3 bedroom detached house for sale

An enchanting 3 bedroom cottage full of character, set within grounds of circa 1.8 acres including paddock and pretty gardens, plenty of parking, garage, flexible accommodation and surrounded by open countryside.


We are delighted to offer this quintessential, three bedroom detached country cottage C.1929, with stunning gardens, large paddock, off-road parking, garage and superb views. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, living room, kitchen, dining room, study, garden room and WC/shower room and utility to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. This charming home is beguiling from the outset and will capture the hearts of anyone looking for semi-rural living, surrounded by rolling Somerset countryside. The large, triple aspect sitting room has exposed floorboards and a working open-fireplace, ideal for unwinding throughout the seasons and hosting family and friends. The kitchen is well-fitted and benefits from an electric Rayburn and leads directly into the dining room. The garden room is a wonderful addition and takes in an expansive vista over the wildlife friendly gardens, paddock, fields and hills beyond. The three double bedrooms to the first floor are all well-proportioned with the high ceilings emphasising the sense of space. They are serviced by the family bathroom. The attached garage is a useful extra space and would make an excellent study, workshop or gym. That said, there is the very real possibility of integrating it into further living accommodation (subject to the necessary consents) should one wish. Court Cottage is a rare find, particularly given its further
potential, land and setting and we would strongly encourage those looking for a semi-rural retreat to view.

Cricket Malherbie is situated in quintessentially rural surroundings near the pretty and thriving market town of Ilminster in South Somerset. Close to open countryside it lies in an area known for its natural beauty, walking, country sports and local produce. Just 15 miles from the South Coast, the amenities and water sports of Lyme Regis and the Jurassic coastline are within easy driving distance. Local services and shopping are best found in Ilminster, and Chard both about 2 miles away.

The property is approached via a private, gated entrance leading to plenty of off-road parking and the garage. The gardens to Court Cottage lie to all sides and are laid mainly to sweeping lawns and further complemented by an abundance of colourful flora, mature shrubs and trees. It’s an enchanting and idyllic setting for alfresco dining, sitting out in the warmer months and enjoying with family and friends. In all the grounds extend to circa 1.8 acres of which the majority is made up to a large paddock with road access. It is ideal for those looking for their own ‘taste of the good’ life and whether its donkeys, sheep or perhaps even a shepherds hut, it’s a highly versatile space. There is also a potting shed and field shelter. The property is surrounded my majestic rolling countryside and is entirely private. A rare and exciting opportunity.
