Description

BUSHMILLS HOUSE, QUEEN STREET, KEINTON MANDEVILLE, TA11 6DX 

A substantial five-bedroom detached house with a paddock in the centre of this popular village, between Castle Cary, Somerton and Glastonbury.

The well-presented accommodation includes an entrance hall, sitting room, study, kitchen, dining & living room, utility room, cloakroom, five bedrooms and three bathrooms.

Outside, there is a private enclosed garden laid to lawn, a second courtyard garden, and ample parking. Available by separate negotiation, there is a paddock with a yard area providing further parking and a workshop.

Accommodation
Bushmills has handsome Blue Lias stone and render elevations set back from the road behind a low stone wall. As you enter an inner lobby with cloaks hanging, space opens into a lovely, welcoming entrance hall. On the right-hand side is the sitting room, which, like the study across the hall, has oak floorboards as well as a dual aspect and limestone fireplace with slate hearth. French doors open out from the sitting room to a private patio courtyard. Leading back through the inner hallway, there is a cloakroom, an oak staircase rising to the first and second floors, and a door into the kitchen & dining room.

The kitchen is a fabulous room which has been extended, giving plenty of space in which to cook, dine and relax. There is a brand new kitchen with built-in appliances including a double oven, induction hob, integrated extractor fan, as well as an integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. As well as the dining area, there is a breakfast bar set into the oak worktops. Like the sitting room, French doors lead out to the patio courtyard, and at the far end, there are bi-folding doors out to a sunny seating terrace with a southerly outlook. Adjacent is the utility, which has recently been added and includes plumbing for a washing machine and further storage.

Leading upstairs on the first floor, there are four double bedrooms, a w/c, a family bathroom and an airing cupboard. The master bedroom has a dressing area, built-in wardrobes and an en-suite with bath, separate shower, heated towel rail and w/c. On the second floor, there is a fifth double bedroom which also has an en-suite bathroom and lovely southerly views from the Velux windows.

Outside
Immediately outside the kitchen bi-folding doors, the seating terrace is a real sun trap and opens to a fully enclosed garden with a summer house, which is ideal for pets and children. At the end of the garden, there are several useful stores.

Alongside the house, there are electric gates which open to a driveway leading to a gravel driveway. The gravel driveway leads to the yard where there is plenty of additional parking, and a workshop by the paddock could both be made available via separate negotiation.

Note: The gravel driveway also provides a right of access to Cedar Lodge, the neighbouring property to the rear.

About the area
