Ashington, Somerset, BA22

‘Rose Cottage’ is a very pretty, double-fronted, detached, natural stone cottage enjoying extensive countryside views at the rear. The property is situated in a sublime, semi-rural location on the edge of the popular Somerset village of Ashington, a short drive to Sherborne town and the mainline railway station to London Waterloo. This amazing cottage stands in an exquisite, level plot and gardens extending to just under two thirds of an acre (0.62 acres approximately) with the rear garden enjoying sunny easterly and southerly aspects plus extensive views. There is private, gated driveway parking for eight cars or more at the side plus EV charging point. The cottage is enviably free from the restrictions of Grade II listing and offers tremendous potential for significant extension or the addition of large carport or garage, subject to the necessary planning permission. It retains many character features including exposed beams, natural stone fireplaces and much more. The well-arranged accommodation is beautifully presented and enjoys an excellent flow of natural light from dual aspects. It comprises entrance porch, sitting room, dining room / reception room two, kitchen / breakfast room, utility room, ground floor WC / cloakroom and inner hall. On the first floor there is landing area, four double bedrooms and a recently replaced family bathroom. It is heated via a oil-fired radiator central heating system and also benefits from uPVC double glazing. It is situated near the heart of this pretty, popular Somerset village. There are superb countryside walks from the front door – ideal as you do not need to put the children of the dogs in the car! It is a very short walk to nearby countryside and to the pretty village centre and a short drive to nearby country pubs.
