NO FURTHER CHAIN! SUPERB COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS! ‘Golden Valley Farm Cottage’ is a very pretty, thatched, detached character cottage situated in a sublime location on a quiet country lane on the outskirts of this prestigious, sought-after village on the borders of Somerset and Dorset. The cottage occupies a generous, level plot and gardens extending to just under a quarter of an acre (0.21 acres approximately). The main garden boasts a sunny south-facing aspect and glorious countryside views. The cottage is enviably free from the restrictions of Grade II listing and offers superb scope for significant extension to create something far larger, subject to the necessary planning permission. There is also space and scope to add a garage or carport, subject to the necessary planning permission. As it stands, a private driveway provides off road parking for two cars. The cottage retains many character features including an inglenook fireplace. It is heated by an oil-fired radiator central heating system and benefits from uPVC double glazing. The accommodation comprises entrance reception hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, rear lobby and ground floor WC / Cloakroom. On the first floor there is a landing area, two generous double bedrooms, a third single bedroom / office and a first floor shower room / WC. There are country lane and countryside walks from the front door – ideal as you do not need to put the dogs or the children in the car! The village offers The Kings Arms, an award winning superb public house hotel offering great food and ambience. There is also The Village Store awarded a National Treasures Award by Good Housekeeping 2020, active village hall and community, attractive central village green, primary school and church. Horse riding, walking and sporting opportunities are plentiful. Access to the A303 trunk road to London and the south west is good. It is only a short drive to the centres of Sherborne, Bruton and Wincanton towns.
