Huntworth, Bridgwater
£699,950

Screech Owl Cottage comprises a charming, detached house enjoying an attractive, semi-rural situation on Bridgwater’s southern outskirts, adjacent to the Screech Owl nature reserve. The property is offered to the market for the first time in over twenty years and is in good order throughout. During the period of our clients’ ownership, we understand, various improvement works have been completed, including a garage conversion and two storey extension. In addition, they have purchased an additional parcel of land, making the total up to approximately one-and-a-half acres.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and features, three reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and cloakroom, on the ground floor. On the first floor are four bedrooms and a bathroom. Heating is provided by an oil-fired system and all external windows and doors are fitted with double glazing. The property further benefits from owned photovoltaic panels, which as well as providing reduced electricity expenditure, provides an extra income stream.

The property sits centrally back within its plot and enjoys a south-westerly aspect and views. Access is via a shared, private lane that firstly crosses the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal and then the Bristol to Taunton railway line. A timber five bar gate provides access to the property’s private driveway and parking area. As previously mentioned, the plot extends to approximately one-and-a-half acres and is predominantly laid to lawn. Adjacent to the house is a large garage/workshop. There are various outbuildings – some requiring attention – as well as a glazed summerhouse, overlooking and leading out to a large pond. There is also a hot tub and over ground swimming pool, both of which are included in the sale.
