Steps lead down to the front lawn which has a tulip tree, sycamores and conifers at the wild edges of the lawn. From the kitchen door is a second small breakfast/morning coffee area, with a water fountain coming out of the stone wall and an old stone Chinese smoke oven, used by the previous owner for smoking fish. Stone steps lead up to the higher level of the garden and mature trees.""Externally the windows are new double glazed units (installed in 2019) in Chatsworth green and on the patio a sage green screen has been made to screen off the oil tank. We also have a fire pit seating area and a chicken coop.""The house is very private, but there is very good access to local amenities. A small Co-op and excellent farm shop are in Farrington Gurney, just 1.6 miles away. Wells is a beautiful 7.2 mile drive away, with stunning views of Glastonbury Tor en route. There is a woodland trail from our door to the Litton pub which has outstanding food. There are lovely lakeland walks in Litton village. Norton Hill School is 4.5 miles away and there are excellent state and independent schools in both Bath and Wells."Additional Information:Postcode: BA3 4BUTenure: FreeholdUtilities: Oil, electricity, mains water and septic tankLocal Authority: MendipCouncil Tax: Band GBroadband: Please see - checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/broadband-coverageMobile Phone Coverage: Please see - checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/mobile-coverageStamp Duty Payable: Please see - gov.uk/stamp-duty-land-tax/residential-property-rates For more details and to contact: https://realtyww.info/houses_somerset-r741754/for-sale_i70273249
An imposing and exceptionally spacious six-bedroom Victorian era home of over 4200sq.ft, sitting within grounds of circa half an acre. This multi-faceted property boasts a wide range of quality outbuildings, from animal shelters to leisure and commercial in nature, offering all the space that a large family could need.ACCOMMODATION:Formal entry is found at the front elevation, where the truly imposing nature of this period villa is apparent, and the kerbside appeal is most evident. However, everyday access is likely to be from the rear, where our vendors have created a practical arrangement to suit busy family life. This entrance is sheltered by an oak-framed storm porch and opens into both the main reception hall and a boot room, to kick off those wet boots and clean muddy paws. The feeling of space and grandeur is immediately obvious from the high ceilings, wide staircase and cornicing in situ. All three reception rooms feature fireplaces and dual-aspect double glazed sash windows/doors, and the two principal sitting rooms retain wooden window shutters, ceiling roses and cornicing. The formal dining room is particularly impressive in its proportions and could easily host even the largest of family gatherings, while informal meals are easily catered for in the spacious kitchen/breakfast room, which is fitted with a bespoke range of stylish fitted wall and base cabinetry, including a centre island, granite worktops and twin bowl sink and drainer. Integral appliances include an oil-fired Aga, dishwasher, coffee machine and microwave, with further provisions for a Range style cooker and American style fridge/freezer. Completing the ground floor is the large and versatile utility room, hosting a plethora of everyday appliances and providing useful storage within a comprehensive range of fitted cabinetry. We envisage this also proving to be a great hobby space, with further work surfaces and drainer sink in place. An enclosed cloakroom to one corner provides a ground floor WC for guests.On the first floor, a wide and partially galleried landing leads to six bedrooms of fantastic proportions, most accommodating large beds, seating areas and a wide range of furniture, with space to spare. Even the 'smallest' sixth bedroom would offer a comfortable double room in the majority of households, while the exceptional master bedroom features a wide array of fitted furniture and a well-appointed en-suite shower room. A particularly generous family bathroom and a further shower room at the opposite end of the landing serve the remaining bedrooms.
