About this property

A charming and beautifully presented two-bedroom detached cottage, peacefully positioned in the picturesque village of Henton, conveniently located between Wells and Wedmore. This delightful home offers stylish accommodation throughout, complemented by gated off-road parking and two elevated sun terraces. Offered to the market with no onward chain.

The property is entered via a welcoming boot room, fitted with a useful built-in storage cupboard and providing access to a downstairs WC. An inner door leads through to the dual-aspect kitchen, recently refitted with an attractive range of contemporary wall and base units and providing space for freestanding appliances.

The generous dual-aspect sitting/dining room enjoys excellent natural light and features an impressive exposed stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove, creating a warm focal point to the room. This space also incorporates the staircase to the first floor and includes two front-facing windows along with a door giving direct access to the parking area.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and French doors opening onto a raised patio terrace—an ideal spot for morning coffee. The second bedroom features lovely exposed beams. Completing the accommodation is a well-appointed bathroom, which includes a separate shower cubicle.

Outside

The cottage is approached through double wooden gates, opening onto a gravelled area providing private off-road parking for two vehicles—an area that could alternatively be used to extend the garden if preferred. To the side of the property are two elevated terraces: one laid to decking and the other a spacious paved area with a timber shed. Both terraces enjoy excellent sunlight throughout the day and offer attractive settings for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing.

LOCATION

Wells also benefits from a busy, twice-weekly produce market in the Market Square. The popular village of Henton is conveniently situated between the Cathedral City of Wells and the village of Wedmore.
