Summary - 3 CAPTON WILLITON TAUNTON TA4 4LX
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
Charming three-bedroom retreat with large gardens and open farmland views.
Grade II listed thatched cottage with strong period character
A quintessential Grade II listed thatched cottage set in the peaceful hamlet of Capton, moments from Williton and framed by open farmland and Quantock views. The house combines genuine period character — exposed stone, quarry-tiled floors, slate hearth and a traditional thatch profile — with practical country living including an oil-fired Rayburn and multi-fuel stove.
Internally the layout suits retirement living or a rural lifestyle move: three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a welcoming kitchen/dining room that overlooks the mature south-facing wraparound gardens. The sizable plot includes fruit trees, raised vegetable beds and uninterrupted countryside views — an appealing private setting for outdoor living and hobby growing.
Practical points to note: the cottage is Grade II listed (restrictions on alterations), has shared septic drainage, very slow broadband and a right of way/parking arrangement that means access to the modern single garage is over a neighbour’s drive. EPC is exempt due to listing. The property is being marketed with a Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease example price for over-60s (£308,250) though the full market price is £460,000; any Lifetime Lease saving depends on buyer age and circumstances.
Overall this is a character-rich, rural retirement property with excellent gardens and views, but buyers should be comfortable with listing constraints, modest modern utilities and the access/servicing arrangements that come with a hamlet location.
