Welkin Cottage is a late-Victorian, double-fronted family house set on the edge of Hardington Mandeville, enjoying elevated, panoramic views across rolling Somerset countryside. The well-presented interior balances period character—stone fireplace, sash-style windows and original chimneystacks—with practical family spaces, including a triple-aspect sitting room, study and a kitchen/breakfast room with central island and built-in ovens.
The house sits in thoughtfully landscaped gardens with terraces, a summer house (with power and Wi‑Fi), wildlife pond, greenhouse and a productive potager. Practical features include a garage, driveway for several cars and a 2,600-litre rainwater-harvesting system. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make working from home straightforward.
Accommodation comprises four bedrooms upstairs, the principal bedroom with under-eaves storage and views to fields. There is a modern shower room with walk-in shower and fitted storage; the layout offers scope to reconfigure or add a bath if desired. The property is freehold, has no flood risk and benefits from rural community amenities nearby.
Buyers should note this is an older, circa-1900 property, so ongoing maintenance and sympathetic upkeep will be required to preserve character features. Council tax band is not specified and there is a single family bathroom, which may be a consideration for larger households seeking multiple bathrooms.
