4 bedroom house for sale

A charming period detached residence situated in an elevated position on the edge of this popular and convenient location. Beautiful gardens, garage and ample parking.

Windmill Cottage is a beautiful detached residence sat in a prominent position along the top of Puriton Hill. The property has far-reaching views and benefits from convenient access to the motorway network. We believe the cottage dates back to circa. 1750 and was extended in the late 1980's. The current owners have maintained and improved the property over the last 18 years, whilst retaining lots of charm and character features.

The spacious and flexible accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises; an entrance porch opens into the breakfast room and through into the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a good range of wall, base and drawer units, along with a range cooker. From the breakfast room you will find the well-proportioned dining room which further opens into the double aspect sitting room. The sitting room is a lovely room with a wood burning stove and overlooks the beautiful gardens with French doors leading out. The sitting room and breakfast room both open into an inner hallway with staircase rising to the first floor and finally on the ground floor you will find a useful utility and WC.

On the first floor there are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a Victorian style suite which includes a freestanding roll top bath and separate shower cubicle.

Outside, the beautifully landscaped and manicured gardens are a particular feature and extend to approximately 0.39 acres. The property is accessed via a five bar gate which opens onto a brick paved driveway, providing ample parking for several vehicles and leading to a detached garage with light and power. The gardens are on different levels and are predominantly laid to lawn with an array of mature shrubs, trees, flower beds and herbaceous borders. There is an extensive patio which provides an ideal space for outside dining and entertaining. An attractive timber summerhouse overlooks the garden and offers a further patio to the side. There are useful sheds providing storage and a greenhouse. The elevated position means that the property and gardens benefit from lovely views across the Poldens and towards the Mendips.

An early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate this charming village home in a picturesque setting.
