Accommodation

Views beyond compare! Perched on the slope of the Mendip Hills with far reaching views to the front this extended family home offers flexible and spacious accommodation within a quiet village setting yet only a short drive into Wells and conveniently located for both Bristol and Bath (both c.20 miles).

Entering the house via the entrance hall you will find a good sized dining kitchen with an extensive range of wall and base units with under unit lighting. Integrated appliances include ceramic hob (with extractor hood over), fan-assisted electric oven and grill, dishwasher and fridge. The kitchen has a tiled ceramic floor and there is plenty of light with two large south-facing windows in addition to an external door to the side. To the rear of the kitchen is a utility room with oil fired boiler and integrated fridge and freezer as well as plumbing for washing machine and venting for a tumble dryer.

To the rear of the hall is a ground floor cloakroom with airing cupboard and useful under stairs cupboard. Finally on this floor is a master bedroom with en suite bathroom.

Going up the stairs to the first floor landing all of the reception rooms are off to the right with a double aspect lounge having a balcony to the front from which to really appreciate the views and a second set of patio doors giving access to the rear garden. The lounge opens into a sitting room with feature open fireplace. An engineered wooden floor runs through both of these rooms. A door opens from the sitting room to a staircase leading down to a bedroom or reception room. Slightly removed from the rest of the house this would be a great teenagers bedroom or perhaps a home office.

On the other side of the landing there is a family bathroom (electric shower over the bath) and three further bedrooms.

Double glazed windows throughout. Oil fired boiler supplying central heating and hot water.
