Location
Situated in a private location, at the end of a no-through-road, on the periphery of the village with open, rural views over farmland grazed by sheep and cows, this handsome property enjoys the best of both worlds – immediate access to the surrounding countryside but with village facilities within easy reach.

The Village Hall provides a venue for various, eclectic events throughout the year. St. Mary’s church is a welcoming hub in the village, again with many events throughout the year.
Wedmore First School and preschool feed into a middle school in Blackford and the senior school in Cheddar.
There are various sports clubs including tennis, bowls, cricket, and junior football.
Wells is 8 miles east offering further facilities, and the M5 is a similar distance to the west, plus Bristol Airport is only 14 miles north.
Description
An exceptionally well-presented, welcoming home with outstanding eco-credentials, nestled in a highly desirable, edge of village setting.
The practical layout would suit a range of buyers and the quality finish and 6 years remaining on the NHBC warranty provides peace of mind for future owners.
Accommodation
The front door opens to a bright and welcoming reception hall where there is understairs storage and a cloakroom. The living accommodation radiates from this central hall. To the right is an inviting study/snug, featuring a handsome bay window that beautifully frames the charming rural views to the north.
The kitchen/dining room stretches across the back of the property and bifold doors open, beside the dining area, to the delightful, south facing garden which has been planted to create interest throughout the year. Beside the kitchen is a fitted utility room with base and wall units, there is a sink and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. An exterior door opens to the driveway, this is the door most frequently used to access the house.
The kitchen has a comprehensive range of stylish fitted units which include an integrated fridge/freezer, eyelevel double ovens, gas hob with extractor, dishwasher and a central island with breakfast bar is a casual place to dine. A pale Quartz worksurface compliments the classic units in both the kitchen and utility room.
Double glass internal doors open into a spacious dual-aspect sitting room, featuring bifold doors that lead out to the garden. A large north-facing window enjoys delightful rural views, while a further glazed door provides access back to the reception hall.
Karndean flooring throughout the ground floor is attractive and super practical.
Upstairs there are 4 double bedrooms, two ensuite shower rooms and a family bathroom. Three of the bedrooms have built-in-wardrobes and there are super views over the surrounding farmland, especially from the principal bedroom, which, like the study below, has a large bay window.
Outside
The property is approached on a no-through-road which feels like a private drive as it wraps around the house to the double garage, as a result there is plenty of space for friends and family to park when visiting.
The communal land which adjoins the property is very accessible, almost like an extension of the garden and grounds.
Attractive planting to the front of the property includes lawns, enclosed by a well-established Red Robin hedge and floral borders. Planting continues around the outside of the garden wall.
A timber gate opens onto the enclosed rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn and has been thoughtfully planted with a variety of trees, including silver birch, pleached cherry laurel, cherry blossom and flamingo willow. Scented climbers, including honeysuckle and winter jasmine, complement the delightful floral borders. A terrace adjoining the house provides the perfect setting for outdoor seating and relaxation.
A door opens to the side of the garage which has two doors to the front and plenty of eaves storage above. There is an EV charge point.

P.S.
A few extra comments.
Mortgages – we can help.
