Occupying a superb position just off Market Place and adjacent to Somertons West Street Church, Church Cottage is a GII home in need of general modernisation, hosting 3 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms and ample off-road parking.
The cottage is accessed from the front through a 9-pane timber door leading into the entrance hallway, laid to carpet and providing access to the two reception rooms, a rear door to the garden and stairs to the first floor with storage space underneath. The sitting room lies to the front of the house, also carpeted and enjoying a bay window to the front, in addition to a tiled fireplace and hearth (untested). A door leads through into a second reception room, decorated in a similar manner with a matching fireplace (untested), airing cupboard housing the hot water tank and window to the back garden. Behind this room is the kitchen, featuring a range of wall and base units, stainless steel sink with drainer and window over, space and plumbing for an appliance and space for an electric oven/hob. A door at the back leads into the half-tiled wet room, featuring shower unit, low-level WC and pedestal basin.
