House For Sale £700,000
What a truly magnificent property this is.
The current owner has designed the layout and interior finishes themselves providing a stylish and bespoke home offering ample accommodation over three floors including the impressive master suite on the second floor. Although currently laid out as a 3 bedroom home it would be easy to change this to 4 or even 5 bedrooms with the simple addition of a couple of stud walls on the top two floors.
This lovely home is situated in the picturesque and historical village of Norton St Philip which lies about 5 1/2 miles south of the city of Bath and 5 miles north of Frome, it also has good road links to both Trowbridge and Radstock. The earliest signs of habitation can be found a mile east of the village where the Roman road from Bath to Poole passed, the village was also mentioned in the Domesday book. It also lays claim to Britain's oldest tavern The George Inn which is located in the centre of the village and was built in the 14th or 15th century.
You enter the property via the impressive entrance hall with natural stone tiled flooring and solid oak bi fold doors to the sitting room to the left and the kitchen dining room to the right. There is also access to the large cloakroom which has a door to under stairs storage and there are stairs that lead to the first floor.
The sitting room is a great size and has feature windows to the front of the property, solid wood flooring as well as part glazed oak French doors to the garden room. There is a beautiful stone fireplace with a natural gas log stove- all the beauty and warmth of a real fire.
The kitchen dining room is a real joy and the beautiful hard wearing flooring from the entrance hall follows through the whole room. There are feature windows to the front and the room is open plan to the garden room to the rear. The kitchen has had no expense spared, with ample bespoke base and wall units as well as larder cupboard, beautiful natural granite worktops including curved splashbacks to the aga and double belfast sink and a curved breakfast bar. There are also modern appliances including an integrated dishwasher, eye level oven and space for a fridge freezer. This room is a lovely space to enjoy family meals, lunches with friends or just to simply enjoy cooking or baking your favourite recipes with everything you need right at your finger tips.
As you continue through the ground floor past the matching butcher's block kitchen island the room opens out to the amazing open plan wrap around garden room. This space is a wonderful place to sit back and relax and what a lovely view the ample windows and bi fold door that provides access to the pretty and established private rear garden and the roof lantern floods it with light in the day or star gaze at night. The garden room runs the whole width of the property and has doors to the sitting room as well as a door to the utility / laundry room where there is ample storage space as well as plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
From the entrance hall there are wide stairs that have a midway landing with a window to the rear. This leads you to the first floor landing with another window to the front and an open office / study area. With space for a large desk and ample storage what a lovely space to work and yet still feel part of this magnificent home. From the landing there are solid wood oak doors (which are repeated throughout the whole property) to two of the bedrooms as well as the family bathroom and a further split landing stair case to the second floor.
The second bedroom of the home is situated to the rear of the property and has a window and French doors to the Juliet balcony overlooking the garden and the stunning views of the countryside and village. This bedroom benefits from a large en-suite with frame free walk in shower, natural stone floor and wall tiles, W/C, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and a window to the front of the property. Bedroom three is situated to the rear and also benefits from the lovely views and is a good sized double with additional room for ample storage units. The family bathroom is opulently furnished with another walk in frame free, shower, free standing double slipper rolled edged bath, WC, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and natural stone floor and wall tiles.
The magnificent master suite can be found on the second floor, with a Velux window to the rear with far expanding country views and a dormer window to the front. It leads through to an area the current owners use as a dressing room / exercise area which has eves storage and is lit by its own dormer window and in turn provides access to the en-suite. Continuing with the style of the other bathrooms in the property there is a frame free walk in shower, W/C, wash hand basin, natural stone wall and floor tiles and is naturally lit by another Velux window to the rear.
Externally there is a freehold carport just a short distance from the property. At the bottom of the garden there is a gated and gravelled area that can provide further parking if required and street parking right outside the front of the home. The garden itself is an absolute joy, with several lovely areas to sit back, relax and enjoy the scents of the beautifully planted flower beds and listen to the birds. Or maybe pop into the octagonal garden shed and do some garden pottering yourself. There is a large patio area which is reached by the lovely bi fold doors in the garden room and is an amazing entertaining area enhanced by the fact that when the doors are open the garden feels like an extension of the house itself.
This substantial home is a one off, it has it all, location, space, style, home comforts, modern appliances and fitting all hand picked and designed by the current owner - you wont find another like it so don't miss out on this opportunity of a life time and arrange your viewing.
