3 bed terraced house for sale

Fosse Road, Oakhill, Radstock BA3

Fosse Road, Oakhill, Radstock

Guide Price: £375,000 - £400,000. Dating back to 1870, the property is a beautifully converted former outbuilding, thoughtfully reimagined to create a light filled, open plan home while retaining a wealth of original character. Tucked away in a peaceful position within the village and backing directly onto open parkland, the property has both privacy and far reaching rural views. It could be an ideal lock-up-and-leave or a charming village home.

The renovation has been carried out with great sensitivity, preserving charming period features such as arched doorways and windows, exposed stonework and beams, alongside the warmth of wooden floorboards that flow throughout much of the ground floor. The sitting room is particularly inviting, with a striking arched window and a large historic opening - once used for coach access - now framing the space and allowing natural light to pour in. Glazed panels flanking the front door further enhance the bright and airy feel.

To the rear, the open plan layout continues into a well-appointed kitchen, fitted with modern units and has space for a dining table. Quarry tiled flooring - believed to be reclaimed and reminiscent of that found in the local church - adds both character and practicality, complemented by an exposed stone wall. French doors lead seamlessly out to the garden, creating an ideal setting for indoor-outdoor living.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom, positioned at the front, has a south-facing aspect with delightful views across open countryside, often dotted with grazing cattle, and features an exposed beam adding to its charm. The family bathroom is equally well positioned to take advantage of the views and is finished with a classic white suite, tasteful tiling and a distinctive feature window. Two further bedrooms, both overlooking the garden, provide comfortable additional accommodation.

Outside: The property is approached via an attractive cobbled frontage with off road parking for two cars. To the rear, the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of inviting spaces. A paved terrace sits directly outside the kitchen, leading to a sunken garden with artificial lawn, and rising to a further seating area. From here, uninterrupted views stretch beyond a charming ‘cock and hen’ stone wall across open parkland, where a magnificent, quintessentially English oak tree provides a stunning focal point.

This property is a rare blend of period charm and modern comfort, set within a tranquil and picturesque village setting.

Location: The Coach House is situated in the heart of the village of Oakhill, and is set away from main roads. The village is situated in the East Mendip Hills and both cities of Bath and Bristol are within easy commute.

Oakhill itself has an excellent primary school and there are secondary schools in both Wells and Shepton Mallet.
