House For Sale £750,000
This beautiful, contemporary, detached family home with 4 bedrooms is set in the coveted coastal village of Sully and just a 5-minute walk to the beach and sea. Tastefully decorated, the house is a wonderful example of how open-plan living can embrace the needs of modern family life. To the rear a large south-facing, private and enclosed back garden, improved by the current owners, and an architect designed, glass-walled sun terrace with lovely views of the Bristol Channel and the distant Somerset coastline. This home has the Wow Factor!
66 South Road is a unique property designed and built some 20 years ago and while appearing as a dorma-bungalow from the front, it is in fact a spacious house with over 2,200 sq ft of living space. Set well back from the road, the property has a large low-maintenance paved front garden/driveway with plenty of turning space and parking for up to 6 cars as well as a generously sized integral garage. A solar panel system installed only 9 years ago gives the benefit of low-cost electricity and provides the owners with a 'generation feed' from their utilities provider of over £1,000 per year.
A brand new contemporary entrance door with digital keypad access (saving the hassle of getting keys out of your pocket) welcomes you into a large, airy double-height hallway with a glass panelled balustrade on the stairway that, in turn, rises to a clever mixed-use landing/seating/sleeping area with an eye-catching floor-to-ceiling picture window that maximises the sea views and provides a perfect spot to relax in with a book or a cup of tea.
The living/dining/kitchen is a wonderful open-plan L-shaped space, perfect for family living as well as for entertaining as it floods the inside space with light and gives access via two sets of sliding patio doors to the impressively large slate-tiled sun terrace. A new, large wood-burner in the feature wall provides focus and warmth in the living area.
The kitchen, supplied by the German company 'Leicht', benefits from an ultra-modern induction hob with extractor above, a built-in Neff double oven, an American fridge/freezer (included in the sale), masses of clever storage and a peninsula breakfast bar. A separate utility room connects the kitchen to the garage and gives access through a rear door to private raised patio and clothes drying area. The utility room has room for a washing machine and tumble dryer and contains the super-efficient Worcester boiler that powers the gas central heating and hot water.
The master bedroom has stunning views out over the Bristol Channel and extensive built-in wardrobes.
The family bathroom is spacious and modern with a large separate shower cubicle and an oversized Jacuzzi bath to relax in, plus built-in storage for towels and toiletries.
The second bedroom also has the wonderful Channel views and is a good sized double with two built-in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room.
The third bedroom is a compact double or generous sized single with a full-length wall of windows giving views to the front of the property.
Downstairs the fourth bedroom is also a double room, ideal as a guest bedroom or for someone who would prefer not to use the stairs, again benefiting from its own ensuite shower room, which also doubles as the downstairs WC. A contemporary full-height double wardrobe will also be included in the sale.
