EPC rating C.
A superb, incredibly well-proportioned property set within its own beautiful walled grounds, that were previously the site of a vicarage. The house has exceptional accommodation throughout, the highlight being the truly breath taking kitchen/family room, as well as four double bedrooms, an integral double garage and a fully boarded out loft room which offers superb potential for conversion. This wonderful home is designed for modern family life, offering an abundance of living space and is situated within the delightful village of Wookey, just a mile or so from Wells and within close proximity to several well-regarded schools and the City Centre. The well-planned accommodation offers a very light and airy feel throughout and is well laid out with many appealing features to offer. In particular, the stunning kitchen/living/family and the large sunny sitting room both offer perfect spaces to entertain or enjoy with the family. The open-plan kitchen at Fox House is the heart of the home and is an exceptional dining and living space that opens onto a rear conservatory, enjoying a delightful view over the attractive rear gardens and flooding the room with natural light. The kitchen area is perfect for those with a keen culinary interest and has a comprehensive range of fitted units including a large island with an adjacent breakfast table area with stylish lighting above. To the far end, there is plenty more space to house a large dining table for when hosting friends or family. The kitchen further benefits from a combination of oak and granite worktops, a 1½ bowl sink unit, fitted gas hob, double oven and microwave oven and fridge. Glass and oak doors from the kitchen lead you through to the delightful, triple aspect sitting room which has been extended to create a large, sunny living space. The room is wonderfully finished with oak flooring, double French doors onto the rear garden and the focal point being a glass fronted Stovax fireplace set within the wall. Further ground floor accommodation includes two additional reception rooms, one currently being used a cosy snug, although it is still a very decent size, a spacious garden room with doors onto the rear garden patio area and access into the double garage, a handy utility room and ground floor cloakroom. The garden room and garage offer further potential to create a home office, gym or annexe for the right buyer. Upon the first floor, you will find four double bedrooms and a fully tiled, contemporary family bathroom, all set off of a wonderful galleried landing that cleverly separates the master bedroom suite from the remaining upstairs accommodation. The light and airy feel continues throughout the first floor, as the majority of the rear elevation benefits from generous size windows that overlook the walled garden. Three of the bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, whilst the master bedroom has the benefit of a stylish, recently replaced en-suite shower room with wash basin, w/c & shower enclosure. Also upon the landing, a door opens to a staircase which rises to a large attic room, which offers great storage space and would also be perfect for conversion, subject to the necessary consents. The attic room already benefits from lighting, multiple power points, heating and a Velux window to the rear to enjoy the fabulous views over the surrounding orchards and countryside.
Fox House is situated within the highly sought-after village of Wookey which is only a few minutes' drive into the centre of Wells. Wookey has three public houses, a primary school and The Wookey Hub (coffee shop). There are good road communications to Cheddar and the A38 beyond which gives access to the M5 Motorway, Bristol Airport and the City of Bristol. Wells is only a few minutes' drive, renowned for its beautiful period architecture with landmarks such as the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace. There are many clubs and societies to get involved with and the city boasts a fine range of shopping, recreational and commercial facilities. The sought after Saxon village of Wedmore is also a relatively short drive to the west.
The house has fantastic style and superb, flexible living space and this is complemented by the large, completely private walled gardens. Approached by an impressive entrance, the driveway offers plenty of parking for multiple vehicles, as well as a screened shingle area to park a caravan or motorhome. The front garden area is extensively laid to lawn, whilst having the additional benefit of a large timber storage shed. The garden to the rear is largely laid to a well-tended lawn, with a variety of well stocked flowerbeds, fruit trees and shrubs, whilst also offering several paved seating terraces, perfect for al fresco dining in the warmer months. To the far end of the garden, there is a wood shed, greenhouse, and an additional seating area with a pergola and mature honeysuckle overhead, as well as a boules piste and pond with a lovely water feature.
