Description

The Old Smithy is situated in the very heart of the sought after village of Holton, just a few minutes' drive from Wincanton which offers not only a great range of shops but also easy access to the A303.

Enter through the front door to the hallway and there are stairs to the first floor. The lovely sitting room has fitted and built in storage with a sash window to the front. There is a pretty period working fireplace.

The property itself has been greatly improved by the current owners both inside and out. Internal works include the opening of what was a small dark kitchen into a light and bright kitchen and dining room - great for entertaining! There are a range of 'Neptune' fitted wall and base units, gas hob powered by propane gas and a central island, recently laid limestone floor and a wood burner with painted surround. There are windows to the front and rear of this room. Through to the rear hall which has a stable door leading to the garden and with plenty of space for muddy boots and paws! Through to the utility room which is well fitted and has a water softener. The current owners created a rather useful cloak room to the end.

Upstairs there is a split landing leading to the bedrooms. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms - one ensuite, one single bedroom - currently used as a study and a large family bathroom which has wonderful views. On the second floor the loft has been converted and a wonderful room has been created with Velux windows to the rear.

Outside the owners have created an oasis of calm in their stunning garden. The gardens have been divided into spaces to make the most of the sun - from morning coffee to sundowners! There is a level lawned area with well stocked borders, raised beds and a wildlife pond. To the rear of the garden is a substantial garden room which is fully equipped for working from home. The garden is very private having benefitted from the building of a south facing wall allowing not only privacy but shelter.

To the front the garden has been hugely improved and is now not only colourful but low maintenance too. To the side is a substantial garage with a pitched roof, pedestrian door to the rear and plenty of shelving. In front there is off road parking for three cars.

Holton has a wonderful village pub, village hall and a church - just a hop skip and a jump from the property. Wincanton has 3 supermarkets, schools (junior and secondary), a racecourse and a popular garden centre. The Newt in Somerset, Hauser & Wirth gallery and Durslade Farm shop are all within a 15-minute drive. Castle Cary and Templecombe both have mainline stations to London and are also within a 15-minute drive. There are some wonderful Farm Shops in the area, Teals (off the A303) and Kimbers - just outside Wincanton.
