Period property for sale in Chard: Five bedroom house

The five-bedroom cottage is surrounded by miles of unspoilt countryside and is within walking distance of the popular Haymaker Inn.

Inside, the property is presented in superb decorative order with attractive finishes and plenty of period features such as exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces that blend well with the more modern additions. The house has been lovingly maintained by the same owners for many years and its natural layout enables a degree of flexibility with living arrangements.

On the ground floor, there are three well-proportioned reception rooms, a generously sized utility, a handy shower room and a kitchen. The large sitting room has a lovely inglenook fireplace housing a wood-burning stove and has double doors to the garden, while the dining room has exposed ceiling beams and good square proportions. The second reception room has a triple aspect with a bay window and double doors to the garden. The kitchen has been re-fitted recently and has a modern contemporary look with sleek white shaker-style units, blue quartz-effect work surfaces and several integrated appliances.

Two staircases lead to the first floor, where there are five double bedrooms and a ‘Jack and Jill’ style family bathroom.

Outside, the mature garden has been carefully nurtured over the years and offers a good degree of privacy. The garden is mainly laid to lawn complemented by a paved terrace, flowering shrubs, and a lovely summerhouse, providing a perfect setting for outdoor relaxation and entertainment.

The property has a bricked-paved driveway providing plenty of parking space for several vehicles and gives access to a garage with an automatic door.
