A charming and distinctive detached home with Dutch architectural influence, set within beautifully landscaped gardens, close to the centre of this much sought after West Somerset village.

Description

Dutch House is a distinctive detached home with Dutch architectural influence, occupying a generous plot of about 0.54 acres, with mature gardens and ample parking. The property extends to approximately 2414 sq ft, combining character with comfortable, well-proportioned accommodation, further enhanced by a bright conservatory overlooking the garden.

The welcoming reception hall provides access to the principal living spaces and sets the tone for the property. To the rear, a particularly attractive sun room enjoys a pleasant outlook over the gardens and flows naturally through to the sitting room, creating a flexible and sociable arrangement of living space. The sitting room in turn leads into a spacious conservatory, providing an excellent additional reception area with strong connections to the outside.

Also accessed from the reception hall is the kitchen/breakfast room, a practical and well-sized space with a door opening directly onto the side garden, ideal for everyday use. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a study, offering an ideal home working environment, together with a cloakroom/WC. Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from its own en suite bathroom, creating a comfortable and private retreat. There are three further bedrooms, all well-proportioned, served by a family shower room.

Outside, the gardens are a particular feature of the property, offering plenty of privacy and seclusion, as well as far-reaching views towards the Quantock Hills. The house is approached via a tarmac driveway, which leads to a large parking and turning area, with parking for several vehicles, between the house and detached garage building. The gardens have been beautifully landscaped and maintained, with mature borders, terraces and level lawns. There is also an attractive rill and pond.
