2 Bed Detached House, Kale Street, BA4

This 2 bedroom cottage was once a 17th Century Cider House but has now been beautifully converted. It is part of The Weavers House property, a Grade Two listed house in the charming village of Batcombe.  The Cider house sits in the corner of the large garden of The Weavers House (1/3 of an acre), where the owners live with their family and 2 dogs. 

Batcombe is small, friendly village in a beautiful valley in an area of outstanding natural beauty. A haven for dogwalkers and horse riders. There is a Grade One listed church, children's playground, an award winning pub (The Three Horseshoes) and a large Jubilee Hall with a lively calendar of events. The property is under 5 minutes walk from all these facilities, lying at the heart of the village, but still very peaceful and quiet.

The property is built into a hill and the main access is onto the first floor. There is an open plan kitchen with an oven, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge with small freezer, all of which are in great working condition.  The kitchen leads to more open plan living space with oak flooring throughout. from the kitchen there are tri-fold doors to a patio/garden where table and chairs can be set up summer. There are carpeted stairs down to 2 bedrooms and a bathroom with shower- all with underfloor heating (please note, there is no bath!). The Cider House is light and airy, with beautiful exposed oak beams and mullion windows- full of character!

Both bedrooms can fit a double bed. This property would suit a solo occupant or a couple best as it is not big enough for two sharers.

Beyond the patio area, residents of the property also have use of an area of lawn and off-road parking for one car.

There is a BT phone line, gas heating (propane bottles) and underfloor heating downstairs. Tenants to cover Council Tax (Band A, approx £130pcm) gas, electricity and phone (please note water rates are included in monthly rent).
