The Dwelling - This five bedroom semi detached residence has been thoughtfully updated and renovated by the current vendors to create a spacious and versatile home. The property offers flexible accommodation arranged over two floors, with a variety of reception spaces on the ground floor, all designed to take full advantage of the panoramic views.

Accommodation - Upon entering the property, you are greeted by an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and snug area, with a rear-facing window spanning much of the back wall, framing the delightful countryside views. This bright and welcoming space is designed for modern living, with a central island forming the heart of the kitchen, surrounded by integrated appliances and complemented by a rear utility room that provides additional cabinetry, a sink, space for white goods and houses the boiler.

From the kitchen and dining area, French doors open onto the patio, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A further door leads to a cosy reception room, currently used as a games room, centred around a feature fireplace. An additional door leads to the internal hallway providing further access into the formal living room, which exudes character with its flagstone flooring and large inglenook fireplace with a bressummer beam and open fire.

Also on the ground floor is a versatile room, currently used as a study, complete with an ensuite shower room—offering flexibility as a potential ground-floor bedroom.

To the first floor, the master bedroom enjoys a triple-aspect outlook and features a well-appointed ensuite shower room fitted with a walk-in shower, wash hand basin, and WC. There is further potential to enhance this space, with electrics already in place to create a walk-in wardrobe if desired. The second bedroom boasts a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, taking full advantage of the stunning countryside views, while the third bedroom benefits from two walk-in wardrobes. The remaining bedroom, positioned to the front of the property, also includes fitted wardrobe space. A stylish family bathroom serves the bedrooms on this level.

Garden - The rear garden enjoys a sunny south-facing aspect and provides beautiful views over the neighbouring Blackmore Vale countryside. An elevated patio area adjoins the house, leading down to a lawned garden with a pathway extending to a stone-built outbuilding. This outbuilding offers generous space and excellent potential for use as a home office, studio, or additional accommodation (subject to any necessary consents). Adjacent to the outbuilding is a further patio area, perfectly positioned to take in the spectacular views. To the front, the driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles.
