2 bed flat for sale

Mount Pleasant, Crewkerne TA18

With its elegant proportions including beautifully high ceilings and stunning views, this ground floor apartment offers spacious and practical living accommodation.

The Property

A sizeable and impressive ground floor apartment in a magnificent and imposing Grade II listed building towards the edge of this pretty Georgian town. Offering the best of both worlds, you have open countryside within easy reach including the Bincombe Nature Reserve, whilst the town centre facilities including Waitrose and the Aquacentre Swimming Pool and Gym complex lie approximately half a mile away.

Accommodation

The apartment is accessed from an impressive communal entrance hall, just a short flight of stone steps up from the parking area at the front of the building. Inside, it offers convenient single-level living, beginning with a spacious entrance hall featuring tongue-and-groove panelling and wood-effect flooring that adds a touch of period character. An inner lobby provides a useful built-in cupboard and leads through to a generously sized bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite. This includes a p-shaped bath with a mains shower over, a vanity wash basin with storage, and a WC, all complemented by stylish neutral tiling.

The principal bedroom enjoys a stunning outlook through original stone mullion windows, offering panoramic views across the town and towards the rolling hills of Somerset and Dorset. A full wall of fitted wardrobes provides ample storage. The second bedroom, located next door, is also well-proportioned with impressive ceiling heights and attractive views to the front.

The main reception room is particularly spacious for an apartment, easily accommodating both lounge and dining areas with room for even the largest of dining suites, sofas and comfy chairs. A striking bay window enhances the sense of light and space, while a feature fireplace creates a focal point (please note, the open fire is not currently in use).

Next to the kitchen is a practical separate utility room-formerly a downstairs WC-now equipped with plumbing, making it ideal for additional storage and laundry use. The kitchen itself is generously sized, with a partly vaulted ceiling that adds to the feeling of openness, and a mullion window bringing in natural light from the rear. It offers fitted units with space and plumbing for a dishwasher, washing machine, and under-counter fridge, along with an integrated electric hob and oven. The adjoining breakfast area can accommodate a small table, serve as a home office, or provide extra storage space, and also houses the wall-mounted gas boiler for central heating.

Outside

There are attractive communal gardens surrounding De Combe House which are maintained as part of the service charge, but the vendors inform us that keen gardeners are always welcome to tend areas closest to their apartment themselves if they so wish. There are two allocated parking spaces, one to the front and one in the rear parking area.
