A Charming Stone Cottage in the Heart of Muchelney
Set within the highly regarded and picturesque village of Muchelney, this delightful two-bedroom semi-detached cottage, a former farm managers residence offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy village life in a home that blends traditional character with modern convenience.
Constructed from attractive local Lias stone, the property is both welcoming and full of timeless appeal, and has even previously featured on the BBC’s A Place in the Country.
The interior is well cared for and offers a simple lay out. A cosy sitting room provides a comfortable space to unwind, featuring a character fireplace which offers scope for reinstatement or the addition of a wood-burning stove. The modern kitchen has been recently updated and is practical yet stylish, opening into a bright garden room, an ideal spot for leisurely dining, reading, or simply enjoying views across the garden throughout the seasons.
Upstairs, the property offers two comfortable double bedrooms, both light and inviting, along with a beautiful bathroom fitted with a freestanding roll-top bath and a separate shower. The cottage is further enhanced by double glazing and central heating, ensuring comfort and ease of living all year round.
Outside, the beautifully maintained south-facing garden is a real joy, peaceful, mature and thoughtfully arranged, with areas for sitting, easy to maintain garden, and quiet relaxation in complete privacy.
A range of useful outbuildings sit discreetly within the garden, including a particularly charming shepherd’s hut which offers independent accommodation in the form of a double bedroom and en-suite. This additional facility is fully equipped with underfloor heating, power, kitchenette and shower facilities, this versatile space would suit visiting family and friends, a home office or hobby room, or a tranquil retreat away from the main house.
To the front of the property is off-road driveway parking, along with convenient side access to the garden. For those considering future adaptability, planning permission has previously been granted for the erection of a garage and single-storey extension (Planning Ref: 21/03768/HOU), offering scope to tailor the home to longer-term needs, subject to renewal.
With no history of flooding, a peaceful setting, and a welcoming village community, this lovely cottage represents an ideal home for those seeking a quieter lifestyle without compromise.
Early viewing is warmly recommended to appreciate the charm, comfort and potential this period Muchelney home has to offer.
