'Westerhall' is an attractive detached family house constructed in the mid 1950's, it sits in a gently elevated and generous plot which allows the property to take full advantage of the beautiful scenery and backdrop of the Mendip Hills. Offered with no onward chain complications the property is now in need of some updating and improvement, thus offering a lucky buyer the opportunity to create their own grand designs family home in the most incredible position.

Approached via a discrete private lane shared with just two other properties, Westerhall sits resplendent within its own spacious grounds and is accessed by a sweeping in and out driveway. Constructed in the Mid 1950's there are several useful outbuilding and improvements to the main house that have been made over time. A handy storm porch to the front provides ample space for cloaks and boot and continues into the entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. To the right of the hallway is a lovely bay fronted sitting room with a feature fireplace and patio doors leading out to the rear garden. Central to the hall and house is a separate dining room which enjoys a beautiful southerly aspect over the garden and also features a period style fireplace. The extended kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of traditionally styled wall and base units with an additional breakfast bar, there is plenty of space for a breakfast table and a light and airy dual aspect. Beyond the kitchen there are several incredible useful rooms including a utility room, a store room and ground floor cloakroom, there is also a door to the garden and door to the front.

On the first floor you will find three good sized double bedrooms along with a four Cot-Room/office, the views from the upstairs bedroom windows are truly delightful, stretching out either to the front over the properties over the well tendered lawn or to the rear over the glorious south facing garden towards the wooden hillside of the Mendip Hills. Two of the bedrooms also benefit from fitted wardrobes and completing the first floor accommodation is a family bathroom.

Outside, there is a large double garage/workshop that has huge potential and a former dog kennel which is adjoined to the main house with a dog run in front of it. There are a number of other outbuildings including a shed, greenhouse and store. The garden at Westerhall is quite amazing, it features a large Koi pond which takes centre stage within the spacious rear patio, the garden is mainly laid to lawn with a variety of mature trees, shrubs and borders and has every bit as much potential as the house itself. The glorious southerly aspect, privacy and incredible backdrop is simply magnificent.

WE HAVE NOTICED... Completely hidden from view and yet with a delightful open aspect to the front and rear, Westerhall has such incredible potential, the generous plot and grounds offer buyers the opportunity to create their own dream home in a simply divine location.
