Tucked away in the Old Alcombe area on the outskirts of Minehead, this stone-fronted mews cottage offers comfortable, low-cost living in a compact footprint. The ground floor flows from a country-style kitchen and dining area into a living room and a bright conservatory that opens onto a private courtyard — ideal for easy outdoor relaxing without a large garden to maintain.
Practical running-cost features include underfloor heating supplied by an air source heat pump and solar photovoltaic panels that assist hot water production. There is also a mains gas boiler and radiators, giving flexible heating options. Two double bedrooms — including a large first-floor main bedroom with Velux windows and an integrated whirlpool bath — make the home suitable for downsizers seeking generous bedroom space without the upkeep of a larger property.
Buyers should note the building is an older stone construction (pre-1900) with assumed uninsulated stone walls, so further insulation or upgrade work may be desirable to maximise thermal performance. The property is freehold and council tax band B (relatively cheap), but local crime levels are reported as high — prospective purchasers should check local safety information and consider this when viewing.
Overall this is a well-presented, energy-conscious cottage with a private courtyard and characterful interior. It will particularly suit buyers seeking a low-maintenance, centrally tucked mews home on the edge of town, and those happy to undertake small energy-efficiency improvements to optimise comfort and resale value.
