Description

Property Description: Guide Price £475,000 - £500,000. Southdown House has a light and airy feeling and has well proportioned rooms creating a sense of peace and calm. This individual detached property has been transformed into a stylish modern property whilst retaining a feeling of traditional character with the sunny Mediterranean style private courtyard gardens offering a tranquil entertaining space. Viewing essential to really appreciate everything this house has to offer.

There are two reception rooms that flow into each other from the bright entrance hall. From here the well planned kitchen, with granite worktops and wood block, has a view to the front of the house and a stable door to the side garden, parking and garage.

The stylish dining room next to the kitchen has wooden floors and generous bookshelves with a glazed sliding door that leads out to one of the many sunny private areas in which to enjoy the garden. This leads into the comfortable sitting room with its stone fireplace and a continuation of the wooden floors, creating a feeling of flow and ease. There are French doors to the pretty secluded rear courtyard.

From the hallway there are a few stairs leading to the main bedroom which has an en-suite shower room as well as a separate cloakroom. There are two further bedrooms on another floor with the family bathroom and a useful study area tucked neatly under the stairs. There is a glazed door to a further terraced area which also has access to the lane at the side of the house and could (subject to planning) be separated to create ancillary accommodation for extra income or for a dependent relative.

Outside: Southdown House has plenty of parking to the front and side of the house as well as a double garage with an access door into the rear terraced courtyard, this could also make for an ideal workshop. The outside is beautifully landscaped and planted with mature trees and shrubs creating privacy. The sunny secluded courtyard gardens are full of olive trees, ferns and a stunning Magnolia Grandiflora in a large terracotta pot. With three different seating areas and French doors into the living and dining rooms, it makes an ideal house for entertaining.

Location: Westbury sub Mendip is a small rural village, located just 4 miles from Wells on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is a fabulous community run village stores with a cafe in the garden at the rear in which to meet friends or have a coffee. There is a popular village school as well as walks on your doorstep along the now disused railway line that ran through the village. The Strawberry Line (as it is known), is now a popular cycle route linking this southern side of the Mendips from Yatton to Wells and beyond. There are numerous fruit and vegetable market stalls found along this popular route in Draycott and Rodney Stoke towards Cheddar offering you the opportunity to buy from a local producer. Or if you are feeling more adventurous why not try the Mendip Gliding Club for spectacular views as you soar over the Somerset Levels from just above Draycott Steep or further walks right on the doorstep up through the Mendips and beyond including the impressive Cheddar Gorge. An easy drive to Wells with the benefit of regular bus services and only a short drive to Bristol Airport (approx. 12 miles)
