Description

With spectacular views to the Mendips, this fabulous four-bedroom home with one bedroom annexe, is finished to high standard throughout, with open-plan living areas and well-proportioned rooms, with outbuildings, horseshoe driveway and extensive level gardens front and back.

A sociable, warm and welcoming home, possibly dating back to the 1930s, which the current owners have lovingly renovated and extended to create the fabulous living space it is today. The hub of the home is the stunning, open-plan, vaulted kitchen with tri-fold doors opening out onto a terrace, extending the entertaining and relaxing space into the gardens. The panoramic views from the kitchen and terrace are extraordinary, especially on a summer’s day with the doors open and the countryside bathed in sunlight. The kitchen, with its underfloor heating, is fitted with a range of bespoke, solid wood, cabinetry with contrasting granite worktops and a central island topped with a warm oak surface. Appliances include a Rangemaster cooker with gas hob, integrated microwave, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer. There is further storage and space for other appliances in the utility. The spacious sitting room, decorated in a tranquil colour palette with contrasting feature wall and fireplace, provide a cosier space. For more formal dining occasions, the dining room offers plenty of space for a large table, chairs and other furniture. A fireplace features a log burning stove.

The four double bedrooms are upstairs, each with their own charm and character. The principal suite has an ensuite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe. The three other bedrooms share an elegant family bathroom which features a roll top bath, walk-in shower, wash-hand basin and WC.

Outside, a horseshoe driveway sweeps past the front of the house to a double carport and garage. Steps up the side of the garage lead to an open-plan, one-bedroom annexe, finished in an attractive white and wood contemporary style with vaulted ceiling. There is a stylish shower room with wash-hand basin and WC.

The house is set away from the road, beyond its leafy, green front garden, hidden away behind mature hedging and trees. Gated access on both sides of the property lead into the extensive, level rear gardens via a five-bar gate on one side and through a secluded courtyard on the other. Stunning gardens stretch out from the back of the house with uninterrupted countryside views. The garden is full of surprises and is thoughtfully designed with seating and entertaining areas to make the most of the views and the sunshine. A covered terrace houses a pizza oven and has space for tables and chairs. Amongst the many other treats in this garden is a decked area overlooking a wildlife pond, a greenhouse and kitchen garden, and a workshop with a tiled, shady veranda over a paved terrace.
