On an exceptionally beautiful 1.4 acre plot, with far-reaching countryside views to the Mendips, this fabulous, five-bedroom home, with numerous outbuildings and stables, offers versatile accommodation for home working or multigenerational living.
The property gives little away from the front as to the rural haven at the back. On a sunny day, its white-washed walls against the backdrop of the blue sky and leafy green vista is enough to put anyone in the holiday spirit. French doors across the rear of the property extend the sociable living space onto the garden terraces and make the most of the stunning panoramic views. Inside, the house is spacious, with an open-plan modern layout whilst maintaining the warm and welcoming feel of a country cottage. The hub of this lovely home is the kitchen/dining room spanning the depth of the house with French doors to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a sleek range of wall and base units topped with complementary work surfaces, including a central island. There is a contrasting Aga style cooker, a built-in electric oven, induction hob and dishwasher. There is plenty of extra storage in the adjoining pantry and space for other appliances in the utility. The dining area provides ample space for a large farmhouse dining table and other furniture. The sitting room also benefits from two sets of French doors which open out onto the terrace and look out across the gardens, paddock and countryside beyond. With warm wooden flooring and a feature fireplace with log burning stove, this room is a cosy retreat on colder days. The ground floor also comprises of a studio, WC and garage to one side of the house and a second reception room/snug and a utility room to the other.
The five bedrooms are upstairs, and each have their own unique character and charm. The principal bedroom is spacious and light, with fabulous views, a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom. The other four bedrooms share a family bathroom.
Outside, an extensive driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, sweeps in at the side of the property, accessing the garage which adjoins the house, and it runs down to the outbuildings, stable block and paddock. The total plot extends to just over 1.4acres. Paved terracing stretches across the back of the house providing ample space for relaxing and entertaining. Between the house and the paddock, the landscaped garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature flower beds, shrubs and trees providing colour and texture. The paddock and stables would be ideal for anyone wishing to keep a pony, or perhaps for someone wanting to develop a kitchen garden and keep other livestock, or maybe for an active family who enjoy the outdoors.
