37 Silver Street, South Petherton Offers Over £240,000

Set back from Silver Street with front footpath providing access to the front door. There is also gated access to the side which in turn provides access to the rear, enclosed garden.

Spacious sitting room with two front aspect, double glazed windows which capture an abundance of natural sunlight from their southerly exposure. To one corner are the stairs to the first floor which benefit from not being too steep and provide handy storage under. There is a further cupboard which houses the mains connections with room for further storage. To the party wall is a rather rarely coloured hamstone fireplace with inset 3KW multi-fuel burner. A door to the rear provides access to the kitchen and then the garden (decked area). The main kitchen is compact with plenty of storage and a nice outlook to the courtyard garden. There is then a further utility area with worktop, storage, and space with plumbing and electric for a washing machine. Finally, there is a WC on this floor which is a real benefit.

The stairs which are quite gentle in gradient for a cottage (benefitting from the internal overhaul in 2011) welcomes you to the landing with an Oak framed entrance and rear aspect dormer window which provides an impressive introduction in a naturally light space. The main bedroom will easily take a large bed and again benefits from a dormer window and alcove which has a fitted storage area. The second bedroom is another double and again benefits from large dormer window and has an alcove which is ideal for storage also. The bathroom is very spacious and features a full sized bath with shower over, rear aspect opaque windows, towel rail and very handily, 2 large storage areas (as well as that beautiful corner unit which looks like it might be 18th Century).

This is an enclosed area which is located off the rear kitchen entrance or there is gated entrance with side access and gated front leading to the roadside. Set within a walled enclosure this is a very private space and offers a sunny setting in the late afternoon and evenings. Access from the kitchen is up several steps to a timber laid platform which covers the entire area (the garden would otherwise be sloped in line with the surrounding existing properties). There is also a shed and this will be included with the property. The access to the front is a shared alleyway with one other neighbour and the owner of this property has a right of access.
