Location
Kingsway is a very quiet lane in the heart of the village. Almost the last house on the east side of the lane, this property benefits from a rural outlook and yet has the facilities of the village in easy walking distance, and a great sense of community, arguably the best of both worlds.
The village has amongst other things a church, junior school, 2 pubs, village store and post office, hairdresser, very good garage, saddlers, hardware store and a busy village hall.
Set in a rural location, it is surrounded by farmland and there are many wonderful footpaths and quiet lanes, however the M5 is only 3.5miles to the west and the beaches and facilities of Burnham-on-Sea and Berrow are not much further. Wedmore, which has sports facilities and further amenities the same distance to the east.
The village community is friendly and diverse.
Description
A spacious, much loved family home, which has flexible accommodation with scope for a 5th bedroom downstairs if required.
Built in 2001 with clever use of space and plenty of storage this is a property which can and has adapted to accommodate changing family life.
A good sized enclosed rear garden is perfect for children and animals and there is plenty of parking and a versatile garage/office.
Accommodation
The front door opens to a generous hallway. Most of the ground floor has wood-effect flooring throughout, which is practical and stylish. The sitting room, on the right, has a handsome, Victorian, cast-iron fireplace with a gas, coal-effect fire, ideal for extra warmth and cosiness in the winter months. French doors lead out to the rear garden in this sunny and bright, dual aspect room. The dining room has glazed, double, internal doors, ensuring there is an open feeling to the ground floor, and French doors out to the garden.
The kitchen breakfast room has a stunning timber work surface, contemporary and understated units with integrated appliances, including a double oven, gas hob, extractor, and dishwasher. The sink is below the window which overlooks the rear garden, a double-sided breakfast bar provides additional work surface and a very sociable, yet casual place to dine.
A well fitted utility room has the same stylish units and matching timber work surface as the kitchen. There is space for a tumble dryer and a washing machine and in addition there is a large larder cupboard with internal lights, an integrated fridge/freezer, and an integrated microwave oven. Beyond the utility room is a cloakroom and an exterior door opens to the rear garden.
A study/5th bedroom completes the accommodation on the ground floor and there is a handy under-stairs cupboard, plus a separate, large, coat and boot cupboard.
Upstairs on the galleried landing is a west facing window with glorious, far-reaching views over farmland. All 4 bedrooms are a good size, and most have wardrobes. The principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and there is a bright, fresh, family bathroom. 2 airing cupboards offer plenty of additional storage.
Outside
The house is approached through a timber farm gate with parking for at least 3 vehicles at the front on a gravel drive. A single garage on the north end of the property, was used in the past as an office. It has timber double doors on the front, and there are sliding, glazed French doors out to the rear garden at the back, as well as central heating, wood effect flooring and lighting. It could easily be adapted to become an office again depending on your requirements.
A path leads around the south side of the property, through a garden gate, to the rear garden, which is enclosed and mainly laid to lawn. There is a potting shed and an additional timber tool shed beside a deck area, ideal for seating.
