House For Sale £749,950
Comfortable, light and welcoming, this is a lovely family house in the popular village of Compton Martin. It is both just right as it is and also offers potential for purchasers to put their own mark on it. Ideally located for instant access to countryside walks and local amenities as well as easy commuting distance from Bristol, Bath, and Wells this home will instantly charm you with its light entrance hall, entered via a timber and glass porch. There are two substantial reception rooms to the front of the property, the larger complete with a Jetmaster open fire, each room enjoying views across the village.
Across the rear is the kitchen and breakfast room enjoying views of the garden and the fields and hills beyond. There is a large pantry/utility room, and a rear lobby with a cloakroom off, and the back door leads directly out to the surrounding country garden with views all round.
Returning to the entrance hall we head up to the first floor and four very good sized bedrooms. The master bedroom is situated to the rear of the property with the most tranquil countryside views. Painted floorboards and the oversized window offer a spacious and light bedroom that could certainly house an en-suite if desired whilst retaining its spacious feel.
Next to this is the smaller of the bedrooms, previously a generous single bedroom and currently used as a study enjoying a dual aspect with views towards the Mendips and Yeo valley.
Along the landing is the spacious family bathroom with a separate shower and good sized bath. The remaining two double bedrooms are situated at the front of the property and benefit from long ranging views towards Blagdon and Chew Stoke. Each with character, one with a dual aspect and the other retaining its original cast iron fireplace, picture rails and ceiling.
Although situated centrally in the village, convenient for both the pub, post office and church, the position of the house also provides remarkable privacy and the gardens will equally impress as they offer several defined spaces to enjoy. The large patio stretches from the house towards the field, directly from the kitchen and ideal for entertaining alfresco. There is a lawned area surrounded by mature planting which allows glimpses of the countryside beyond and year round interest in the garden. There is a working corner of the garden with a compost heap etc behind the shed. At the other end of the shed there is an area of fruit trees and raised beds that meets the driveway which offers parking for several cars and access to a detached single garage. Returning to the garden and we continue towards the greenhouse currently accommodating thriving tomato plants.
The front of the property is equally impressive with winding steps leading to the front door and side access and with a mix of planting and lawn, and a small wildlife pond making this a lovely setting for this fine house. With its high ceilings, superb proportions and a sensible layout, this much loved family home is just waiting for its next owners to enjoy it.
Impressive from the start, this house will tick so many boxes and must be viewed to fully appreciate all that it has to offer. A true forever home.
