Set in a tucked away area in the popular village of Draycott, Orchard End is a striking detached family home filled with lots of natural light in a good sized plot. The property has been remodelled by the current owners with extensive 'move in and unpack' accommodation and a quality of fixtures and finishes.
The current vendors have been in situ for 17 years, and in that period have undertaken a wide array of improvement and extension works which really have taken the property to the next level both aesthetically and practically.
The accommodation internally briefly comprises, on the ground floor, a welcoming entrance hall, sitting room with a feature fireplace, stylish kitchen/breakfast room with French doors to the garden, cloakroom, bespoke sun-room with built in storage and underfloor heating. Upstairs are four bedrooms, with an en-suite to the master and a family bathroom.
Outside the property is beautifully offset in the Close with wonderful views of the southern escarpment of the Mendip Hills in the background. It has off street parking, for three cars, leading to a double garage and gated access to an idyllic rear garden. This is partially laid to lawn with a patio making a wonderful private and sunny outside space perfect for entertaining. There is also a home gym/office set up in the garden with power and light.
Directions
Travelling out of Cheddar on the A371 Draycott Road, go past Cheddar Football Club on your right hand side. Continue out of Cheddar and into Draycott and turn right into Back Lane. Follow the road down and it will bear to the left. Mendip Lea Close can be found on your right and the property can be found around the corner on your right hand side.
Situation
The Somerset village of Draycott is situated on the Wells side of Cheddar, being some seven miles from Wells itself. Its atmosphere is one of unspoilt charm, with a variety of different housing types from small cottages, bungalows, modern homes, and larger period properties contribute to the individual character of the village. Local facilities include an infants’ school, post office and pubs whilst more comprehensive range of facilities are available at Cheddar where there is also Fairlands Middle School and The Kings of Wessex Academy. Commuting is available, Bristol 20 miles, Weston-super-Mare 20 miles, Wells 7 miles and M5 junction 22 12 miles. Bristol airport is about 12 miles to the North. There is private schooling in the area at Millfield School, Street 12 miles and Wells Cathedral School 7 miles. The area around is well known for its beauty. The lovely cathedral city of Wells is a drive away, as is the famous beauty spot, Cheddar Gorge.
We have noticed... What a fantastic living space and what attention to detail and luxury in the finish. Orchard End really feels bespoke at every turn and sits wonderfully well in its tucked away semi rural close.
