Step into history with this semi-detached Georgian cottage, a timeless gem dating back to 1820, set on the edge of the village of Norton St Philip. The double-fronted entrance welcomes one into two cosy sitting rooms flanking the entrance hall. Both rooms lead into a full-width kitchen/diner forming the heart of the home. On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, with a further bedroom featuring its own en suite – a private and tranquil space – on the second floor.
A lower ground floor level spans the full width and half depth of the house, offering a side entrance and plenty of natural light. Currently serving as a laundry/utility room, a boot room, and substantial storage area, it also holds great potential for a home office. ‘Brooklyn Cottage is set back from the road with high walls and hedges and is not overlooked, making it wonderfully private,’ explain the owners, who add, ‘there are glorious rural views from both the front and back.’ Surrounding the property is a wraparound walled garden, thoughtfully divided into three distinctive areas. Together, they boast mature trees, shrubs, vibrant climbing roses, lawns, and a Mediterranean-style area. Patio areas to the rear and side of the house offer the perfect place for al fresco dining, while raised beds and fruit trees provide homegrown produce. ‘The gardens contain a large outbuilding with Velux windows and a wood burner, as well as a good-sized greenhouse and bike store.’ A magnificent cherry tree in the front garden blooms beautifully in the spring.’ Parking for up to four cars is provided by a carport and a block-paved parking area.
‘This property is rather ‘grand’ for a cottage. We were initially blown away by the attractive Bath stone exterior, extent of the garden, and sense of space and light provided by high ceilings and good-sized windows.’
‘The layout is very uncomplicated and there is a natural flow from one room to another. However, sitting rooms can be closed off to create cosy areas with open fires.’
‘The kitchen/diner has space for a large table, so we’ve been able to enjoy large family meals. There’s also plenty of patio space to host big summer feasts.’
‘Norton St Philip has a first school, a Co-op with a post office, two pubs – one of great historical interest – plenty of green space and a great village hall offering lots of activities. It’s also rather handily on a bus route between Bath and Frome.’
