Slow broadband and limited on-street parking typical of village location
This end-of-terrace stone cottage sits in sought-after Montacute, with a good-sized rear garden that backs onto open countryside and offers views towards St Michael’s Hill. The ground floor has an open-plan lounge/diner and a modern galley kitchen with integrated appliances; one appliance (dishwasher) is currently not working. The property is freehold and compact at about 738 sq ft, suited to buyers seeking village life rather than large family living.
The house retains period character in its sandstone/limestone façade and fireplaces, while benefiting from mains gas central heating and double glazing (installation date unknown). There are three bedrooms arranged over two upper floors and a shower room; the layout is efficient but rooms are modest in size. Council tax is described as affordable and the location is close to village amenities and several well-rated primary and secondary schools.
Practical points to note: the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, the property is small overall and broadband speeds are slow. There is footpath access arrangement with neighbouring properties: Nos. 19 & 20 have a right of way across the front part of No. 21’s rear garden, and No. 21 has reciprocal foot access to a neighbour’s rear garden via the alleyway. Street parking is available but limited by the village setting.
This cottage will appeal to buyers who prioritise countryside views, village community and period charm, and who are comfortable with modest living space and some minor maintenance/upgrade work (insulation, checking appliances, improving connectivity).
