Charlton Road, Shepton Mallet - BA4 5PB

Property Description: This immaculate Victorian property comes to the market in excellent condition. Built in 1901 in the traditional Blue Lias stone associated with the area, you step through the beautiful period door into a bright entrance hall and are greeted by a wonderful original tessellated Victorian tiled floor. Ideally situated, it is within walking distance of the town centre, Whitstone School and the Leisure Centre. To the front of the property is the living room with all the features you would expect in a property of its age including fabulous sash windows, high ceilings, a fireplace complete with a modern wood burner and wooden floors. As you move to the rear of the property you get a sense of a more open plan living style. The snug, which is also home to a wood burner, provides an extra sitting space to curl up with a cup of tea and a book. This flows through to the dining room overlooking the rear garden, complete with Velux roof windows, to provide ample additional light. Off the dining room is the kitchen that is fitted with contemporary light grey units, a pitched white wooden clad ceiling and a useful utility come pantry room which has an original terracotta floor and fireplace. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a large family bathroom with a fresh white suite. There is a further floor which houses the fourth bedroom with views of the Mendips in the distance and an additional separate shower room as well as an extra room currently used as a study. A great property with an abundance of original features, which has been sympathetically renovated not to spoil any of its past.

Outside: The property is situated in the centre of the south plot, with a small front and a rear garden with a view beyond. Both areas of garden are well established, with original stone walls and mainly laid to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and borders. There is also a detached garage to the rear approached from a raised decking area with an array of pots which when in full summer bloom would provide a fantastic setting for a glass of wine and an opportunity for alfresco dining.
