A cute two bedroom semi-detached project cottage with private garden, situated in the quiet village of Seavington St. Mary. No onward chain.
THE AGENT SAYS...
1 Bakers Place is a charming cottage presented in liveable condition but requiring renovation and modernisation throughout. The property is a good size but the current layout doesn't make the best of this, particularly on the first floor, where reconfiguration could easily create an additional bedroom. Downstairs the kitchen is small but the adjoining sitting room is large and there is plenty of scope to create a larger kitchen, kitchen/dining room, or more open plan space, if desired.
THE PROPERTY
Entering the property, the dining room is on the right. This is a lovely, south-facing room, filled with warm light. The fireplace (open fire) is an attractive focal point, flanked by deep alcoves that are perfect for built-in storage. The entrance hall continues to the rear of the cottage (a lobby separates access to the garden) and turns in a L-shape to the rest of the living accommodation.
The sitting room also faces south and is a large room with exposed beams, a wood burning stove, and a tall built-in storage cupboard. At the rear of the cottage is the kitchen which is small but functional and benefits from a view over the rear garden. Enlarging the kitchen and adding doors (if possible) out to the garden would transform the feel of the cottage.
A wide, winding staircase rises to the first floor where there are two generous double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The current bathroom has an abundance of wasted space and there is great potential to use this extra space in a reconguration of the first floor to create three bedrooms and an improved family bathroom. There may also be an opportunity to create a ground floor WC as the rear hallway is large and there is space under the stairs (currently used for a small fridge-freezer and storage).
OUTSIDE
The cottage is slightly elevated, with a few steps from the pavement to the front door and a small, lawned front garden. The rear garden is fully enclosed by fencing and walling. It is laid to lawn with hardstanding outside the house and further areas under the side wall. There is pedestrian access alongside the house from front to back.
SERVICES
Mains water, drainage and electricity. Heating via wood burning stove, open fire and some electric heaters.
