We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
No onward chain.
Nestled in the heart of the picturesque hamstone village of Stoke-sub-Hamdon, beneath the iconic Ham Hill Country Park, this charming and deceptively spacious three-bedroom cottage perfectly combines period character with an enviable village lifestyle.
Originally constructed in the 1880s as a store for the local box factory before being thoughtfully converted into a home, the property offers generous accommodation arranged over three levels.
Brimming with original charm, including exposed beams, and filled with natural light throughout, it provides a warm and welcoming home that will appeal to first-time buyers, families, downsizers or those seeking a peaceful Somerset retreat with excellent local amenities and transport links.
The property is entered via the ground floor, where a practical entrance vestibule provides excellent storage and a useful space for coats, shoes and everyday essentials.
A half-flight of stairs leads to the main living accommodation, which forms the heart of the home.
Here you'll find a bright and spacious dining room with pleasant views over the village, a well-appointed fitted kitchen, a convenient cloakroom and an impressive dual-aspect sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove and doors opening onto a private courtyard garden Upstairs, the property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family shower room.
A boarded and insulated loft provides valuable additional space, ideal for storage, hobbies or those looking for a practical home office.
Outside, the enclosed courtyard garden offers a private, low-maintenance space that's perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
Beyond the property, Ham Hill Country Park's 400 acres of open countryside, woodland walks and far-reaching views are quite literally on your doorstep, providing endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
Offering the perfect balance of character, space and convenience, Box Cottage presents a rare opportunity to enjoy village living in one of South Somerset's most sought-after locations.
Agent's Comment Having lived and worked in Stoke-sub-Hamdon for over 14 years, and having personally handled the sale of Box Cottage around a decade ago, I can confidently say this is one of those homes that truly needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated.
The accommodation is far more spacious than first impressions suggest, offering a surprising amount of light, flexibility and character that simply can't be captured by photographs, a floorplan or even a 360° tour.
Whether you're actively searching for your next home, already in a position to move, or just beginning your property journey, we'd be delighted to show you around and help you discover everything that makes Box Cottage such a special place to call home.
