Welkin Cottage, Hardington Mandeville, Somerset, BA22 9PE

An extended and spacious four bedroom detached cottage with stunning views across open countryside. Garage and off road parking for multiple vehicles.

Welkin Cottage is a wonderfully situated detached cottage set within generous gardens, enjoying outstanding countryside views from most of its rooms.

Over the years the property has been extended twice on the ground floor which gives an exceptional footprint with the accommodation benefiting from oil-fired central heating, double glazing, picture rails, and a wonderful sense of light and space, enhanced by its picturesque surroundings.

A pillared storm porch with a part-glazed door leads into the reception hall, featuring tiled flooring and a staircase rising to the first floor.

Both the study and dining rooms sit to the front of the property with the latter open plan to the appealing kitchen.

The dining room also features the former fireplace that has now been shelved for further book/ornament display.

The kitchen is well-appointed with an extensive range of solid worktops and contemporary grey units, alongside integrated appliances including a four-ring induction hob, stainless steel double oven, and cooker hood.

There are ample base and wall units, as well as a central island, all designed to maximise practicality while enjoying the incredible countryside views.

From the kitchen, a cloakroom with a white suite is accessed, along with a sunroom featuring timber-effect flooring and again, the incredible rural views.

A separate utility/boot houses the oil boiler and has space for the normal domestic white goods, a perfect space for dog baskets.

A particular highlight of the home is the fantastic triple-aspect sitting room, flooded with natural light and offering panoramic views over the garden and surrounding countryside, with French doors opening onto the rear patio.

A fireplace with wood burner completes the space, making it both cosy and scenic throughout the year.

Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to four bedrooms-two doubles and two singles-many of which benefit from far-reaching rural views, reinforcing the glorious setting.

A shower room with a double shower cubicle and white suite serves this floor. Services & outgoings We understand that mains electric, water and drainage are connected to the property.
