This striking, period residence stands prominently as a delightful historic building within the popular village of Cossington, to the north of The Poldens, and five miles away from Bridgwater.

The three-bedroom detached dwelling is constructed of attractive stonework and internally, it has an abundance of original features adding charm and character to each room.

Inside, the property is beautifully presented with several areas showing exposed stonework and wooden beams. The double-fronted nature of the house provides two well-sized reception rooms on either side of the hall. The cosy and welcoming lounge has an inglenook fireplace with an inset wood burner and dual aspect windows, while the second reception room has an inglenook fireplace and a charming window seat.

The kitchen/diner has a classic look that is in keeping with the house and features a range of cream units, granite worktops and a Rangemaster cooker, whilst there is plenty of room to accommodate a dining table and chairs. Completing the ground floor is a large shower room and a study with French doors that open to the garden.

On the first floor, there are three spacious double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has lovely square proportions, exposed wooden beams and an ensuite cloakroom that could be enlarged to create an ensuite shower room.

Outside, the west-facing rear garden is a delightful, tiered space with a wide patio and a raised seating area that captures the afternoon and evening sun. The rest of the garden is slightly elevated and features a large section of lawn, mature shrub borders and a pathway leading to a brick-built outbuilding that could be used for a variety of purposes.

At the front of the house, an enclosed garden contains an area of lawn, mature shrubbery and a driveway on the right-hand side that is suitable for off-road parking.
