No onward chain - motivated seller! Thought to have been built in 1837 and for sale for the first time in 120 years, Laburnum Cottage offers 3 bedrooms, characterful living accommodation, large garden, garage, parking and a detached 325 sq ft workshop - situated in the picturesque hamlet of Woolston, nestled between the Quantock villages of Bicknoller and Sampford Brett and overlooking the West Somerset Steam Railway.
Whilst the property is semi detached, the ground floor adjoining space is the entrance passage to Manor Farm, the first floor adjoining is to the landing of the stairs of Manor Farm. Thus there is little to no adjoining accommodation between the properties.
The property has been incredibly well maintained with recent improvements including a new roof, locally made oak double glazed windows and matching doors, newly painted fascia boards and additional loft insulation. Minor cosmetic upgrades are required but the cottage offers a fantastic opportunity for a new buyer to make it their own. The accommodation comprises, on the ground floor - entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen/dining room, pantry, utility room and bathroom. On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms, one with an ensuite WC.
The property benefits from a good broadband connection, with speeds of up to 900 mbps.
Externally there is an attractive courtyard immediately to the rear of the property which is turn leads to the main garden which has been landscaped with areas of lawn, vegetable plots, patios and a large range of mature shrubs and trees. The large established vegetable plots make it ideal for those wanting to lead a more self-sufficient lifestyle but equally the garden could be laid to lawn to create a level, easy to maintain garden. The property benefits from side access via a right of way. There is also a covered seating area ideal for alfresco dining and a greenhouse.
Within the garden there is a large workshop with light and power. The workshop extends to approx. 325 sq. Ft. And has potential for a wide range of uses such as studio, office, annex or hobby room (subject to planning).
Opposite the house lies a single garage and 1 off road parking space. Off street parking is available directly outside the house and it is an unspoken rule within the Hamlet that no one else uses this space. This would also be an ideal space for a hook up for an electric car charging point.
The property is situated in an idyllic location within the hamlet of Woolston, between the villages of Sampford Brett and Bicknoller. The Hamlet has been wired up for fibre broadband via Airband which should be connected in the first quarter of 2024. The larger rural village of Williton is just 2 miles and offers day to day amenities such as a Co-Op, Spar, Post Office, doctors surgery, vets, takeaways, cafe's and a small industrial estate offering a range of businesses and services. Taunton, the county town, has a wide range of shopping and schooling facilities and fast road and rail links to Exeter, Bristol and London.
