Summary - WILLOW COTTAGE EAST LAMBROOK SOUTH PETHERTON TA13 5HF
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Two‑bed character home with gated parking and sizeable garden plot.
Grade II listed 18th‑century thatch cottage with period features
Willow Cottage is an 18th‑century Grade II thatch cottage offered with no onward chain and an attractive asking price for its age and setting. Set in a sheltered village plot with mature trees, the house provides private gated parking and scope to create a bespoke garden. Character features include exposed beams and a Hamstone fireplace that give immediate period appeal.
The house is compact — approximately 737 sq ft over multiple levels — and currently needs renovation throughout. Rooms are cosy with low ceilings in places; the property has been maintained with an emphasis on heritage rather than modern upgrades. The thatched roof and listed status mean any alterations or major repairs will require specialist contractors and listed‑building consent.
For a buyer seeking a peaceful country retreat or a downsizer wanting a characterful home, this cottage offers genuine potential. Expect to budget for restoration, thatch maintenance and sympathetic improvements rather than a simple cosmetic refresh. Practical benefits include private parking, a decent plot, low local crime and no flood risk.
Location suits village life: local amenities include a pub and leisure attractions, with good primary schools nearby and affordable council tax. Broadband and mobile signal are average — adequate for everyday use but not high‑speed rural connectivity. This is a chance to own a historic thatched cottage and create a carefully considered, characterful home.
