Location
Goose Lane is a quiet country lane that leads out of Chilton Polden. The lane quickly becomes very rural as properties thin out rapidly and soon you are in open countryside. The Polden Hills are a long, low ridge, extending east to west for about 10 miles. There are a number of small villages situated on both slopes of the ridge, many of which are named in the Domesday Book. They once formed parts of the estates of Glastonbury Abbey. The hills are dissected by footpaths and nature reserves and yet communication links are superb with the M5 within 5 miles.Chilton Polden has a friendly community, a church and village hall. Catcott first school is within a couple of miles along with various cafes, pubs and local shops.More extensive facilities can be found within 6 miles in Street and Bridgwater.
Description
Beechbank is a very endearing house that sits on a generous plot with glorious gardens all around. It offers extremely versatile accommodation with plenty of rooms downstairs along with an eat in kitchen and a downstairs bathroom. Upstairs there are two further double bedrooms and bags of storage space with further development potential if required (STP).The gardens are an appealing balance of mature trees, shrubs, lawns and terraces all very private. To the front of the property a small stream borders the lane, this provides an enchanting babbling-brook soundtrack to the setting. The stream is overlooked by a majestic beech tree.
Accommodation
A canopy covered path leads to the front door which opens to a generous central hallway. Stairs rise on the right and to the left is a bright, 17ft sitting room which is cosy and welcoming with an inset log burning stove and attractive stone surround fireplace and hearth. To the front an enormous window overlooks the verdant and varied front garden. In the hallway a handy coat cupboard and an airing cupboard provide neat storage.
*
Attractive glazed panelling with a glazed door leads to the kitchen which has fitted units, and space for a kitchen table and chairs. The kitchen is equipped with an eyelevel double oven, electric hob and extractor, larder cupboard and integrated undercounter fridge. A window above the sink overlooks the pretty back garden. A step down takes you to the utility room which has a worksurface and plenty of space for a fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a large broom cupboard and an exterior, timber door provides access to the front of the house. Beyond the utility room is a sunny breakfast room which has large fully glazed, east facing, sliding doors. These open to the garden, making this a wonderful spot for a morning coffee.
*
Adjacent to the kitchen is a family bathroom and beyond this is a delightful dining room, again with views over the rear garden. The study next door is fitted with shelves and, like the snug it has a large cupboard, suggesting that these two rooms could both once have been bedrooms.Upstairs there are two further bedrooms, one of which is very spacious. Both have dorma windows with views over the garden to farmland beyond and copious cupboards and eaves storage. A smart shower room, which is part tongue and grooved timber panelled and part tiled, is located off the generous landing as is another enormous cupboard. The configuration of the rooms and storage upstairs suggests there is scope for further development (STP) if required.
Outside
The house is approached from the lane through a timber gate in a traditional stone wall. The tarmacked drive splits and the right fork takes you to the large double garage and the left to the garden store. Both buildings have up and over doors (the garage is remote controlled), both have electricity.A varied collection of shrubs and mature trees create structure and privacy in front of the property and there is a gently sloping lawn. Paths provide access to the front door and to the fully enclosed rear garden. Here you will find a terrace with plenty of space for seating, attractive floral borders, a kitchen garden, greenhouse and a further lawned area, all enjoying total privacy backing onto farmland.
