This beautifully presented three-bedroom, semi-detached red-brick cottage offers a peaceful retreat with breathtaking rural views. Formally, home to a well established artist and picture framer the cottage is rich in history.
The current owners have recently completed an extensive renovation, including a stylish new kitchen and bathroom, as well as a full redecoration in neutral tones throughout. The result is a charming, ready-to-move-in home.
A welcoming front door, approached via stone steps, opens into a spacious hallway, setting the tone for the property. The large, open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area spans the entire rear of the house, with three sets of french doors and dual aspect windows allowing the room to be flooded with natural light. The kitchen features integrated appliances, including oven and hob, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher, while the living space boasts a cosy wood-burning stove.
The ground floor also features a convenient cloakroom, utility area, and under-stairs storage, offering ample space for coats and shoes.
Upstairs, the generously sized principal bedroom benefits from a luxurious ensuite shower room and stunning countryside views. There is an additional double bedroom and a spacious single bedroom, both enjoying lovely rural vistas. A family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower completes the first floor.
French doors from the living space lead out onto a patio and garden with raised beds, providing greenery and color with minimal upkeep, perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining. Beyond the garden lies a picturesque babbling brook, flowing from Rickford pond, forming a natural boundary and adding a natural feature to the low-maintenance outdoor space. Outside, the property also benefits from shared graveled off-street parking with the neighboring property.
Set in the picturesque village of Rickford, nestled in the northern foothills of the Mendips – a true haven for nature lovers – this cottage provides a relaxing, countryside setting without feeling isolated.
