The Property
The property has undergone a number of recent improvements by the current owners, including a new boiler, pipe work and radiators, re-wiring with additional power sockets and LED lighting and the replacement of the majority of the windows and front door. However, still allows further scope for those wanting to make the most of the versatile layout and good proportions.
The front door leads you into a particularly spacious hallway, with room for a comfy seat, settee or other furniture including space under the stairs. To one side a useful downstairs shower room with WC and dual fuel towel rail gives you a handy set of ground floor facilities. The sitting room is located at the front of the property making the most of the afternoon and evening sunshine. The current vendors have added a new wood-burning stove during their ownership with slate hearth, and large double doors open through to a particularly spacious dining room which can double as a family room with space for extra furniture or room to work from home perhaps. Beyond, doors open to a separate garden room with polycarbonate roof and a lovely outlook over the attractive rear garden.
The kitchen also looks out on to the pretty rear garden and has been recently refitted with a lovely range of soft blue units including floor and wall mounted storage cupboards and drawers, with work surfaces over incorporating space for both washing machine and dishwasher, and integrated fridge. The current Aga can be included in the sale but if not, would leave space and point for a gas range cooker if you prefer. Recessed spotlights give a sleek modern looking to the lighting. The boiler is discreetly tucked away to one corner. There is a handy porch accessed from the kitchen, ideal for extra undercover storage of coats etc and with a stable door leading to the garden. There's also room for a freestanding freezer and tumble dryer.
First Floor
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, all with exposed original beams. The master bedroom is a lovely bright dual aspect room with a large oak wardrobe, and there is a second double room overlooking the rear. The two further bedrooms are great for children, visitors or as hobby rooms / dressing rooms. There may also be scope to create an en suite shower room to the master bedroom subject to the necessary alterations and regulations. The current family bathroom is a light room with a white suite with dual-fuel towel radiator to one side.
Outside
To the front are well maintained lawn areas, with low level box hedging and topiary and a path leading to the front door.
To the rear is an attractive well maintained courtyard garden, with newly created timber raised beds, paving and pebble areas for ease of maintenance. A recently replaced timber gate leads to the shared access at the rear, which in turn provides access to the double garage with remote controlled roller shutter door and 2 x 13 amp sockets are avalaible for charging a vehicle but this could be upgraded if needed.
Situation
Merriott village has an excellent range of local services including a garage, a petrol station, two general stores, a post office, pub, a pharmacy (which will collect prescriptions and deliver medicines), and a pottery. There is a church, a chapel, and a village hall, tithe barn and social club which are all host to a wide range of activities. There is also a recreation ground with junior and senior play areas, cricket and football pitches, tennis courts and a bowling green, separate squash club and court. The village also has its own pre-school and First school. Merriott has excellent road links to both the A303 and A30, both of which lie within a short drive. Crewkerne is a traditional market town with a range of shops including a Waitrose Supermarket who deliver locally, and a main line railway station for the London, Waterloo to Exeter line.
