Occupying one of those positions that immediately sets a home apart, this impressive, detached property combines generous family accommodation with an attractive open outlook towards the Quantock Hills. Bright, spacious and exceptionally well presented throughout, the house has also been thoughtfully extended to the rear, creating a wonderful garden room that adds another dimension to the ground floor living space.
George Loves – “It's the position and the way the house makes the most of it that really stands out for me. Having that open outlook in front, with views stretching towards the Quantock Hills, gives the property a sense of space that is difficult to replicate. Then at the rear you've got the garden room, which is a brilliant addition and creates a lovely connection between the kitchen, garden and family living spaces.”
The accommodation extends to approximately 1,476 sq. ft. and is arranged with family life very much in mind. From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the first floor while the principal reception room sits to the front of the house. Measuring approximately 15'2" x 10'9", the sitting room is a comfortable and well-proportioned space, with a large window bringing in plenty of natural light and offering a pleasant outlook.
The real hub of the home is the impressive kitchen/dining room, extending to approximately 20'7" x 9'11". There is an extensive range of contemporary fitted cabinetry and work surfaces, together with a useful breakfast bar providing space for informal seating. Beyond the kitchen is plenty of room for a substantial dining table, creating a sociable setting for family meals and entertaining. A separate utility area provides further practical space, while a ground floor WC completes the everyday accommodation.
Flowing from the kitchen/dining room is the superb garden room, a particularly successful addition to the property. Measuring approximately 11'7" x 10'11", its generous glazing and overhead skylights flood the room with natural light, while the vaulted ceiling gives it an airy and spacious feel as well as underfloor heating to keep it useable all year around. Panoramic glazing provides a lovely outlook across the garden and doors allow the room to connect naturally with the outside space. Whether used for relaxed family evenings, entertaining or simply somewhere to sit and enjoy the garden throughout the seasons, it is a genuine highlight of the house.
Upstairs, the generous landing provides access to five bedrooms. The principal bedroom is an excellent double room measuring approximately 13'6" x 10'9" and benefits from its own en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms offer comfortable proportions, including two additional double rooms, while the fifth bedroom lends itself particularly well to a child's bedroom, dressing room or dedicated home office. A modern family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.
The property is equally impressive outside. To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to the integral garage, offering valuable additional parking and storage. To the rear is an enclosed south facing garden, arranged to provide both space for everyday family life and areas for entertaining. A generous decked terrace sits immediately alongside the house and garden room, creating an ideal spot for outdoor dining, barbecues and summer gatherings, with the remainder principally laid to lawn.
Owners Love – “The garden room is the sort of space that transformed the house and become part of everyday life for us. With the skylights overhead, and doors out to the garden, it's somewhere that can be enjoyed throughout the year. The way it links to the kitchen/diner, the house now offers the flexibility and space that makes busy family life work particularly well. We also love to make the most of the many countryside dog walks on our doorstep!”
The position is perhaps one of the home's greatest assets. Sitting opposite an open attenuation area gives the property a more spacious outlook than many modern homes, while the far-reaching views towards the Quantock Hills provide an attractive backdrop and a real sense of openness. Combined with its location in the popular village of Bishops Hull, the result is a particularly well-rounded family home.
