This charming period cottage occupies a quiet position down a side lane, within the heart of the desirable Quantock Hills village of Enmore, just five miles away from Bridgwater’s town centre while Taunton is just over eight miles away.

This period residence is one of a pair of cottages named Pear Tree. The current owners have occupied the property since 1995 and have maintained and enhanced this lovely home over the past 28 years. The property retains a wealth of charm and character with feature ceiling beams and an interesting L-shaped layout on the ground floor offers scope to provide flexible accommodation.

Inside, the entrance hallway makes a strong first impression with its fine turning staircase and wood-panelled coat cupboard. Just off the hall, the lounge is a nicely proportioned room with ceiling beams, a striking stone fireplace housing a wood burner and French doors that open to a large and bright conservatory. This pleasant light-filled living space is a welcome addition to the property and takes full advantage of the attractive rear garden.

The kitchen/breakfast room has a classic country cottage look with a good range of cream-coloured units, contrasting dark worksurfaces, ample space for appliances and ceiling beams. The ground floor is completed with a double-aspect dining room that would also work well as a fourth bedroom.

On the first floor, the gallery landing provides access to three double bedrooms and a stylish modern shower room.

Outside, the attractive rear garden has a lovely open outlook over the neighbouring fields. The enclosed garden features areas laid to lawn, a block paved pathway, herbaceous borders and a greenhouse.

An extensive driveway at the side of the house provides ample parking space for several vehicles and leads to the double garage. The garage has a loft area, along with an attached studio. This outbuilding offers scope for further uses or possible conversion to an annexe, subject to any necessary planning consents and building regulations.
