Set within half an acre of mature, landscaped gardens, Ashmoor Cottage is a substantial detached character house about three miles from Wells. The property combines period features — exposed stonework and beams — with practical updates including double glazing and solar panels, creating an attractive family home with generous living space. The heart of the house is a large open-plan kitchen and breakfast room that opens to terraces and lawned gardens; separate sitting, dining and garden rooms give flexible living for work, entertaining and family life.
Four first-floor bedrooms (one with en suite) and a second bathroom suit a growing family or regular visitors. Outside, the plot includes a garage with boarded loft, multiple store sheds, an orchard and a secluded summerhouse — useful for hobbies or home office use. Immediate access to public footpaths and quiet country lanes makes this a good choice for countryside walkers and those seeking privacy without being isolated.
Practical points to note: heating is by oil-fired boiler and drainage is private, which may mean higher running and maintenance costs than mains services. The EPC is Band E (51), reflecting modest thermal performance despite solar panels. Council Tax is in a higher band (G). Mobile signal is average; broadband is fast. Overall, this is a large, character-filled home on a very generous plot that will suit buyers looking for space, privacy and scope to personalise.
