Description
A recently extended and much improved house with excellent, light filled, living accommodation and three bedrooms. The gardens are a real feature of this lovely property, and the present owner has done a superb job of creating an easy to manage but wonderfully varied garden environment, with fruiting trees and bushes, a well maintained but manageable vegetable garden and a large lawned area for family fun.

Accommodation
The front door opens to a central hallway. To the left is the spacious 'L' shaped sitting room which has a triple aspect. The large front window has wonderful, uninterrupted views over the front garden to farmland beyond and on to the Mendip Hills in the distance. A freestanding, multifuel stove provides cosy warmth for the winter months. Next to the sitting room is the fabulous, recently fitted kitchen. This is sleek, stylish and well designed with AEG integrated appliances throughout, including a slimline dishwasher, an induction hob, extractor (linked), double oven, eyelevel microwave and warming oven and fridge/freezer. There are under unit lights, a sun tunnel, composite worksurfaces and two large, discreet built-in-cupboards, which provide plenty of additional storage.

The kitchen opens seamlessly to the bright and spacious sitting room/dining room, dominated by 3 fabulous bifolding doors which open to the rear garden. The view over the garden is delightful and will change daily as the seasons change. There is plenty of space for a large table and chairs and a sofa in this versatile room and the painted, brick wall adds a stylish, understated feature in this fresh, sunny room. A door leads to the utility room where there are more fitted units, a sink and space for a washing machine. An exterior door leads from here to the rear of the property. To the right of the hallway there are three bedrooms, one of which has an ensuite shower room and large fitted wardrobes and there is also a family shower room.

Outside
The house is approached up a tarmacked driveway where there's space for multiple cars along with a single car layby to the front. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and trees defining the border. A smart summer house embraces the views to the west and is well positioned to enjoy the evening sun. The rear garden is enclosed, and it can be approached from either side of the house as the path wraps around both sides. To the east you will find a well-maintained kitchen garden with manageable raised beds surrounded by gravel paths and a greenhouse takes centre stage. The rest of the rear garden is a combination of fruiting bushes and trees, floral beds and lawn, a sheltered gravel terrace to the south is perfect for alfresco dining.
