2 bedroom cottage for sale

On the edge of Wedmore, with a private rear garden and lovely countryside views, this charming two-bedroom cottage has an open-plan kitchen/dining area, a spacious sitting room, and is on the market with vacant possession.

Since 2018, Perriwinkle Cottage has been completely renovated and refurbished, including rewiring, new kitchen and bathroom and the installation of a new boiler. The cottage is decorated throughout in a modern colour palette with practical, hardwearing vinyl flooring downstairs and warmer carpet upstairs in the bedrooms. The ground floor has a satisfying circular flow round from the hall, through the sitting room, past the door to the rear garden, into the kitchen and dining room, and returning to the front door. The sitting room and the kitchen/dining room both span the depth of the cottage and, as such, have light flooding in from the front and the back. For anyone working from home, or wanting a dining area separate to the kitchen, the sitting room has plenty of space to accommodate a study area or dining table along with comfortable chairs and sofas. The kitchen has recently been fitted with a contemporary range of base and wall units topped with contrasting work surfaces and breakfast bar. There is an integrated dishwasher, electric oven and hob, and there is space for other appliances. An area for coats and boots opposite the back door was once a handy WC and it retains the Saniflo pipework if anyone wished to reinstate it. The two bedrooms are upstairs and both benefit from lovely countryside views. They share a light, bright family bathroom which is fitted with a WC, wash-hand basin, and a bath with a shower over.

Outside there is a south-facing, level, rear garden which is mainly laid to lawn with mature borders, paved terracing, a water butt and a garden shed. At the front, a low, stone wall encloses a shingle border where there is space for some pots and planters, and steps to the front door.
