- Separate stone outbuilding with hot tub and shower
- Off-street block-paved parking behind wooden gates

- Oil-fired heating; higher running costs than mains gas
- Double glazing installed before 2002; partial wall insulation assumed
- Small plot size; low-maintenance rather than large garden
Tucked away at the end of a quiet private drive, Courtyard Cottage offers spacious, characterful living in a small cluster of homes on the Somerset Levels. Originally a single-storey barn and enlarged with a two-storey extension in 2004, the house provides versatile accommodation across two floors — ground-floor bedrooms and living areas plus a first-floor living room that enjoys open countryside views and can serve as an additional bedroom. Owned solar panels supply electricity and produce a small income stream.
Outside, the property is designed for low maintenance: a private paved courtyard garden with raised borders, a semi-enclosed timber garden room, a raised pond and a separate stone outbuilding housing a hot tub and shower. Block-paved off-street parking behind double wooden gates adds practicality, while the compact plot keeps garden upkeep light.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired with boiler and radiators, glazing was installed before 2002 and cavity walls are assumed to have partial insulation. These features mean future buyers should factor in running costs and potential upgrades to improve energy efficiency. The house is well-suited to families or buyers seeking a flexible rural base close to Glastonbury and local village amenities.
In short, Courtyard Cottage will appeal to those who want a quietly located character home with flexible living spaces, outdoor privacy and income-producing solar panels — while accepting a smaller plot and some energy-efficiency updating may be required.
