Property Description

Offered with the benefit of no onward chain, we are delighted to bring to the market this centrally located, historic property (formerly part of the Wheatsheaf Pub). A unique property in the very heart of the village with the addition of parking and a studio (which could be used for extra living space, an office, artist’s studio or B&B opportunity). This character cottage, built of stone with rendered upper elevations under a tiled roof, has been improved and updated over recent years to include a bespoke kitchen, conservatory and detached studio alongside plenty of character features with stone mullion windows to the front, slate and timber floors.

Of particular note, recent renovations have included new windows (with secondary glazing to front Mullion windows and uPVC double glazed windows to the rest of the property), a new roof to the front section, repointing to the chimney, new consumer unit with full electrical testing. There is a Gas boiler with central heating throughout and new Gas stove in the Sitting Room.

Outside there is a well set out, sunny courtyard garden with views across the village, a parking area for 2 cars and a detached studio.

South Petherton is a beautiful Somerset village set in attractive surrounding countryside yet just half a mile from the A303 road. The village offers a wide range of independent shopping facilities, two schools, library, excellent pub, churches, hospital, doctor and veterinary surgeries, chemist, tennis and bowling clubs and the acclaimed restaurant Holm. There are bus services to neighbouring towns and villages. Yeovil is 10 miles, Crewkerne (mainline station to Waterloo) 6 miles, Ilminster 6 miles, the county town of Taunton (M5 Motorway and mainline station to Paddington) 18 miles, and the south coast at Lyme Regis 22 miles.
