A most attractive detached period home, delightfully situated in a no-through lane within the sought-after village of Barton St. David. Occupying a superb 2 acre plot, this beautiful semi-rural property enjoys views across open countryside and benefits from a range of versatile outbuildings, providing excellent storage and scope for other uses (STPP). EPC Rating E.

This charming, semi-rural cottage is perfectly situated at the end of a very quiet no through lane, within the desirable village of Barton St. David and close to Castle Cary, Glastonbury, Street and Wells. The cottage offers charm and character in abundance, as well as huge amounts of scope to expand and improve further for the right buyer, whilst benefitting from several substantial outbuildings and grounds totalling approximately 2 acres.

The accommodation boasts numerous original and characterful features, including exposed stone, two wood burners in the principal sitting room and flagstone floors. On the ground floor, there is plenty of living space with a flexible layout providing up to three receptions, a galley-style kitchen, as well as a separate utility room and a spacious walk-in pantry.

On the first floor, there are two bedrooms which afford stunning, elevated views over the surrounding countryside, as well as a family bathroom. Outside, established private gardens envelope the cottage, extending out to the paddock at the rear. Additionally, large and versatile outbuildings provide additional storage and workshop space with the benefit of water and power connections. Subject to relevant permissions, these could make for further conversion opportunities.

The property is situated in the village of Barton St David which has local amenities including a church, public house and playing field. More comprehensive facilities can be found in the neighbouring villages of Keinton Mandeville and Butleigh, both of which have primary schools and Post Office/stores. The historic town of Glastonbury is 6 miles, The Cathedral City of Wells is 8.5 miles and the renowned Millfield Senior School on the outskirts of Street is 5 miles. For the commuter Castle Cary mainline station (London Paddington) is 7 miles as is the A303 at Podimore.

Approached from the front, a sweeping gravel driveway leads you to the cottage and parking area, passing mature lawns and an established cottage garden to the front of the property. The gardens are well stocked and come alive with an abundance of flora and fauna in the warmer months, giving the cottage very much a 'chocolate box' appearance from the front.

To the rear, an enclosed paddock extends out, seamlessly blending in with the open countryside beyond, whilst the large and versatile outbuildings offer fantastic scope for potential development or conversion, subject to the relevant permissions.
