Summary - HOME FARM COTTAGE MAPERTON WINCANTON BA9 8EH
No onward chain — immediate completion possible
Large private garden with mature planting and sheltered outlook
Detached single garage and sizable private driveway parking
Previously granted first-floor extension permission (now lapsed)
Stone walls likely uninsulated; energy efficiency will require work
Oil-fired boiler and radiators; running costs higher than gas
EPC band E; cosmetic updating recommended in places
Located in quiet hamlet with excellent mobile and fast broadband
Set in a peaceful Somerset hamlet, this two-bedroom stone cottage offers a rare mix of character, privacy and a large garden. The house retains period features such as exposed beams, small-paned windows and a fireplace, and benefits from a detached garage, private driveway and fast broadband — practical pluses for modern rural living.
The property is offered chain free and sits on a generous plot with mature planting and sheltered outlooks. Interiors are liveable but compact; the layout includes a country-style kitchen/diner, dual-aspect sitting room and useful ground-floor lobby with WC and garage access. Planning consent to extend the first floor was previously granted but has now lapsed, so there is scope to pursue redesign or extension subject to renewed approvals.
Buyers should factor in running and upgrading costs: heating is by oil-fired boiler with radiators, granite external walls are likely uninsulated, and the EPC is E. The cottage will benefit from targeted cosmetic updating and potential insulation work to improve comfort and efficiency. Excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and very low local crime levels make this a practical rural home.
This property will suit buyers seeking cottage character and a private garden in an affluent countryside setting — particularly downsizers or those wanting a weekend retreat with development potential. Viewings recommended to appreciate the plot, garden and the house’s period charm in person.
