The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
Situated within the popular village of Bratton Fleming, on the fringes of Exmoor National Park, is this charming and versatile three-bedroom detached character cottage offering generous living accommodation, ample parking and delightful gardens, all available with no onward chain.
Occupying an attractive plot with excellent frontage, the property is approached via a gated driveway providing parking for several vehicles and leading to a range of useful outbuildings, including a single garage and workshop. While the property would now benefit from some modernisation, it presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers to create a wonderful family home tailored to their own tastes and requirements.
The accommodation is full of character and charm, beginning with a welcoming sitting room featuring exposed ceiling beams, a brick fireplace with multi-fuel stove and matching brick hearth, creating an attractive focal point. A second reception room, currently utilised as a formal sitting room but equally suited as a dining room, enjoys a large front-facing window, feature fireplace and decorative wall panelling.
To the rear of the property is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, offering excellent potential for enhancement and redesign. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room providing additional storage and space for white goods. Also accessed from the rear of the property is a delightful garden room with sliding doors opening onto the front garden, providing an ideal space to relax and enjoy the sunny aspect throughout the day. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a family bathroom fitted with a three-piece suite.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to three well-proportioned double bedrooms. Bedrooms one and two benefit from attractive bay windows to the front elevation, enjoying lovely far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
Externally, the gardens are positioned predominantly to the front of the property and enjoy a sunny and relatively private aspect. A paved patio extends directly from the front entrance, leading onto an extensive lawn bordered by a variety of mature plants and shrubs, creating an attractive outdoor space for both relaxation and entertaining.
Combining character features, generous accommodation and excellent potential, this charming detached cottage enjoys a desirable village setting close to Exmoor National Park and is offered to the market with no onward chain.
