A beautifully presented stable conversion, offering a wonderful blend of modern comfort and traditional character.

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented stable conversion, offering a wonderful blend of modern comfort and traditional character. The property was converted in 2005 by a respected local builder and has been sympathetically designed using a thoughtful combination of contemporary building materials and retained traditional features, resulting in a home of both charm and practicality. The property is accessed via a modern entrance door which opens into a welcoming entrance hall, finished with tiled flooring throughout, creating a clean and elegant first impression. From the hallway, there is access to a ground-floor bedroom enjoying a dual aspect to both the front and rear, allowing for plenty of natural light. A second bedroom, currently ideal as a home office or guest room, also benefits from a dual aspect to the rear and side. The ground floor accommodation is further served by a well-appointed bathroom, complete with tiled flooring and a walk-in shower, along with a separate WC for added convenience. Also leading from the hallway is a generously proportioned kitchen/breakfast room, offering ample cupboard storage, integrated appliances, making it a practical and sociable space for everyday living. A doorway leads through to a separate utility room, which in turn provides direct access to the rear garden. The dining area, which forms part of the open-plan living arrangement, is of good size and creates a friendly and welcoming environment, ideal for entertaining. The living room is a separate space, offering a warm and cosy atmosphere, perfect for relaxing. Stairs rise to the first-floor landing, where a large window enjoys attractive views across open fields beyond. The landing provides access to an airing cupboard and two further well-proportioned bedrooms, both of which benefit from en-suite facilities, adding to the home’s versatility and comfort. The property further benefits from mains gas, underfloor heating, and double glazing throughout, ensuring efficiency and year-round comfort. To the front of the property is a detached garage, offering a generous and highly versatile space. The garage provides excellent flexibility and is well suited for a variety of uses, including secure parking, storage, a workshop, or hobby space, subject to individual requirements.

The property is situated in the popular market town of Wiveliscombe, nestled at the foot of the Brendon Hills in the heart of West Somerset. The town offers a good range of everyday amenities including independent shops, a post office, primary school, health centre, library, and a selection of cafés and public houses, all contributing to a strong sense of community. Whilst Wellington is about 6 miles away where the M5 may be jointed at J26 and where further scholastic facilities can be found. The County town is readily accessible about 8 miles away.

The property is approached via a shared driveway, flanked by mature lawned gardens to one side and open fields to the other. Wrought iron gates open into a generous tarmacadam forecourt, providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles. To the rear, a level garden offers a pleasant and practical outdoor area. To the front, steps lead up to a charming, enclosed orchard garden. This delightful space is well stocked with an array of mature shrubs and established trees, offering privacy, colour, and seasonal interest. The rear gardens are further enhanced by their natural backdrop of mature woodland and hedgerows, creating a peaceful and secluded setting. Throughout the grounds, the property enjoys superb rural views, making the most of its idyllic countryside position.
