Description

THE OLD PARSONAGE, TEAPOT LANE, BALTONSBOROUGH, BA6 8QE

An absolutely charming four bedroom detached property with immense potential, set in a quiet rural position on the edge of Baltonsborough village. 

The property is not listed and enjoys characterful accommodation, requiring some modernisation, including an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, rear lobby, cloakroom, four bedrooms and a bathroom. 

There are magical gardens to the rear, ample parking, a garage and several useful outbuildings. 

Accommodation
The Old Parsonage is a beautiful Somerset long house built of Blue Lias stone with many characterful features inside and out including stone mullioned windows, flagstone floors, and original timber work including plank and muntin screening and ceiling beams. The property now requires a scheme of modernisation to realise it's full potential. As the property is not listed, there is great scope to further extend and improve to create an impressive family home in this quiet rural, edge of village location. 

A stone path leads past the front garden and up to the front door. Alongside the path there is a low stone wall, adorned by a beautiful, fragrant lavender bed full of bees and butterflies during the summer months. In front of the wall there is a lawned garden which is given privacy by a mature beech hedgerow.

Entering through the front door there is a welcoming entrance hall with cloakroom at the far end, the staircase rising to the first floor, and a reception room to either side. On the left, there is a large living room which could be reconfigured as a new larger kitchen if desired. There are many period details and features within the room including exposed stone work, a fireplace with bread oven, and parquet flooring. The living room enjoys a dual aspect with French doors leading to the garden at the rear. To the right of the hall, there is a dining and sitting room, which has an impressive cross-beam ceiling, plank and muntin screening, pretty window seats and another fireplace with inset wood burning stove. 

A door from the sitting and dining room connects to the kitchen, which has a range of wall and base units, an Esse range cooker and room for utilities. Leading off the kitchen, there is a rear lobby that leads to the garden. 

Upstairs there are four bedrooms, and a family bathroom. The master bedroom is of extremely generous proportions being over 21' long and nearly 18' wide. This gives good scope for an en-suite and further built in wardrobes if desired. There are plenty of windows in the bedroom looking out over the front and rear gardens to the fields beyond, and internally there are exposed beams, and painted timber floorboards. 

The guest bedroom is also a double room, and has a conveniently located wash-hand basin. There are two further bedrooms which connect onto one-another giving versatility for study or dressing room use. The family bathroom has a bath with overhead shower, basin, and w/c.

Outside
To the rear of the property there are delightful gardens with a lawn, plenty of sunny seating areas, and a productive vegetable patch which is fenced in and fully stock proof. There is a greenhouse which adjoins a most useful potting shed, and as an extension to the garage there is a workshop. In front of the garage there is ample room to park several vehicles.
