Description

9 Luns Close, Keinton Mandeville, Somerton, Somerset, TA11 6FG

An exquisite four-bedroom detached family home, set within arguably one of the best plots on this extremely popular residential development on the outskirts of Keinton Mandeville.

The high specification accommodation includes a reception hall, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, utility, four double bedrooms, one en-suite and a family bathroom.

Outside, the large wrap-around gardens enjoy excellent privacy, and there is an oak-framed garage and carport with extensive parking in front.

Accommodation
Lakeview is a unique, low-density development of high-quality homes, constructed using Blue Lias stone from the former quarry on which these properties are built. The award-winning local developers Galion are known for building characterful new homes which enjoy the best of unique design and modern convenience. This property, for example, benefits from timber-framed double-glazed windows, a highly efficient 84B energy rating and super-fast broadband of up to 900 mb/s download speeds. This is an ideal home for a family, or indeed a retired couple, given its proximity to all of the village's amenities and the safe local community. The property was completed in 2021 and, therefore, is still eligible for the remainder of its NHBC warranty until 2031. The properties enjoy many period features without the maintenance or shortfalls of a period property, giving you the best of both worlds.

The property occupies one of the best positions within a quiet private close, set at the head of the cul-de-sac with excellent privacy and sits within a generous quarter-acre plot with landscaped gardens, ample driveway parking and an impressive oak-framed carport and garage.

The front door opens into a welcoming reception hall, featuring a cloakroom and stairs that rise to a spacious, galleried landing. The sitting room is a light-filled triple-aspect space with French doors to the garden, and a central wood-burning stove providing a focal point. Double doors connect through to the dining room, which also has French doors to the terrace.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of wall and base units under quartz worktops, a Belfast sink, and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. A Smeg range cooker with a five-ring gas hob and extractor completes the space. French doors open directly onto the garden terrace. Adjacent is a utility room with additional units, a sink, and space for white goods.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a fitted wardrobe and en suite shower room with a corner shower, vanity basin and heated towel rail. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom with a bath and rain-head shower.

Outside
The property is approached over a brick-paved drive providing ample parking and leading to the oak-framed garage building. This consists of an enclosed garage with double doors and rear pedestrian access, together with an adjoining carport and loft storage. Power, light and an EV charging point are installed.

The gardens extend to about a quarter of an acre and wrap around the rear and side of the house. They are mainly laid to lawn with established hedging and fencing providing privacy, together with a paved terrace ideal for entertaining.
