4 bedroom detached house for sale

With stunning panoramic views across Wedmore, this deceptively spacious and impressive four-bedroom home, on its extensive hidden plot, built in 2013, with double and single garages, and two-storey stone outbuilding, is beautifully presented and finished to a high standard throughout.

Northleigh House is perched on the hillside and has the appearance of an extensive single storey dwelling from the front and an substantial two storey home from the back. The property has been thoughtfully designed, with the reception rooms and kitchen on the entrance level, to make the most of the spectacular views, with the bedroom suites situated below. Fabulous oak flooring over underfloor heating runs throughout the reception rooms and entrance hall creating a beautifully warm and inviting contemporary living space, with windows across the rear of the house framing the views. The 29ft open plan kitchen and dining room span the house, front to back, offering plenty of space for busy family life. The kitchen is fitted with an array of sleek modern units topped with granite worksurfaces. Integrated appliances include dishwasher, fridge, freezer, double oven and induction hob. There is further storage and space for other appliances in the adjacent utility room where there is a WC and also direct access into the internal garage. The light spacious sitting room offers plenty of room for socialising, enjoying the views, or relaxing in front of the log burning stove. A further versatile reception room at the front of the house could be a playroom or snug and has previously been used as study and a bedroom and, as such, has had wet room area installed.

The three large bedroom suites, with their extraordinary panoramic views to the church and beyond, are all downstairs. The primary bedroom is over 21ft long and benefits from a modern shower room and separate dressing room. The second spacious bedroom also has an ensuite shower room, whilst the third bedroom is located next to the family bathroom and is adjoining a small room which could be used as a dressing area, nursery or study and, as an independent complex of rooms, it could create a third bedroom suite.

The property is heated by an air source heat pump, there is a bank of solar panels on the roof and there is a rainwater harvesting tank beneath the back lawn.

Outside

The property is approached via an unassuming driveway which opens out to reveal this surprising home with its bird’s eye view of the village. The driveway leads to multiple parking areas with access to the integral single garage and the double garage. Above the double garage is the front garden which is mainly laid to lawn with colourful borders and is surrounded by fencing. The rear garden is also laid to lawn with a paved terrace running across the back of the property. In the corner of the garden is a stone-built two-storey outbuilding suitable for renovation.
