Cheddar Road, Wedmore, BS28

On an enviable elevated plot with spectacular views, this beautiful, three double bedroom, stone-built Victorian home, retaining many original features, benefits from lovely gardens, double garage and ample parking.

Teachers House is believed to date back to 1878 and was originally part of the village school. As such, it retains much of the character of that period, including stone mullion windows, high ceilings and exposed beams. The property was sympathetically converted in 1993 into one of four individually designed family homes and combines modern comforts, such as gas central heating and double glazing, with the charm of a bygone era. The large kitchen, with its beams, red brick fireplace with log burning stove, and tiled floor is a welcoming hub to this home. The kitchen is fitted with a range of shaker-style wall and base units, with integrated dishwasher, microwave, electric double oven and gas hob, and there is ample room for a farmhouse kitchen table, dresser and other furniture. A utility, at the far end of the property, offers further storage, space and plumbing for other appliances. The smaller of the two reception rooms, currently used as a snug, is filled with light from the beautiful, ornate mullioned windows which look out over the gardens with stunning countryside views beyond. The larger, well-proportioned, sitting room also looks across the gardens, and features a fireplace with log burning stove. The ground floor also benefits from a cloakroom and a home office which adjoins the utility.

Upstairs, all three of the double bedrooms and the landing enjoy fabulous, panoramic rural views. Each bedroom has its own character and charm. The spacious principal bedroom has an ensuite shower room, a bank of fitted wardrobes and some eaves storage. The other two double bedrooms share a family bathroom.

Outside

Teachers House is the last one of four beautiful, terraced homes which make up the old schoolhouse. A shared driveway sweeps past the other homes to this property’s private plot and double garage. Extensive, landscaped gardens with flower beds, mature shrubs and trees add colour and texture to large expanses of lawn. Paved terraces offer enviable entertaining and relaxing areas from which to enjoy the extraordinary views.

Agent’s Note

Private drainage is shared between the four properties. The sewage plant is located in the field opposite. Please ask agent for further information.
