This charming cottage, set on approximately 3/4 acres and accompanied by a variety of outbuildings, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and potential expansion. With additional land available for purchase, this property is perfect for those looking to invest in a rural retreat with room to grow. Nestled away from immediate neighbours, it still boasts excellent transport links to Taunton and the A303, making it an ideal spot for both privacy and accessibility.
Constructed from weathered red brick with pitched tiled and fibre cement roofs, the cottage currently requires complete refurbishment. The existing layout features two inviting reception rooms, a spacious kitchen, and a ground-floor bathroom. An adjoining storeroom offers the possibility to expand the main dwelling as desired. The first floor accommodates two double bedrooms; however, the expansive grounds offer ample opportunity for an extension (subject to planning), transforming this into a splendid family home.
Located on the eastern edge of Taunton amidst picturesque farmland, this property provides both seclusion and stunning views. The nearby village of Stoke St Mary is known for its vibrant community spirit and offers various amenities including a local pub and village hall. Additionally, Lower Henlade combines an attractive rural setting with proximity to Taunton’s town centre and Junction 25 of the M5 motorway, ensuring convenient access to comprehensive retail options and recreational facilities.
The approach to the property includes a gravelled parking area as well as a concrete hardstanding at the rear which could serve multiple uses or potentially be converted into an annexe (subject to planning). The gardens predominantly lie to the front and side of the property with established hedgerows, while some areas are in need of restoration after being left uncared-for recently.
Furthermore, there is an opportunity to acquire additional land outlined on the plan that can be purchased separately if desired.
