House, land and outbuildings, Sand, Wedmore, BS28

Sitting on almost an acre plot with paddock, stables, barn and garden office, this four-bedroom semi-detached home with fabulous rural views has ample driveway and parking is situated in the sought-after hamlet of Sand, just outside of the thriving village of Wedmore.

If you are looking for a lovely rural location with views and outside space to perhaps keep some goats, chickens and a pony, grow all your own produce, or have plenty of space to kick a ball around, then Windy Ridge could be the home for you. This lovely level plot, perched on the hillside looking out across countryside and over to Brent Knoll, offers scope for a multitude of outdoor activities. The plot is accessed on two sides, via the driveway at the front and through a gate out to the adjacent lane from the paddock. There is a stable block which at present provides useful storage and a barn, originally housing a workshop which has been converted into an insulated home office with power and fast internet connection. The house itself is well-positioned with gardens front and back and a smart tarmac driveway leading off the road providing ample parking and turning space and access to the rear garden.

This well-loved home is ready for a new lease of life and could be an exciting find for someone who enjoys putting their own stamp on a new home. Downstairs, the two main open-plan living spaces and the hallway span the house, running front to back, with French doors from both living areas opening into the rear garden and windows overlooking the front. The sitting room benefits from a log burning stove, making it a cosy, welcoming space in colder months. On warm days the French doors can be flung open to extend this living space into the garden. A covered terrace across the rear of the house links the sitting room to the kitchen/diner. The kitchen is fitted with a modern range of wall and base units with warm wooden work surfaces, a central island with a sink, and space for appliances.

The four bedrooms are upstairs and share a family bathroom with a shower over the bath, two wash-hand basins set in vanity units, and a WC. Ultra-fast broadband is available in the property and out to the garden office. A recent addition to the property is an enviable garden dining pod extending alfresco possibilities out into the paddock.
