Home Farm Lane, Rimpton, Yeovil, Somerset, BA22

THE AGENT SAYS... Stable Cottage is a charming one bedroom property that would be an excellent investment for first time buyers looking to add value without too much work. The property is presented in liveable order and has been partially renovated, with a smart kitchen and shower room. Most of the work required is purely decorative but there is also superb potential to create a second bedroom. The current spacious bedroom spans the width of the property and could be easily divided down the centre of the roof to create two good-size bedrooms. Skylights either side of the roof, well-placed electrics, and excellent potential for fitted storage (some existing) make this a relatively simple proposition and a great way to add value to this lovely property. THE PROPERTY The main entrance opens into a small hall with a cloakroom to the right. A couple of steps lead up to the kitchen, which is a long, slim room, centred around an Everhot range cooker, with fitted units that include an integrated dishwasher and fridge-freezer. The walls are unfinished and provide the new owner with a great opportunity to add their stamp with paint and accessories. The kitchen leads through into the generous sitting/dining room, which is almost square and has a wood burning stove as an attractive focal point. Three deep windows on two sides allow in plenty of light. A spiral staircase rises from this room to the first floor. On the first floor is the recently renovated shower room which has a decadent walk-in shower, WC, and fitted vanity unit with wash basin. The eaves provide handy storage for linens and towels, with a further built-in cupboard on the landing. The bedroom is a great size and shape and the exposed roof timbers are wonderfully characterful. Two large skylights and a window illuminate the space beautifully and there is useful storage built into the gable end. The shape of the room and position of the skylights, electrics and storage space, offer great potential to split this room into two bedrooms, if desired. OUTSIDE At the front of the property is a gravelled garden and parking area with a large planted border alongside the street. The adjoining cottage has a vehicular and pedestrian ROW across this driveway. Opposite the cottage, alongside the driveway, is a small stone outbuilding and log store. The outbuilding has a window and may have potential to become a home office space/ workshop, if needed. SERVICES Mains water, drainage and electricity. Gas-fired central heating.
