Yew Tree Cottage is a handsome Victorian detached home set in one-third of an acre in the sought-after village of North Curry. Tall ceilings, large sash-style windows and several fireplaces give the house strong period character while four reception rooms and a generous kitchen/breakfast room provide versatile family living. The landscaped gardens, terrace and mature borders create a private, attractive outdoor setting for entertaining and children to play.
Accommodation is arranged over two main floors and includes four double bedrooms (one with en-suite), a family bathroom and useful study/snug. Practical extras include a substantial detached double garage/workshop with power and lighting, a sweeping gated driveway and useful outbuildings. The property is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating with additional wood burners to sitting spaces.
Buyers should note some material facts: the house dates from the 1830s with solid brick walls (insulation not apparent), an EPC rating of D and Council Tax band G, so running costs may be higher than modern homes. Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area and mobile signal can be variable indoors. Any major alterations or insulation upgrades will require consent and careful detailing given the property's age and construction.
For families seeking character, space and a peaceful village lifestyle within easy reach of Taunton, this cottage offers an unusually large plot, flexible reception space and scope to update and improve energy performance. The location provides village amenities, an outstanding primary school and good road and rail links to regional centres.
