The front entrance provides an enclosed porch with quarry tiled floor leading to a small inner lobby with stairs to the first floor and the sitting room with its hamstone fireplace, engineered oak floor and fitted cupboards together with views to the large garden.
The kitchen/dining/family room is sheer delight, bright and airy with a central island, central "lantern" sky window, integral dishwasher, microwave oven and engineered oak floor. There is space for a range cooker. There is a downstairs wc/cloakroom.

To the rear of the property is vehicle access leading to the rear drive/parking area via wooden 5 bar gates. Adjacent to this is a garage/store and a separate workshop with power and light. This in turn leads to a lovely covered courtyard paved area with a retaining wall, enclosed wooden store with plumbing and space for a washing machine/tumble dryer. There is also the oil fired boiler. This area provides a covered space ideal for many uses, including drying your clothes/washing or children to play while raining, or just a pleasant seating area to get from the summer sun!
Adjacent to this is a lovely little raised and gravelled area, suitable for a table and two chairs to enjoy your morning coffee/breakfast whilst looking over farmland.
The garden is a very good size and again adjacent is open fields and farmland. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with flower and shrub beds/borders, apple trees, fruit bushes, natural hedging, garden shed, and further access to a beautifully private area currently fitted with a covered bar and seating/barbeque area, again adjoining open farmland and enjoying lovely views.
Situation
This lovely character cottage is tucked away from the main village of Montacute, in a private position within a very quiet no through lane (adopted) adjoining farmland to the side and front with delightful views. A real gem!
Montacute is a beautiful village adorned with many character properties built of local hamstone intermingled with other modern properties. The village is home to the National Trust owned Montacute House together with benefiting from facilities including an active and friendly community, a petrol station/convenience store, village store, Post Office, two public houses, primary school and village hall. It is also surrounded by National Trust Woodland with wonderful walks up onto Ham Hill. This cherished local beauty spot remains a prominent feature as it overlooks the surrounding villages, providing stunning views over the surrounding countryside.
Larger towns which are close by and offer a host of amenities include Yeovil the regional centre, Stoke Sub Hamdon, South Petherton, Martock and Crewkerne which has a Waitrose and a Mainline Train station with direct lines to London or Exeter.
Montacute really is a great village with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and many community groups for all ages, depending on your pursuits.
