Property Description: Guide Price: £400,000 - £450,000. Glengarth is a charming double-fronted early Victorian home in the heart of sought-after Pilton, with beautifully proportioned rooms, plenty of original character and an enchanting garden that gives the house a wonderful sense of privacy. Thick stone walls and good insulation help keep the house naturally cool during the summer and warm through the winter, while pine internal doors, timber floors, sash windows and two woodburning stoves add to its period feel.
The handmade oak kitchen/breakfast room is a warm and sociable space, with a traditional Stoves range, dishwasher and fridge, alongside a larder cupboard and a separate cupboard housing the washing machine. There is ample room for a table, while French doors open directly out to a decked terrace beneath a pergola, where established climbing plants create a leafy canopy and welcome shade during the summer months. A small rear entrance area provides a practical place for boots and coats.
Steps rise to the first of the two reception rooms, currently arranged as a study but equally suited as a dining room. Original pitch-pine boarded flooring, a woodburning stove and built-in bookshelves give the room real character, while its double aspect makes it particularly light. The sitting room is similarly spacious and well proportioned, with original timber flooring, another woodburning stove and double-glazed sash windows.
The bedrooms are arranged over split levels, adding to the individual character of the house. The first half landing leads to the family bathroom, with a shower over the bath, and the smaller bedroom. South facing and double aspect, this is a bright room overlooking the garden, with an airing cupboard. A further flight of stairs leads to two double bedrooms, again both double aspect, with one having its own small en-suite shower room. All three bedrooms have good natural light and pleasant outlooks.
Outside: The garden is a particularly enchanting part of Glengarth. Beautifully established, well maintained and richly planted with mature trees, shrubs and flowers, it falls gently away from the house with a pathway winding through the planting to the bottom. Close to the kitchen, the pergola-covered deck feels wonderfully secluded amongst the greenery and creates an atmospheric spot for long summer lunches or an evening drink. Further into the garden are quieter areas amongst the mature planting, together with a greenhouse, composting area and a brick-built outbuilding divided into two useful stores.
Location: The house is situated in the heart of Pilton and within walking distance of all the village amenities. Pilton lies between the towns of Glastonbury, Wells and Shepton Mallet and is known for its green spaces and pretty stone cottages, as well as the world famous Glastonbury Festival (for which the lucky purchaser of this property will get free tickets). This thriving village has a shop, a fabulous pub with venue and garden, community run coffee shop, post office, playing fields (including skate park and tennis courts), church, chapel, playgroup, allotments, a community orchard and numerous clubs. The village is also home to The Pilton Stage and Village Hall which acts as a community venue for music, events & functions. Throughout the year the village hosts several well attended events including the village flower show and fête not to mention the Glastonbury Festival. The village is steeped in history with almost 70 listed buildings including the 11th Century Church and the restored 14th Century tithe barn which is now used for a variety of village events.
