Gorgeous village house in Somerset for sale
This substantial five bedroom village house is perfect for a short commute to Bath or a second home in a picturesque location
Holly Tree House is a two-storey Georgian property which has been extended in recent years. The property still has a cottage feel in the main but also has a more modern design for the rear extension: ‘the thick stone walls of the main original house retain a strong period atmosphere which contrasts with the modern balcony and spiral staircase of the more recent additions,' says agent Knight Frank.
The downstairs accommodation comprises: large kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, family room and sitting room, bedroom two and a bathroom with a shower and cloakroom. Upstairs are three double bedrooms, bathroom and the master bedroom with its walk-in wardrobe and a magnificent south-facing balcony with delightful views over the surrounding countryside.

Outside the house the south-facing rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with assorted shrub-filled borders. There is also a paved patio area partially shaded by the overhanging balcony.
Holly Tree Lodge is located in the pretty village of Wellow which has a local shop, good primary school and a well regarded pub. There is good trekking nearby in open countryside. Bath is just over six miles and Bristol 18 miles from the house. The M4 is 15 miles making transport connections easy.
The guide price is £950,000. For further information please contact Knight Frank on 01225 325999 or visit www.knightfrank.co.uk.
