A four bedroom detached property on the outskirts of the desirable village of Witham Friary with far reaching countryside views, garden bordering rewilding fields, and a separate studio, perfect for working from home. Sold with the benefit of no onward chain.
About the property:
Positioned on the edge of the desirable village of Witham Friary and bordering open countryside with stunning views, 1 New Friary Cottages is a stone fronted detached property boasting four bedrooms, oak floors and a large living room and conservatory opening out onto the garden. The double garage has been converted into a large studio space/consulting rooms and there is planning in place for an additional office. There is plenty of driveway parking, friendly neighbours, and the property is offered for sale with the benefit of no onward chain.
About the inside:
The welcoming oak floored hallway opens into all the principal ground floor rooms. To the left is a timeless oak kitchen with granite worktops. A large electric rangecooker takes centre stage, and a double belfast sink sits under the window overlooking the front. The underfloor heating continues into the utility room and wet room beyond. Also overlooking the front is a useful study, also with oak floors, and next is a dining room opening into the conservatory with beautiful tiled floors and doors opening into the living room and to the patio to the rear. The generous living room has large patio doors flooding the room with natural light and gives access straight onto the garden, perfect for entertaining. A multi fuel burner sits within the fireplace.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms accessed from a generous landing. The principal bedroom enjoys stunning views across open countryside, and benefits from built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. The modern family shower room features a circular stone sink set on an oak vanity unit.
About the outside:
A gravelled driveway provides parking for several vehicles and a paved path across the front lawn leads to the stone porch. The expansive rear garden borders open fields that have been rewilded and the discreet fence allows stunning views to the hills beyond. Mature trees and shrubs soften the fencing to either side and a paved patio provides an ideal space for al fresco dining. To the side is ample room for sheds and storage and a covered BBQ area.
The double garage has been converted into a large fully insulated studio space/office, ideal for those looking to work from home, with the roof fitted with an array of solar panels connected to the grid and providing excess energy. Planning permission has also been granted to build an additional office alongside.
About the area:
The attractive Somerset village of Witham Friary is surrounded by neighbouring countryside. The Seymour Arms public house is at the centre of this farming village and the local primary school is in the adjacent village of Upton Noble. The popular town of Bruton is just 6 miles to the south and has a range of local shops, smart restaurants and the Hauser and Wirth gallert with a beautiful garden designed by Piet Oudolf.
Another nearby destination is Babington House, the private members club. The market town of Frome is also approximately 6 miles to the north and has extensive amenities including shops, boutiques as well as two theatres, a cinema, restaurants and cafes.
The Georgian city of Bath is just over 20 miles away and the regional centre of Bristol is approximately 25 miles away. Nearby Castle Cary boasts a train station with direct links to London Paddington.
