Description

Set back behind a generous private driveway and enjoying a mature, established plot, this handsome detached home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a long-held family residence in the heart of East Stoke. Having been cherished by the same owners for four decades, the house offers a wonderful sense of solidity and proportion, with clear scope for refinement and enhancement to suit modern tastes.

The approach immediately sets a reassuring tone, with ample parking and an integrated garage, while the symmetrical façade and bay-fronted elevation hint at the well-balanced accommodation within. Inside, the living spaces are classically arranged, with a comfortable living room centred around a feature Hamstone fireplace and a separate dining room providing an ideal setting for more formal entertaining. To the rear, a conservatory extends the living space and creates a natural connection with the garden, offering a light-filled retreat throughout the seasons.

The kitchen is notably generous in scale, arranged to provide extensive cabinetry and work surfaces, with space for informal dining and direct access to a utility room and cloakroom - an arrangement that lends itself well to reconfiguration into a more contemporary open-plan layout if desired. A Rangemaster with both a ceramic and a gas hob, plus double electric ovens is a real feature.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a single bedroom, are arranged around a central landing, including a principal bedroom with en suite, complemented by a family bathroom. The proportions throughout are consistent and practical, making the house ideally suited to both family living and those seeking adaptable space for home working.

Outside, the south facing rear garden is a particular feature - private, established and predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature fruit trees and planting that provide both structure and seclusion. It is a space that has clearly evolved over time, offering a peaceful and green backdrop with excellent potential for landscaping or outdoor entertaining.

Positioned opposite Stanchester Academy and within easy reach of the wider amenities of Stoke-sub-Hamdon and the surrounding Somerset countryside, the property combines everyday convenience with a village setting that remains highly sought after.

A home of genuine substance and longevity, offering immediate comfort with the opportunity to create something truly special.
