Shipham, BS25 1SA

DESCRIPTION

This light, spacious property surprises you from the moment you step

over the threshold! From the outside there is little suggestion of the

extensive open plan family room/master suite occupying the entire

length of the first floor; or the 29' sitting room spanning the width of

the property with patio doors opening into the back garden. With fabulous views, an easy to maintain garden, and situated in a quiet

location at the end of the cul-de-sac in this thriving village

community, it's no wonder the vendors have been here for the last 22

years!

The unassuming front door opens into a bright modern entrance hall

with a stunning oak and glass staircase. On the ground floor the hall

leads past three good size double bedrooms which share a modern family bathroom fitted with both a bath and a shower. Follow the hall

to the end and you step into the triple aspect, light and open living

room, with patio doors opening onto the rear garden and overlooking

fields with views out to the coast. As this room spans the entire width

of the property there is ample space for a good size family dining

table as well as comfy chairs and sofas around the fireplace. The

original kitchen hatch, between the dining area and the kitchen, hints

at the property's 1970s origins, but the kitchen today is fitted out with a breakfast bar and modern range of base and eyelevel units housing

‘Bosch’ appliances. As with so many of the rooms you are drawn

immediately to the views from the windows, and the kitchen is no

exception, even washing up would be a pleasure as you look out over

fields! The back door accesses the kitchen and the extensive utility,

once a single garage, now an invaluable room with a sink, plumbing

for a washing machine and lots of storage space and room for muddy

boots/pets/outdoor equipment or anything else busy family life brings with it.

Take the stairs up to the first floor and you will be astonished by the

fabulous open plan, flexible living space spanning the entire property.

At one end there are French doors to a balcony where you can sit out

and enjoy uninterrupted views across to Wales. At the other end there

is a picture window framing the village roof tops and hills beyond. In

the centre there is a study area and a contemporary shower room. The current vendors use this space as a family chilling out area for when

the grandchildren come to stay. It could easily be transformed into a

master suite or even two bedrooms without compromising the light

open stairwell, landing and study area. The property is warmed by gas

central heating and benefits from solar panels generating

approximately £1,800 pa.

Outside, the property is approached by a tarmac and gravelled driveway, with parking for several cars. There is gated access on both

sides of the property to the rear garden which is laid mainly to lawn

with established shrub beds and a garden shed.

DIRECTIONS Taking the A38 south from the Churchill traffic lights continue up the

hill passing the turning on your left for Rowberrow, take the next left

into Shipham just after the petrol station. Just after the entrance for the village hall on your right you will find Beech Road on your left.

Number 45 is the last property at the top on the left hand side. You

are welcome to park on the drive.

SITUATION Shipham is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a

highly sought after village, nestled in the picturesque Somerset countryside. It is well served by first, middle and senior schools and is

much sought after by those commuting to Bristol, as it offers all the

advantages of rural living with many bridleways and footpaths,

including the West Mendip Way which crosses the parish providing

ready access to the hills and Mendip plateau, where there are

extensive views across the Bristol Channel to the Welsh coast and

Brecon Beacons beyond. Indeed, it is very well positioned for local

transport links and the M5 motorway which is accessible via junction 20 at Clevedon, junction 21 at St Georges and junction 22 at

Edithmead. Village facilities are available, including butcher/stores,

garage, public house, hotel and further shopping facilities at nearby

Winscombe and Cheddar. The new village hall (with its stage, sports

hall, function rooms and kitchen) is a popular centre for a broad range

of community events and activities for all ages. Private sector

schooling is close by at Sidcot and the Downs School at Wraxall is

within easy reach, as are Wells Cathedral School and Millfield. In the state sector, Kings of Wessex School (www.kowessex.co.uk) is nearby

and for sports and recreational amenities, Churchill Academy is a drive

away. The surrounding area is excellent riding country and is sure to

appeal to equestrian enthusiasts and walkers. There is an international

airport at Lulsgate and access to the mainline railway station at Yatton.

EPC rating B

Our vendor says ... We love this spot, the views are amazing and

we love the fact you can walk out of your front door and out onto The Mendips without having to get in your car.

We have noticed ... This is such a tranquil location but within

easy access of the heart of the community where you can find the

First School, village shop and butchers, pub, community run cafe,

church, and village hall.
