Description

"Situated in the heart of the glorious Somerset countryside, Moorhouse is a handsome stone built property that offers the rare opportunity to purchase a period property that has been extensively and expertly renovated and refurbished. Situated within a charming sunny garden it offers a wonderful family home that is ready to move into and enjoy.

The date stone on the property, which was originally two attached cottages, is 1867 and there is evidence of this history within the home including stone mullion windows which are distinctive and charming.

As you enter the property, off the light and spacious entrance hall, there is a cleverly placed downstairs bedroom with ensuite shower room. This would provide ideal accommodation for a relative who needed to be based on the ground floor or to accommodate guests. On from the hallway to the right a beautiful triple aspect living room features attractive limestone flooring and a feature ham stone fireplace where a woodburning stove warms the room during cooler months.

Flowing on from the living room a fabulous bespoke kitchen by British interiors brand Neptune exudes quality and style while the dark blue four oven Aga punctuates the room. There is an excellent range of cupboards and drawers with feature bespoke tiling that has been handmade by our client. As you would expect in a kitchen of this standard everything that you might need is here including an induction hob, AEG oven, fridge and dishwasher. Within this spacious room there is plenty of room for a large dining table making entertaining a breeze. This room is perfect for absorbing the ebb and flow of busy family life.

The practicalities are catered for just adjacent to the kitchen where there is a utility room and a stable door leads out to a terrace area for enjoying alfresco dining.

On the first floor are three good sized double bedrooms, and a family bathroom. From bedroom 3 there is a staircase leading to bedroom 4, this would make an ideal bedroom for two children to share or as a bedroom on the higher level and dressing room below.

Moorhouse has many excellent features including limestone flooring to most rooms on the ground floor except 5th bedroom which has oak floorboards, kitchen fitted by Neptune, double glazed widows with stone lintels and oil fired central heating.
