Croscombe, just a few miles east of Wells, is known to date back to at least 706 and it developed in the 16th and 17th centuries with the boom in the wool trade. During this period many houses, cottages and inns were built and the church was reconstructed. Today Croscombe is a vibrant village with a primary school, village stores, a pub and a very active local community.
Fayre Way is a quiet lane, which is in an elevated sunny position on the north side of the village well away from the busy main road and enjoying excellent southerly views. Kismet stands alongside the lane with the house well back within its own garden.
Externally there is a neat front garden, a walled paved courtyard garden with a garage and parking space – accessed via a rear service lane.
The dormer bungalow is well presented and has the benefit of double-glazing and gas central heating. Internally the floors are mainly tiled or carpeted and the excellent views are noteworthy. The front door opens into a porch with a tiled floor and a large cloaks cupboard. The hall has a staircase, under stairs cupboard and a cloakroom with tiling, hand basin and wc. The sitting room has a large picture window with a wonderful view, a central fireplace and a door directly into the kitchen. Another door from the main hall opens into a living room which again links through into the kitchen and also has double doors into the conservatory which in turn has double doors to the rear courtyard and into a comfortable snug. The kitchen and breakfast room is a large room with a high pitched ceiling with velux roof lights and an excellent range of fitted units with appliances including a 5 ring gas hob, an extractor, a double oven and an integral dishwasher. There is also ample room for a table and chairs. Just beyond the kitchen is a utility room with a sink unit, cupboard and plumbing and space for a washing machine and dryer. At the front and again with access from the hall is a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and cupboards, a dressing room area and an en suite bathroom with tiled floor and walls, a hand basin in a vanity unit, a double ended bath and wc. Also off the hall is the second bedroom suite again with plenty of space, fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room with a hand basin in a vanity unit, shower cubicle, wc, floor and wall tiling.
