4 Bedroom Detached House For Sale

With its panoramic views and beautiful rooms, this stunning house offers much more than may initially meet the eye, boasting a practical, sociable layout with low-maintenance, high-quality living spaces.


The Dwelling
Constructed in 2017 by a small, local developer and subsequently extended, this beautiful property really is quite deceptive. Tucked away at the end of a small close within a peaceful village, it backs onto open countryside giving you the most wonderful panoramic views from the principal rooms and rear garden.

The practical, well-proportioned rooms give you just the right balance between open-plan sociable living and separate areas for work, relaxation and play making it suitable for families or those who like to entertain visiting family and friends. Benefitting from underfloor heating on both the ground and first floors powered by an air-source heat pump, it gives an uncluttered look coupled with an efficient B rating on the EPC. The addition of a double garage to the front has created a lovely, additional private courtyard accessible from the kicthen / dining / family room whilst bi-folds open up across the rear of the house onto a landscaped garden making the most of the views.


Accommodation
The traditional hallway sets the scene for the accommodation, with engineered oak flooring and oak-topped stair bannisters coupled with oak internal doors. The open layout under the stairs adds to the feeling of space and there's a handy downstairs cloakroom to one side with contemporary suite and rustic timber shelving. Those who like to work from home or need space for hobbies will appreciate the separate study at the front of the house, away from the main living space and fitted with a built-in work desk and shelving. The generous sitting room has a traditional feel with feature fireplace and wood-burning stove for a cosy glow in the winter months. A large dual aspect room it spills out onto the patio area at the rear, ideal for outside dining and connecting with the rest of the rear garden. It's here you get the first glimpse of the breath-taking views.

Across the rear of the property the former kitchen / dining space has been opened up and extended into the former garage to create the most spectacular all-day and all-year round living space. With ample room for comfy sofas and for all the family to gather, bi-fold doors and full-length picture windows make the most of the natural light from both aspects, whilst the open-vaulted ceiling and stepped kitchen area gives awe-inspiring impact as you enter the room. There's space for even the largest of dining tables and this is slightly separated from the kitchen by a practical island unit. The copious cream fitted units provide a huge amount of storage space to minimise clutter and are topped with black granite worktops and a range of built in appliances including 5 ring induction hob, combi microwave and oven with warming drawer, fridge freezer and dishwasher. The island incorporates a built-in recycling / waste bin.

The first floor galleried landing provides access to all four generous bedrooms. The master bedroom makes the most of the beautiful views at the rear and includes a walk-in wardrobe and stunning en suite shower room. There is a separate guest suite at the front of the house for privacy, whilst the generous family bathroom with its bath and separate large walk-in shower serves the final two good size bedrooms.


Outside
Accessed via a shared private road, the driveway provides off road parking for around 3/4 vehicles and access to the more recently constructed double garage with roller shutter door, power and light and boarded storage area above accessible by pull down ladder. The creation of this extra garage space formed a lovely enclosed courtyard with water feature and raised beds, accessible from the front driveway and from the open-plan living space via french doors.

The rear garden which has been cleverly landscaped to create a low-maintenance but "green-finger friendly" garden with raised beds and borders to potter with, without too much to look after. Interlinking circular lawns are edged with slate and shrub borders, whilst a spacious composite deck area is graced by solid retaining walls flanked with mature palm trees and a further sleeper-edged bed with slate water feature. The stone paved terrace across the rear links up with the outside dining area by the sitting room doors, all making the most of the fabulous outlook.

There are ample power points and external taps to both the front courtyard and rear garden, as well as sensor lighting.


Situation
The two villages of Hambridge and Westport lie adjacent to each other along the route of the old disused canal and share facilities including the parish council. They lie within a short drive of several larger villages and towns including Curry Rivel, Ilminster and Langport, with Taunton a little further afield to the west. It is easily accessible with good road links and the village of Hambridge itself benefits from facilities including church, village hall, well-respected village primary school, and popular pub. There is a secondary school at Huish Episcopi, near Langport.

Langport provides everyday amenities including a medical centre, Tesco supermarket, independent shops and cafes, library, veterinary surgery, banks, public houses and takeaways. It's also a popular spot to join the Parrett Trail along the riverside and into the surrounding countryside. The county town of Taunton has a wider range of facilities including access to the M5 (J25) and inter-city rail link. Bristol and Exeter International airports are within easy reach (approximately an hours' drive).
