12 KILN DRIVE, EVERCREECH, SHEPTON MALLET, SOMERSET, BA4 6DT
A beautifully presented four-bedroom end-of-terrace house, quietly situated within a small cul-de-sac on the edge of Evercreech. The property backs directly onto open countryside and enjoys wonderful, far-reaching views across the adjoining fields.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors and includes an entrance porch and hall, stylish kitchen, sitting room and a versatile dining room or study. There are three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor, while the entire top floor is given over to an impressive principal bedroom with built-in storage and an en-suite shower room.
Outside, there is driveway parking for two vehicles and an enclosed rear garden with a paved terrace, low-maintenance artificial lawn and an open rural outlook. The property has uPVC double glazing, gas-fired central heating and is offered for sale with no onward chain.
Accommodation
The front door opens into a useful entrance porch with space for coats and shoes. A partially glazed internal door continues into the entrance hall, where a turning staircase rises to the first floor and wood-effect LVT flooring extends through from the porch.
The kitchen is particularly well appointed, with a range of contemporary, high-gloss units incorporating generous cupboard and drawer storage. Complementing worktops surround a composite one-and-a-half-bowl sink, with tiled splash-backs above. Integrated appliances include a double oven, electric hob with extractor, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. There is also space for an American-style fridge freezer and a breakfast bar for informal dining. The gas-fired boiler is concealed within a cupboard and was replaced within the past three years.
The dining room is positioned at the front of the house and provides a useful second reception room. It could work equally well as a formal dining room, home office, playroom or occasional guest space.
At the rear, the sitting room is a bright and comfortable family room, with a window and glazed patio doors framing the countryside views and opening directly onto the garden. There is also a useful understairs storage cupboard and a contemporary vertical radiator adding to the stylish interior.
The first-floor landing gives access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom, with a further staircase continuing to the second floor.
Bedroom two is a generous double room overlooking the front and includes a built-in wardrobe. Bedroom three is another comfortable double, positioned at the rear to take advantage of the far-reaching rural views.
The fourth bedroom is a well-proportioned single room, also enjoying views across the adjoining fields. It would be equally suitable as a nursery, dressing room or home office.
The family bathroom has been finished in a stylish contemporary manner. It includes a freestanding double-ended bath with a shower attachment, WC and a vanity-mounted wash basin with storage below. Contrasting fittings, tiled flooring and a heated towel rail complete the room.
The principal bedroom occupies the entire top floor, creating a particularly private and spacious main bedroom suite. Two rooflights bring in plenty of natural light and provide views to both the front and rear, while extensive built-in eaves cupboards offer excellent storage.
The adjoining en-suite includes a shower enclosure with panelled walls, a countertop basin, concealed-cistern WC and heated towel rail.
Outside
The rear garden backs directly onto open countryside, giving it an attractive sense of space, privacy and a particularly pleasant outlook.
Immediately adjoining the house is a paved terrace, well positioned for outdoor seating and dining. The main garden is laid with low-maintenance artificial lawn and includes a water feature and timber storage shed. The garden is fully enclosed by fencing and walling, with gated access leading around the side of the house.
At the front, a tarmac driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles. An outside tap is also provided.
