4 Old Farm Walk, Merriott, Somerset

THE AGENT SAYS...
Set within an attractive and carefully designed development of converted barns and newly built homes, this impressive property combines the character and individuality of a traditional rural building with the comfort and specification expected of a modern home.

Originally constructed as the show home for the development, the property was finished to an exceptionally high standard, including what was described as the highest specification kitchen available on the site. Having been purchased new in 2018 and occupied by just one owner, it has been exceptionally well cared for and offers an appealing opportunity for those seeking a character property without the renovation and maintenance associated with an older barn conversion. The house provides three generous bedrooms, spacious reception rooms, a superb kitchen, three bathrooms and excellent entertaining space, together with attractive communal surroundings and private outdoor space.

The house immediately makes an impression with its distinctive combination of natural exposed stone and traditional timber cladding, reflecting the character of the original agricultural buildings while incorporating modern detailing throughout.

The welcoming entrance leads into a particularly impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area, with the kitchen forming a real focal point of the ground floor. Originally specified to the highest level available within the development, it is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and quality NEFF appliances, including an integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. The kitchen opens through to a substantial dining area, creating an excellent space for family meals and entertaining. Beyond this is the spacious sitting room, which enjoys an attractive outlook and features a locally made fireplace constructed from Bath Stone with a log burner installed in 2023 by R A Wicks, creating a particularly cosy focal point during the colder months.

The ground floor also benefits from a useful shower room, providing excellent convenience for family life and visiting guests.

Rising to the first floor, there are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, The principal bedroom is particularly generous with fitted wardrobes, while the remaining bedrooms provide flexibility for children, guests or home working.

The first floor is completed by a well-appointed family bathroom, with the overall accommodation providing a very practical balance of bedroom and living space.

Throughout the property, the exposed stonework has been carefully sealed to prevent dust, retaining the visual appeal of the original materials while making the house straightforward to live in.

OUTSIDE

A management charge of approximately £30 per month is payable for the upkeep of communal areas.
