Wincanton, Somerset, BA9

This delightful property enjoys spacious living accommodation spread over three floors. A welcoming entrance hall has plenty of space to hang coats and leads through to a light and airy sitting room with double glazed French doors leading out to a sunny aspect garden with a paved patio ideal for al fresco dining. Off the hallway there is a cloakroom and stylish fitted kitchen with space for a table at the far end. The first floor benefits from a particularly large second bedroom, family bathroom and third bedroom. The second (top) floor features the master bedroom with a characterful sloping ceiling, built-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. We highly recommend an internal viewing of this exceptional family home.
