Summary - WOODLEA NEWPORT WRANTAGE TAUNTON TA3 6DJ
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Charming 3-bed stone cottage on 1.5 acres with planning permission to extend.
Private gardens and paddock approximately 1.5 acres
Woodlea is a charming, characterful stone cottage set in about 1.5 acres of private gardens and paddock, with open countryside views and a peaceful hamlet location. The house blends original period features — exposed beams, inglenook-style fireplace with a glowing grate and lead-paned windows — with careful recent upgrades including a new boiler, upgraded electrics and replaced rear windows.
The accommodation is practical for family living: three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a study, conservatory/garden room, refitted kitchen with granite worktops and a modern shower room plus a refitted first-floor bathroom. A detached garage, generous parking and direct access to the paddock add day-to-day convenience and scope for hobbies such as small-scale equestrian or amenity gardening.
Planning permission has been granted for a single-storey extension linking the garage to the house (Somerset Council application no: 24/17/0023), offering clear potential to increase living space without major planning uncertainty. The large plot and existing layout also suit buyers looking to adapt or extend further, subject to consents.
Important practical points: the property sits in a rural hamlet with very slow broadband and average mobile signal, which may affect remote working. Council Tax is in a higher band (Band E). While the house has been newly renovated in parts, it retains period character rather than contemporary open-plan living; buyers seeking fully modernised, high-speed connectivity should note these limitations.
