THIS substantial, four-bedroom dwelling occupies an idyllic rural spot in the small hamlet of Saltmoor on the edge of the Somerset Levels, just under a mile from Burrowbridge, while Bridgwater is around eight miles away.
The property sits on a plot of around 1.4 acres in a picturesque rural location and its grounds include a wide range of quality outbuildings including an office, a double carport and a summerhouse with a covered barbeque area. In addition, there is a swimming pool, wildlife ponds, vegetable plots and a paddock.
Inside, this attractive characterful home, named Myrtle Tree Cottage, is finished to a high standard throughout and has a good balance between period features and modern fixtures.
There are two large reception rooms with oak flooring and stone fireplaces with log-burning stoves, and both have doors opening to the garden. The beautifully appointed kitchen is fitted with a range of attractive units, a combination of solid wood and granite tops and several integrated appliances. This flows into a light and airy sunroom which acts well as an informal dining space. The ground floor is completed with a large double bedroom that has an ensuite bathroom and fitted wardrobes.
On the first floor, a gallery landing leads to three spacious double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has good proportions, fitted storage, a washroom and a separate shower room.
Outside, the well-established grounds offer a variety of interests and have been divided into separate areas interspersed by a wealth of mature trees and shrubs. There are expansive lawns, a plunge pool, a secluded summerhouse with an adjacent seating area, several vegetable plots, greenhouses, a large pond and a small copse that sits at the heart of the grounds. An enclosed paddock can be found at the back of the plot and outbuildings include a carport and a purpose-built office/cabin that makes working from home an easy option.
There is ample parking space for multiple vehicles on the driveway and a detached double garage with a utility room and an overhead studio.
