The sitting room is steeped in character from the get-go. With low ceilings and exposed wooden beams, the space immediately sets the tone, combining warmth with charm. Generous in proportion, the room draws the eye straight to the beautiful inglenook fireplace, complete with a wood-burning stove, creating a cosy and inviting focal point. This is a room made for relaxed evenings, full of atmosphere and authenticity. A door leads through to the kitchen/dining room, another fantastically designed space that effortlessly balances style with functionality. Fitted with an extensive range of base and drawer units, the kitchen features a double oven, electric hob, and integrated fridge, all carefully positioned to maximise flow. A charming bay window with window seat and the dual-aspect layout flood the room with natural light, making it an ideal space for both everyday family life and entertaining guests. From the sitting room, steps rise to the sun room, a wonderfully versatile space where you can sit, relax or enjoy a quiet moment with a book. French doors open directly onto the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months. A door from the sun room leads to the utility room, fitted with plumbing for laundry appliances, base units and a sink, keeping the main living spaces clutter-free. From here, access is provided to a neatly presented ground-floor shower room, ideal for guests or everyday convenience. Continuing through the property, the living room is another impressively proportioned space. Featuring a statement fireplace with an electric-effect cast-iron log burner, the room offers flexibility for a range of uses, whether as a formal living area or additional reception space. Doors lead to the front and rear, with double doors opening to a rear corridor providing access to the parking area, enhancing practicality without compromising character.
Stairs ascend from the sitting room to a spacious landing, complete with built-in storage cupboards and doors leading to all first-floor rooms. The principal bedroom is a standout feature, offering exceptional proportions and a dual-aspect layout. Deep-sill windows crafted from repurposed elm floorboards add a unique and thoughtful design detail. The suite is completed by a cleverly designed walk-in dressing room and a beautifully presented en-suite shower room, featuring a large walk-in shower, vanity unit with wash basin, WC and a heated chrome towel rail. Three further spacious double bedrooms provide versatile accommodation, one benefiting from built-in wardrobe and cupboard space. Exposed brickwork throughout the first floor enhances the character, while each room feels light, welcoming and thoughtfully finished. A contemporary family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, elegantly appointed with a claw-foot bath, large shower enclosure, vanity unit with storage and wash basin, WC and a heated chrome towel rail.

**Location**
The delightful village of Ashcott (population c.1186) sits part way along the Polden ridge, having wonderful rural views of the Somerset Levels and its various tributaries, all situated some 5 miles south-west of Glastonbury. At its heart is the historic Church of All Saints, an early 15th century building, forming part of a group of six churches known as the Polden Wheel. Ashcott is particularly well known locally for its superb village community and benefits from a highly regarded Primary School, sports playing fields, pub at the village centre and active village hall. The village also offers good and convenient access to other local towns/employment centres, such as Taunton (18 miles), Bridgwater 10 miles), Wells (11 miles) Bristol (31 miles), Bath (31 miles) and Exeter (55 miles). The M5 motorway J23 (9 miles) and the A303 Podimore Junction (12 miles). Bristol International Airport is 23 miles and Castle Cary railway station (London Paddington) 15miles.

**Identity Verification**
To ensure full compliance with current legal requirements, all buyers are required to verify their identity and risk status in line with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations before we can formally proceed with the sale. This process includes a series of checks covering identity verification, politically exposed person (PEP) screening, and AML risk assessment for each individual named as a purchaser. In addition, for best practice, we are required to obtain proof of funds and where necessary, to carry out checks on the source of funds being used for the purchase. These checks are mandatory and must be completed regardless of whether the purchase is mortgage-funded, cash, or part of a related transaction. A disbursement of £49 per individual (or £75 per director for limited company purchases) is payable to cover all aspects of this compliance process. This fee represents the full cost of conducting the required checks and verifications. You will receive a secure payment link and full instructions directly from our compliance partner, Guild365, who carry out these checks on our behalf.
