Description
A deceptively spacious and versatile five bedroom detached family home, set within a private plot of over half an acre on the fringes of this highly sought-after Somerset village. Tucked away behind mature hedging and timber gates on the exclusive Barton Road, The Paddock is a substantial detached residence extending to some 4,066 sq ft (377.7 sq m) including its outbuildings, and offers exceptionally generous, light-filled accommodation arranged with genuine flexibility for modern family life. The property sits within Butleigh, one of the area's most desirable villages, and is just a short drive from the world-renowned Millfield School, making it an ideal base for families seeking excellent schooling on the doorstep.
ACCOMMODATION
The property initially offers an attractive, modern yet understated frontage, where an elegant oak framed storm porch guides you into an impressive and light filled reception hall, that immediately confirms there is much more to this home than first impressions suggest. The showpiece is undoubtedly its stunning open plan kitchen, dining and living space, which offers the epitome of modern living at the heart of the home. A sleek, contemporary kitchen features an extensive granite-topped island with integrated gas hob and bar seating as its centrepiece, a bank of Bosch double ovens and microwave, a dishwasher and hardwood worksurfaces, all flowing seamlessly into a generous dining area and further sitting space beyond. This wonderfully sociable hub of the home is bathed in natural light from the expansive sliding doors to the garden and provides the perfect setting for both everyday family living and entertaining on a larger scale.

Expansive lawned gardens wrap around the property, complemented by a generous stone patio ideal for outdoor entertaining, with plenty of room for a variety of seating and dining areas to enjoy the peaceful rural outlook across the sunny south-west facing rear.
The plot further benefits from two useful outbuildings: a high quality garden studio (17'8" x 17'8") formerly used as a golf simulator, but offering excellent potential as a home office, gym, or creative space, and a separate store found off the front drive (16'7" x 14'4"), — together adding valuable additional space beyond the footprint of the main house.
Ample off road parking is found at the front of the plot upon a tarmac driveway, before double wooden gates lead into a gravel pathway through the attractive front gardens, which a...
