DESCRIPTION

Boasting fantastic views over the local countryside this much loved individual home has been

subject to many sympathetic improvements over recent years and now offers perfectly

balanced and flexible accommodation ideally suited to family life.

The property is approached via a generous tarmac driveway offering ample parking for several

vehicles and leading to the double garage, the handsome stone Gable to the front of the

house offers a striking first impression and adds intrigue as to what lies within. A useful storm

porch provides access into a generous and welcoming entrance hallway and provides a handy

space to store wet boots and raincoats on a blustery Winters day.

The entrance hallway is light and spacious and provides access to the ground floor rooms and

also a useful ground floor WC. The sitting room is a delightful triple aspect room and features

a beautiful stone fireplace with wood burner along with French doors to the rear which

connect directly to the Garden Room and doors out to the garden. The Garden room looks

directly out over the mature rear garden and farm land beyond and is a restful and peaceful

room from which to wind away the hours with a good book and take in the beautiful scenery.

There are two further reception rooms on the ground floor including a formal dining room

which links directly to the kitchen and a study/office or perhaps play room to the front of the

house.

The kitchen is fitted with a good range of traditional farmhouse style units and has space for a

large six ring range cooker and provision for other white goods. There is a side door providing

access out to a covered seating area and the rear of the garages.

On the first floor are the four bedrooms, all of which benefit from varying outlooks over the

breathtaking local scenery. The Master bedroom is a simply magnificent room and enjoys the

most impressive views from any room in the house and features generous built in wardrobes

and eaves storage, along with a private shower room. Completing the first floor

accommodation is the well fitted family bathroom with shower over bath and separate WC

which are situated off a lovely galleried landing area.

EPC rating D

Outside the property is bounded on three sides by a generous and mature garden which is in

the majority laid to lawn but also features a large stone terrace along with numerous matures

trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants. The garden is without question a real feature of the

house, it is a tranquil and peaceful space to enjoy and has ample room for Children's play

equipment, growing home produce or simply soaking up the sunshine on a mid-summer’s day.

Finally, and for some most importantly, the property is blessed with two garages which have

power and lighting and could suit a classic car enthusiast, where they could tinker to their

heart's content or perhaps an active family who need storage for bikes, outdoor equipment

and general stuff.

SITUATION

Shipham is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a highly sought after village,

nestled in the picturesque Somerset countryside. It is well served by first, middle and senior

schools and is much sought after by those commuting to Bristol, as it offers all the advantages

of rural living with many bridleways and footpaths, including the West Mendip Way which

crosses the parish providing ready access to the hills and Mendip plateau, where there are

extensive views across the Bristol Channel to the Welsh coast and Brecon Beacons beyond.

Indeed, it is very well positioned for local transport links and the M5 motorway which is

accessible via junction 20 at Clevedon, junction 21 at St Georges and junction 22 at Edithmead.

Village facilities are available, including butcher/stores, garage, public house and further

shopping facilities at nearby Winscombe and Cheddar. The new village hall (with its stage,

sports hall, function rooms and kitchen) is a popular centre for a broad range of community

events and activities for all ages. Private sector schooling is close by at Sidcot and the Downs

School at Wraxall is within easy reach, as are Wells Cathedral School and Millfield. In the state

sector, Kings of Wessex School (www.kowessex.co.uk) is nearby and for sports and

recreational amenities, Churchill Academy is a drive away. The surrounding area is excellent

riding country and is sure to appeal to equestrian enthusiasts and walkers. There is an

international airport at Lulsgate and access to the mainline railway station at Yatton.
