5 bedroom house

Pyne Cottage is located within the heart of Curry Mallet, a picturesque Somerset village offering a backdrop of the Blackdown Hills to the West, and panoramic views of the Somerset Levels to the North, further bathing itself in historical nods as a Magna Carta village. The property is now offered to the market boasting a plethora of opportunities for its new owner, to include the option for multi-generational living, a small commercial business and a plot sizeable enough to see further extension to the principle dwelling and/or could be used to develop an additional residence (all the above subject to the necessary planning consents).

• A handsome extended four/five-bedroom residence
• Offering a wealth of character and charm throughout
• Southerly facing gardens and plot extending to circa 0.75 acres
• Potential for further development opportunities (subject to the necessary planning consents)

A well fitted kitchen with appliances and sizeable double-glazed sun room with peaceful views into the gardens complete the accommodation.

The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by a mixture of mature hedging and shrubs, fencing and stone walls and separate off easily into a beautifully sun-drenched patio perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining friends and family, a kitchen garden with atrium, shrub lined pathways and views of the Blackdown Hills over undisturbed countryside.

The village has its own amenities, including public house, shop / post office, primary school, village hall and church.

The village is surrounded by open countryside with a network of country lanes, foot and bridle paths providing excellent scope for country walks and cycle rides.
In summary this country home offers the rare combination of attractive village edge location, local amenities, good access to road and rail networks and flexible accommodation arrangements.
