A charming and well proportioned four/five bedroom detached family home set within private gardens and quietly tucked away within this sought after village. EPC Band F.

Situation - Orchard House is quietly tucked away within the heart of this sought after village where a good range of day-to-day facilities are within an easy walk including two public houses, a boutique hotel with spa and restaurant, garage with general store, petrol station, doctors surgery, shop/post office, butchers, primary school, church and village hall. For a greater selection both Yeovil and Crewkerne are 3.5 and 5.5 miles away respectively where a good range of shopping, recreational and scholastic facilities can be found, together with mainline rail links to Exeter and London Waterloo.

Description - Orchard House is situated within a wonderful quiet location within this village and is initially approached over the grand, tree lined driveway to The Manor House with its own gated drive leading to the property. Parts of the house are believed to date back approximately 300 years, although it has been much developed throughout the centuries. It is a striking property with bay windows to the front ground and first floor aspects. The house is beautifully proportioned and has many fine features including delightful flagstone flooring, but has recently been subject to a programme of refurbishment for the demands of modern day living. Outside there is a sweeping driveway providing ample parking and turning along with access to the garage, together with large private lawn to the front, together with a paved sun terrace to the south, ideal for outdoor entertaining as it leads directly off the kitchen.

Accommodation - A covered porch leads to a glazed door, which opens into a flagstone tiled hallway opening directly into a beautiful dining room with high ceiling, bay window to front and open fireplace with feature wood burning stove (decorative only). An arch doorway leads into the kitchen/dining/family room which has been completely refitted and comprises; sink unit with adjoining composite worktops and an excellent range of floor and wall mounted cupboards and drawers. A substantial island unit with breakfast bar and attractive vinyl flooring. Discreetly integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, double electric oven, electric hob with extractor over and dishwasher. Door to the southern terrace and adjoining lounge area with windows to front.

Within the centre of the house is a inner hallway with flagstone flooring, with staircase rising to the first floor and a ground floor bedroom/study with window to rear. The main sitting room is spacious, light and airy with views from two aspects including large bay window to front. Attractive fireplace with marble surround and inset wood burner.

Leading off the rear hallway is a rear lobby with door to rear and adjoining utility room with space and plumbing for washing machine, tumble dryer and under counter freezer, along with a Baxi boiler. Door to garage/workshop and adjoining cloakroom with low level WC and wash hand basin.

On the first floor can be found a spacious landing, off which are three spacious bedrooms all with excellent storage. The principle bedroom is particularly luxurious with its views from two aspects and modern stylish en suite bathroom; tiled throughout and with a roll top bath, shower cubicle, basin and WC. At the rear of the house can be found a small area, with window to rear, ideal as a study area. Beyond is a inner landing with door to the rear bedroom, ideally positioned next to a beautifully finished family shower room with large shower cubicle, basin and WC.

Outside - Orchard House is initially approached over an impressive tree lined driveway, accessed through entrance pillars, leading directly to The Manor House, off which a gated driveway leads to Orchard House. Its driveway provides ample parking and turning and access to the garage/workshop which measures 19'0" x 11'6" and is connected with power and light, along with a window to rear and personal door leading back to the utility room. Adjoining the driveway is a wonderful front garden which is laid mainly to lawn with attractive flower and shrub borders and a fine selection of trees. It is the perfect spot for tables and chairs for which to enjoy them.
The gardens extend to the side of the property providing a further southerly paved terrace with direct access from the kitchen making this an ideal spot for outdoor entertaining. A pathway encircles the house and to the rear is a useful outhouse.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
