to the rear—an option successfully undertaken by neighboring properties (subject to planning approval).
Wellow is known for its excellent community amenities including a primary school and the welcoming Fox & Badger pub, set against a backdrop of stunning countryside perfect for outdoor activities like walking and horse riding. This property promises not only a tranquil retreat but also an opportunity to invest in its heritage while shaping it into your dream home.
