About this property

  • If this property does not command the very best views in the Chew Valley, it must surely be a contender! Located on a select hillside development in this sought after village, the two storey family home sits on the Northern side of the Mendip Hills with panoramic views over the valley and lake, and the beautiful 15th Century St Andrews church, towards distant hillsides and meadows.

    Originally built in 1964 and designed to make the most of its location, the property has been significantly improved over the years and now offers lovely bright family accommodation with a stylish split level layout allowing a good deal of flexibility. For example, an independent member of the family could use the two ground floor bedrooms with adjacent bathroom as their ‘own' accommodation or simply providing guests with a sense of privacy. Designing the layout to feature the main sitting room on the first floor was inspired, as at this level the true extent of the views can be appreciated both from within the room and on the very generous glass balcony beyond.

    The lake-facing modern kitchen is a well considered area without doubt a sociable and practical hub. It is well appointed with a granite island featuring prep sink and 5 ring gas hob, a Bosch double oven, wine fridge, integrated dishwasher and integrated fridge/freezer. Doors open directly to the rear garden and to a second reception room, currently used as a formal dining room but which could provide a relaxed snug overlooking the rear. A separate utility room is plumbed for washing appliances and with space for a dryer, and an unexpected feature is the useful cellar (with restricted ceiling height) that runs under the whole of the property and provides good hidden storage.

    It is understood that the garden is a former orchard and has a number of productive fruit trees in addition to colourful flower beds, a large lawn, ornamental ponds and both decking and patio for outdoor dining.
