Kent Lane, Shepton Mallet - BA4 5XQ

Property Description: Guide Price: £200,000 to £215,000. Situated down a quiet lane in the thriving market town of Shepton Mallet, this fabulous stone built cottage is perfect for those looking for an investment property, 'a lock-up and leave' or first time buyer home. This charming property is bursting with character with its painted stone feature walls and wooden ledge doors, whilst the open plan living aspect provides a contemporary feel.

Through the front door of the property, there is a tiled entrance hall with space for hats and coats or storage. This leads directly into a good size open plan kitchen/living area with wooden floors, a painted stone feature wall and space for a dining table. The dual aspect windows towards the front of the property make the country style kitchen light and bright. There is a large Belfast sink, an oven and a gas hob. There is space for an under counter fridge and a washing machine. There is a downstairs cloakroom which can be found at the end of the entrance hall.

The painted stone wall in the living area extends up the wooden staircase to the first floor where there are two good sized south facing double bedrooms. The sash windows and neutrally decorated walls make both rooms feel light and airy and the exposed beam, panelling and wooden ledge doors give the upstairs a cottage feel. The principal bedroom also has a built-in cupboard. The upstairs shower room is stylishly tiled in neutral colours with laminate flooring.

Outside: The property is gated with a small pathway that leads to the front door and has space for a bench. There is no back garden with this property. There is street parking on the main road or in the estate the other side of the lane. Please note that the lane is a no through lane and there is not turning at the end. This makes it lovely quiet to live as there is no through traffic.
