Coleford Water, Lydeard St Lawrence

Exceptional detached period property set in 3.6 acres of of land with substantial detached workshop/potential annex, garage and outbuildings. Situated in an idyllic rural location between Exmoor and the Quantocks. Viewing essential!

Bosleys Cottage has been extended and improved by the current owners to create a comfortable and stylish family home whilst retaining many original character features. Planning was previously granted for a further extension to increase the size of the kitchen and create a boot room. The accommodation benefits from partial double glazing and oil fired central heating and comprises, on the ground floor - porch, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, inner hall, dining room and a large sitting room with woodburner. The first floor offers a spacious master bedroom with ensuite bathroom and dressing room and 2 further double bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom.

Externally a timber five bar gate gives access to the drive which provides ample off road parking and turning space and in turn leads to the detached garage. The beautifully landscaped gardens surround the house providing areas of lawn, patios and a covered, open fronted linhay perfect for alfresco dining. The whole area has been carefully planted with a wide variety of shrubs, trees and bedding plants, giving year round colour and interest. Beyond the formal garden lies a wonderful kitchen garden complete with raised beds, a fruit cage and a polytunnel. To the East of the house lies a further productive area housing 2 polytunnels and a greenhouse, currently used by the vendors for their cut flower business. Within this area also lies the workshop, complete with double glazing, power, water and a woodburner. We feel this has potential for a wide variety of uses, such as an annex, subject to planning. The rest of the land lies mainly to the South of the house and consists of a paddock, further flower growing area and an orchard. Within the grounds there is a field shelter and various other timber sheds/outbuildings. We believe the whole plot extends to 3.61 acres.

Agents note - there is a footpath running through the paddock and Eastern side of the plot. This was moved by the current owners so as not to run through the garden.
