Location
Lympsham is a popular village in a rural location between Western super Mare and Burnham on Sea. It has many charms, including architecturally interesting buildings, steeped in history and local facilities, including shop, caf , tennis club, cricket club, junior school, and nursery, along with a village hall, and church. The proximity to an expansive beach at Burnham and Brean is a real plus, especially for winter walks, and there is a highly rated, links, championship golf course at Burham and Berrow.
The property is down a charming, no through lane, which is extremely quiet, on the periphery of the village. To the north and east, there are far reaching views over open countryside to the Mendips in the distance.
Description
A stunning, edge of village property that ticks all the boxes. Originally thought to be one of the oldest farmhouses in Lympham, the house has been totally renovated, refurbished and extended to create a superb home with high specification interiors including a bespoke kitchen, engineered oak floors throughout the level, ground floor, air source heat pump and under floor heating, high specification, solid, hardwood external windows and doors, oak internal doors, matching, high specification bathrooms with vanity units and sensor lighting.
The sympathetic renovation has retained and enhanced elements of the original property with reclaimed brick chimney breasts, alcoves and cast iron fireplaces in the bedrooms, blending contemporary, modern comforts with echoes of the past.
The garden also retains this authentic charm with mature shrubs, fruit trees and great privacy.
Accommodation
The front door opens to an open plan reception hall snug.
The snug has a wood burning stove. A door leads to the side hall, where there is plenty of space for coats and boots, from here an exterior door leads to the drive and the cloakroom is to the left.
The magnificent kitchen dining living room, is very much the heart of this home. It draws you, through a set of glazed, bifold doors, to the elegant terrace and charming gardens beyond.
The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with NEF integrated appliances including an induction, 5 ring hob, extractor, eyelevel, double oven microwave, dishwasher, full height fridge, and in the utility room, matching full height, integrated freezer, and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The painted units in the utility room match those in the kitchen and they are a classic, timeless style, with pale, Quartz worksurface. The worksurface extends to a breakfast bar by the sink.
A second wood burning stove is a focal point for a cosy seating area, and the room flows into a spectacular sun room dining area which opens, via the bifolds, to the terrace and garden. Above, an attractive roof lantern is a striking feature, flooding this superb room with warmth and natural light.
The sitting room is to the left of the reception hall, again it is spacious and bright with two large windows with far reaching views over farmland.
Beyond this is a very generous ground floor bedroom and ensuite bathroom with bath and large shower.
Upstairs there are 3 further bedrooms, all with super views, one has an ensuite shower room and there is a spacious family bathroom with contemporary, freestanding bath and separate shower.
Outside
Double timber gates, open to a blockwork driveway flanked by a floral border stocked with mature roses. The drive leads to a garage and storeroom. A doggie shower room is a handy addition for those with canine friends or muddy boots.
The garden extends to the north and wraps around the east to the south side of the house. There is a small, fenced paddock, currently pasture, to the east of the garden, ideal for chickens and other livestock. A block paved path leads around the house to a paved terrace in the south, outside the dining room, a perfect place for outdoor seating. The garden is very private and enclosed from the drive by a timber fence with a garden gate.
