Description

Property Description: Guide Price: £1,250,000 to £1,400,000. This outstanding, architect designed five bedroom house stands in an elevated position with far reaching views, in what is regarded as one of the most desirable addresses in Wells. This award winning property has just under 3000 square feet of versatile accommodation with high-quality finishes and attention to detail throughout. 

You enter the house into a striking double height glazed Atrium with a stunning fibre optic lighting installation, designed by renowned British artist Bruce Munro, creating a wonderful focal point as you enter the property. 

The Atrium opens into the striking living, dining and kitchen area which has been creatively designed to make the most of the space, layout and beautiful light in this room. With separate casual seating areas, a large breakfast bar for entertaining and space for at least a twelve seat dining table, this versatile space is a host's dream. Bi-fold doors span the length of the dining area and open onto the terrace creating a seamless indoor/outdoor flow, ideal for summer parties.

This a kitchen fit for a chef. It has everything you could need with a Franke boiling water tap and Neff integrated appliances including two double eye-level ovens, an eye-level steam oven, eye-level microwave, warming drawers, induction hob, under-counter fridge, under-counter fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Leathered granite worktops add a final luxury finish. A separate utility room has a shelved bar area and space and plumbing for a washing machine, a tumble dryer and an American style fridge/freezer. The walk in pantry provides even more storage. 

Off the kitchen there is a spacious sitting room with views over the garden, a study, a cloakroom and access to the integral garage. Under the stairs there is a storage cupboard that houses the water softener.

Upstairs there are five generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a dressing room, ensuite shower room and a Juliet balcony with breath taking views over the surrounding countryside and towards Wells Cathedral. All four further double bedrooms have walk-in wardrobes with Elfa adjustable hanging, shelving and shoe storage. The bedrooms also have Juliet balconies. There is a fully tiled family bathroom and an additional wet floor shower room.

Ceramic tiled flooring runs throughout the entire ground floor with engineered oak flooring throughout the first floor, with the exception of the bathrooms and ensuite which are tiled. The house has zoned underfloor heating throughout.

Outside: The south-facing rear garden has been beautifully landscaped with plenty of well established Mediterranean style shrubs, two mature silver birch trees and a large lawn. The impressive terrace spans the entire width of the house and sits in an elevated position with stunning views over the Glastonbury Tor and Wells Cathedral. An ideal spot for entertaining friends and family, with outdoor Hunza Stainless Steel LED lighting and power sockets, there is a step to a patio with a built-in 'Dakota fire-pit. At the end of the garden, a gravel seating area has a pergola over providing shade on sunny summer days.
