High Street, Stoke-Sub-Hamdon, Somerset

THE AGENT SAYS...
68 High Street is a fantastic property that is sure to be snapped up quickly. This wonderfully welcoming home has been designed and finished to a superb standard and is a home you would be proud to welcome people into. Not only is the house stunning but the unexpectedly large garden is also amazing and has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Be quick - this one won't hang around!

PROPERTY
The entrance hall is bright and welcoming with wood panelling, an attractive tiled floor, spindle staircase with storage beneath, and a lovely long view through the kitchen/dining room to the garden. The inviting sitting room is at the front of the house and has a charming fireplace with wood-burning stove at its heart.

At the end of the hall is the stunning kitchen/dining room. This room has been well designed to make the very best of the available space and offers a dedicated dining area, breakfast bar, and a spacious kitchen with plenty of storage and work surfaces. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cream shaker style base and wall units topped with oak worktop, a ceramic inset sink, black handles and fittings, blue-green Zellige tile splashback, and decorative scaffold board shelves. There is a freestanding range cooker with gas hob, space for a fridge-freezer, French windows, a fully glazed door leading out to the courtyard, and space for a dining table to seat 4-6 people in comfort.

First Floor
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The two bedrooms are both a good size and have stripped floorboards and French windows. The large family bathroom cleverly incorporates a washing machine and tumble drier alongside the other facilities which include a countertop sink (with storage underneath), WC, designer heated towel rail, and a shower bath with on-trend Crittal style screen.

Second Floor
The principal bedroom occupies the whole of the second floor and is a lovely, airy room with three skylights, eaves storage, plenty of space for freestanding furniture, and an additional storage cupboard on the landing. The monument at the top of Ham Hill can be clearly seen from here.

OUTSIDE
Abutting the house is a delightfully secluded courtyard enclosed by stone walls, with climbers tumbling over the top and hart's tongue ferns gleaming from between the blocks. There is a small stone outbuilding with a tiled roof and stone steps lead up from the courtyard to a paved outdoor dining/barbecue area. Beyond this the lawned garden stretches away, beyond what the eye can see, meandering like a river up the gentle slope. The borders are filled with trees and shrubs that create a wonderful verdant oasis and provide shade in this sunny, southfacing garden. There is a hexagonal summerhouse tucked away about halfway up the lawn and a greenhouse at the far end. There is a pedestrian right of way to the end of the terrace.

SERVICES
