Property description

An Outstanding opportunity to purchase this extremely well-presented and deceptively spacious 3 double bedroom Hamstone cottage in the desirable village of Higher Odcombe. Extended to the rear with extensive recent improvements, this unique cottage boasts stone mullion windows, off road parking, gas central heating and exceptional views all the way to Glastonbury Tor at the rear!

The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch, large lounge with exposed Hamstone, beams and a log burner, a decent sized dining room and large square modern kitchen with double glazed French doors into the garden. The first floor benefits from 3 double bedrooms and a large luxurious bathroom replaced within the last year. The property also boasts off-road parking to the front and a good sized enclosed rear garden enjoying far reaching views to the north.  

The property occupies a large plot and enjoys a quiet position within a lane in a conservation area on the edge of this sought after village which lies just a couple of miles left of Yeovil. Access to the A303 can be easily gained by the nearby village of Montacute.

This really is an exceptional and unique family home in a very desirable area that has been thoughtfully improved and extended in recent years. Viewing is essential to appreciate all this fine property has to offer.
