The village itself has a vibrant community and offers amenities including a traditional public house, church and village hall.
The property is surrounded by unspoilt countryside and lies within a mile of Norton Sub Hamdon, where further facilities include a Post Office and village store, primary school, and doctors’ surgery. The nearby Ham Hill Country Park provides superb walks across beautiful landscapes, together with another popular public house.

Description - Stocks Orchard centres on an individually designed and thoughtfully extended three-bedroom detached bungalow, believed to have been constructed in 1988. Built principally of attractive local Hamstone beneath a tiled roof, the property benefits from wooden double-glazed windows throughout and oil-fired central heating. The approach is particularly charming, with a sweeping driveway leading to the bungalow, which sits in an elevated position and enjoys a large sun terrace together with beautiful gardens and grounds.

Additional features include a spacious garage/workshop with adjoining office, a separate gym/studio, and a cellar, providing excellent versatility for a range of uses. In all, the grounds extend to approximately 0.62 acres.

Accommodation - A glazed front door with side screen opens into the entrance lobby, fitted with bookshelves to one wall and glazed French doors leading through to a welcoming hallway. The hallway features attractive maple flooring, a rear glazed door, a useful store cupboard, adjoining airing cupboard, and loft access via an aluminium ladder. The lounge/dining room enjoys light from three aspects, with patio doors opening onto the sun terrace. A bottled gas living flame fire creates a cosy focal point, complemented by moulded cornicing and a sliding glazed door through to the sun room/sitting room. This wonderful additional living space enjoys views from four aspects, including patio doors to the terrace and a glazed door to the front, together with an exposed Hamstone wall, tiled flooring, moulded cornice, and two ceiling fans. The kitchen/breakfast room is well appointed with an excellent range of solid wood wall and floor units, granite worktops with drainer, and a stainless steel sink with mixer tap. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and grill, ceramic hob with stainless steel cooker hood, dishwasher, and fridge. The breakfast area provides space for a table, with two front-facing windows, a light-tube, and tiled flooring. A glazed door leads to the utility room, fitted with matching units, a stainless steel sink with mixer tap, tiled flooring, two windows, and a side door. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, along with two built-in Candy fridge/freezers and a Grant oil-fired boiler.

The principal bedroom enjoys delightful dual-aspect views and includes a ceiling fan. Its en suite bathroom features a Jacuzzi-style bath with shower attachment, low-level WC, vanity unit with inset wash basin, and part-tiled walls. Bedroom two overlooks the front terrace and gardens, while bedroom three benefits from a side window and two built-in wardrobes with shelving. The family shower room is fitted with a shower cubicle, concealed WC, vanity unit with inset basin, and tiled flooring.

Outside - Approached from a quiet village lane, a sweeping driveway with an initial gravelled parking area leads down to the bungalow, bounded by low stone walls. The setting is enhanced by delightful terraced gardens, with winding pathways and a fine collection of exotic and ornamental planting including fan palms, tree ferns, pencil cypress and cordyline. There is ample parking and turning space, together with a concealed oil tank and access to the detached garage, built of Hamstone beneath a tiled roof. The garage is fitted with power, light, a side window, and an up-and-over door, and adjoins a home office, also supplied with power and light, featuring pine-clad walls and ceiling.

From the side of the property, steps lead to a lower level where a versatile gym/studio is found, glazed on two sides and again connected with power and light, together with an adjoining cellar beneath the home office.

To the rear, a superb south-facing sun terrace offers an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, enclosed by wrought iron railings and equipped with external lighting. Steps descend to a lawned garden, beautifully landscaped with a wide variety of trees and shrubs, interspersed with statues and garden sculptures. To the south-east, a raised decking area and useful garden shed provide additional outside space, with steps leading down to a further lawned garden bordered by mature trees and shrubs, through which a pathway meanders.

In all, the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.62 acres, creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting.
