Rose Cottage is a well-presented four-bedroom detached period home in Chilcompton, set on a large private plot with extensive rural views. The house combines traditional features—Bath stone fireplace, cottage-style kitchen and oak bi-fold doors—with practical outbuildings: a garage/outbuilding and a separate garden studio ideal for home working. Gated driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles.
Accommodation is flexible: two double bedrooms on the lower ground floor (suitable as bedrooms, studies or playrooms), a light L-shaped reception room and two further double bedrooms on the upper floor. The kitchen is fitted with solid wood surfaces, Belfast sink and integrated dishwasher; the bathroom has a roll-top bath. EPC rating D.
Notable positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, and very low local crime in a very affluent, rural setting. The converted garage currently functions as a commercial kitchen and may need adaptation for other uses; the property’s stone walls date from 1900–1929 and are assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should expect potential updating to improve energy efficiency. Council tax banding is expensive.
This home will suit families seeking space, rural tranquillity and a work-from-home setup, or buyers wanting a character cottage with garden studio and further scope to personalise. Viewings recommended to appreciate the views and flexible layout.
