Description

Property Description: Set back from the road in a wonderfully private position, this contemporary home has been thoughtfully designed with modern family life in mind, creating a remarkable sense of space and light with open-plan living at its core. The impressive front façade, framed by large feature windows sets the tone for what lies within. On entering, the generous south-facing accommodation immediately conveys a feeling of light and openness, with a natural flow that connects the interior to the surrounding gardens.

On the ground floor, there are two entrance halls, providing flexible access to the principal living areas. The large open-plan sitting room centres around a contemporary electric fireplace that subtly divides the space into two distinct areas, adaptable for dining or relaxed seating. Both spaces open through expansive south-facing bi-fold doors onto a paved terrace and the rear garden, encouraging a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The stunning triple-aspect kitchen is the focal point of the home, bright, spacious, and ideal for everyday family life. Double-height ceilings with skylights and a large feature window overlooking the front drive create a wonderful sense of volume and light. The natural stone tiled flooring, white cabinetry, and marble worktops lend a clean, contemporary feel, complemented by a large kitchen island with breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a large range cooker with induction hob and a dishwasher. A mezzanine landing above the kitchen adds to the architectural interest and enhances the feeling of openness.

Across the hall, the double-aspect dining room has French doors opening onto the terrace and garden, making it an ideal space for entertaining. This room could also serve as a snug or home office, offering versatility to suite modern family life. A well-proportioned utility room with a separate sink and ample storage sits nearby with a large wet-room style shower room with external access – a practical touch for returning from the garden or countryside with muddy pets.

Stairs rise from the hallway to the first floor, where there are three generous double bedrooms and one single, each enjoying a pleasant southerly aspect over the rear garden. The double-aspect principal bedroom has two built-in storage cupboards, a walk-in wardrobe, and an ensuite shower room. A family bathroom with bath, overhead shower and built-in shelving serves the remaining bedrooms.

Outside: The property is approached via a private track leading to a large driveway with ample parking, raised beds and side gate access to the garden. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by timber fencing, mature trees and shrubs, offering a high degree of privacy. A covered paved terrace runs the full length of the house with steps to the lawn, providing an ideal space for outdoor dining and relaxation. In the southwest corner, there is a greenhouse and a raised vegetable patch. An outdoor swimming pool sits alongside a timber summer house, ideal for long summer days with the family.

Location: Ham Street is a quiet country lane on the edge of Baltonsborough, a highly regarded village surrounded by open countryside between Glastonbury and Castle Cary. The village has a strong community feel with a popular primary school, village hall, community-run shop and café, and a traditional pub, all within walking distance for most homes in the village.

The nearby town of Glastonbury (6 miles) centres around the majestic ruins of the Abbey and attracts thousands of visitors each year to soak up its rich cultural heritage, vibrant community, and beautiful natural surroundings. Famous for its legendary links to King Arthur, the Holy Grail and the iconic Glastonbury Tor, the town has a lively high street with an array of independent retailers including quality food shops and cafes alongside complimentary health clinics. Further retail is also available at Clarks Shopping Village in the nearby town of Street (6 miles).

The surrounding landscape is ideal for walking, cycling and riding, with numerous footpaths and bridleways leading directly from the village. The nearby Somerset Levels, Glastonbury Tor, and the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offer wide-ranging opportunities for exploring this particularly scenic part of Somerset.

As well as the village primary school, there is an excellent range of both state and independent schools in the area including Millfield School, Wells Cathedral School, St. Dunstan's, The Blue School in Wells, Strode College in Street, All Hallows, Downside School and numerous other local primary schools.

Castle Cary railway station, about 7 miles away, provides regular mainline services to London Paddington, while the A303 is conveniently accessible for routes east towards London and west to the Devon and Dorset coasts.
