Spice Cottage enjoys a desirable, semi-rural setting within walking distance of Glastonbury Tor and the town centre amenities. The current owner has carried out considerable improvements and reconfiguration, resulting in a spacious and versatile home. The ground floor comprises a generous kitchen/dining room featuring a newly installed contemporary suite, a separate lounge, a well proportioned study with external access, conservatory, a utility room (formerly the kitchen) and a cloakroom with WC.
The first-floor accommodation lends itself well to self-contained living and benefits from upgraded bathroom suites and redecoration throughout. This level includes four bedrooms and a kitchenette, together with a family bathroom, an en-suite bathroom, and a “Jack and Jill” cloakroom WC. The main bedroom has been extended to incorporate en-suite facilities and to make the most of the stunning southerly views across the adjoining countryside.
The property is approached via a country lane and is surrounded by mature trees and gardens, offering a high degree of privacy. The extensive lawned gardens enjoy a picturesque backdrop with views towards Glastonbury Tor. A detached garage and a more recent addition of a studio—complete with power, lighting, a shower room, and a separate WC—further enhance the property’s versatility.

Registering to bid and Administration fee
Cooper and Tanner requires all bidders who wish to bid at our Auction to register beforehand, whether you are intending on bidding in the room, by proxy or online. As part of the registration process, you will be asked to provide card details in order that the Buyer’s Administration Fee of £1,395 inc VAT can be paid if you are successful. A week before the auction a hold will be placed on your account for this sum, which will then be released if you are unsuccessful. This fee will only be taken if you are the successful buyer. The fee is retained by Cooper and Tanner and does not form part of your deposit or completion settlement. Please also be aware that the Buyer’s Administration fee is payable per lot purchased and applicable to all pre-auction sales. If you are successful in purchasing more than one lot, we will contact you following the auction to take subsequent payments for additional lots bought. All checks required by current anti-money laundering legislation must be satisfactorily completed, as part of the registration process before prior approval to bid will be granted; this will include providing proof of funds.
Fees
Potential buyers should be aware that there may be additional fees payable to the Vendor’s solicitor on completion of the sale, details of which will be contained within the auction pack for each lot. At the launch of the property onto the market this information is not always available and so interested parties must refer to the auction pack and satisfy their enquiries.
Deposit
Successful bidders will be required to pay to the Cooper and Tanner Client Account the deposit of 10% of the purchase price within 24 hours of the auction. The account details will be provided to the successful bidder on conclusion of the auction. Once funds are cleared, they will be transferred on to the account of the solicitor acting for the seller. Please ensure that funds are in an account suitable to be able to make an Electronic Transfer from.
Further details relating this property will be contained within the Auction Legal Pack.
