Description
Property Description: Guide Price: £600,000 - £650,000. Situated within a small, quiet cluster of houses in the sought-after village of Westbury-sub-Mendip, this light and bright, detached five bedroom home with open plan kitchen/dining room, is perfect for modern family living.
The light and airy, tiled reception hall with east facing windows, including a large picture window capturing the morning sunrise, is in the centre of the house and off which lead all of the main reception rooms, the downstairs WC. In the hall is double wardrobe storage for shoes and coats, understairs cupboard storage, and the main staircase. The spacious, open plan kitchen/dining room is west facing with a bank of double glazed sash windows which look out onto the rear garden and pond. The well planned kitchen has cabinets topped with oak wood worktops on three walls which provide plenty of storage and work space. There is an integrated SMEG double oven and gas hob, plus a fridge and dishwasher. There is space for a large, free standing fridge/freezer in the corner of the kitchen and the dining area has space for a dining table. Just off the kitchen there is a useful utility room with wall and base units, plumbing for a washing machine, and a gas boiler for the central heating. There is a door from the utility room leading out to the side and rear garden at one end, and the other leads to a side entrance hall which connects to a further room which is located above the garage. This room is built into the eaves and has storage in the eaves. There are two Velux windows, letting in plenty of sunlight. This room would be perfect as a guest room, playroom or office space.
Accessed from either the hall or dining room, is the main family living room. A light-filled room of generous proportions with a limestone fireplace and a wood burner centrepiece. There are three west facing sash windows allowing light to flood in that also capture the evening sun.
Upstairs the west facing principal bedroom is at the rear of the property with lovely views over the garden. There are two double built-in wardrobes, an en-suite shower room with large rainfall shower and heated towel rail. There is another spacious double bedroom with views over the garden and a further two bedrooms with views towards the Mendip Hills, one with built-in double wardrobes. The family bathroom has a bath plus a separate rainfall shower and a heated towel rail. There is also access to the loft and an airing cupboard for extra storage. Possibility of expansion into the loft subject to the usual planning consents.
Outside: A private drive leads down to the property with wrought iron gates that open onto a large gravelled parking area with parking for up to five cars, plus the double garage. To the rear of the property is the garden with a lawned area, well-kept borders with various plants and trees, a small wildlife pond and raised beds used for growing vegetables, salad and herbs. A paved terrace wraps around the property to the west and south, where there is an area perfect for outside entertaining and barbecues. The garden is enclosed with mature trees and a fence around the whole garden giving privacy and security.
Location: Farm Close is situated in a tucked away cul-de-sac in the popular and sought-after village of Westbury-sub-Mendip, located just 4 miles from Wells on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is a fabulous community run village store with a café in the garden. There is a popular village school as well as walks on your doorstep along the now disused railway line that ran through the village. There is a very strong community feel in the village and there are numerous clubs and groups that meet in the village and also a community tennis court and playground.
The Strawberry Line (as it is known), is now a popular cycle route linking this southern side of the Mendips from Yatton to Wells and beyond. There are numerous fruit and vegetable market stalls found along this popular route in Draycott and Rodney Stoke towards Cheddar offering you the opportunity to buy from a local producer. Or if you are feeling more adventurous why not try the Mendip Gliding Club for spectacular views as you soar over the Somerset Levels from just above Draycott Steep or further walks right on the doorstep up through the Mendips and beyond including the impressive Cheddar Gorge.
An easy drive to the historic city of Wells with the benefit of regular bus services provides a range of amenities with four supermarkets, a cinema, leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors, some fabulous independent shops and even some art shops for those seeking something a little different. There are also famous historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace, as well as the popular twice weekly produce market and Cedars Hall offering a range of cultural events throughout the year. Bristol airport is also only a short drive away (approx.15 miles)
