THE PROPERTY Liston House is a handsome detached home which has newly been built to a high specification. Occupying an easily accessible plot within Sparkford village, this individually constructed home benefits from quality fixtures and fittings which create a fresh, contemporary atmosphere throughout whilst ensuring that the needs of the busy modern lifestyle are effortlessly met. The property is decorated internally using a warm palette of colours and neutrals with floor coverings carefully selected to suit the use of each room, from the luxurious carpeting throughout the sitting room and bedrooms to the attractive yet forgiving wood-effect flooring used in the entrance hall, kitchen and utility room. Built to a 'Passive House' specification, the property benefits from a variety of energy-saving measures including high levels of insulation, air-tight double glazed windows and doors and photovoltaic panels generating electricity for use within the house. An additional element of 21st century convenience is provided with Sky TV points in each bedroom as well as in the principal rooms downstairs, and many of the plug sockets are equipped with USB ports. Internally, the accommodation is laid out in a simple, classical layout. Entering the property through the front door, you are met with a spacious and welcoming entrance hall from which stairs rise to the first floor, beneath which is a useful coat- and shoe cupboard. A door to the left leads into a relaxing sitting room which, with windows to three aspects including double doors leading directly to the garden and a free standing, contemporary log burner, is a delightfully light and airy room capable of offering comfortable surroundings in all seasons. Opposite is the kitchen/dining room which has been thoughtfully fitted with a range of contemporary wall and base units, offering a variety of cupboards and built-in larder solutions as well as integrated appliances including a Neff dishwasher, oven and grill, fridge/freezer and electric hob. Space is available for a family dining table within this room, creating a friendly, sociable atmosphere within this attractive room. The kitchen is supported by an adjoining utility room which benefits from a door leading to the parking area. Featuring fitted units including cupboard space and a sink with spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer, this room not only enables laundry and cooking facilities to be kept separate but also provides an excellent point of entry to the property with wet and muddy shoes or dogs. Also on the ground floor, and accessed via the entrance hallway, is a cloakroom. On the first floor, four spacious bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, from which a shelved linen cupboard can also be accessed. The three largest bedrooms benefit from double proportions and built-in wardrobe, with the fourth bedroom ideal for use as a generous single or occasional double room. Alternatively, this room could be re-purposed for use as a home office, hobby room, den or study if desired. Of particular note is the Master bedroom which further benefits from an en suite shower room. The family bathroom can also be found on the first floor which exhibits a modern yet luxurious finish with a fitted contemporary suite comprising bath with shower over, WC, wash hand basin and heated towel rail. OUTSIDE Liston House stands centrally within an easily managed plot which is divided into areas of garden and gravelled parking. Located primarily to the side of the house, the garden has been seeded for a lawn, and a beech hedge has been planted which, when matured, will effectively screen the house and lawn from the public road. This will create a garden offering maximum enjoyment without the need for large amounts of maintenance, although there remains scope for further landscaping if desired. The parking area is accessed via a tarmac driveway, leading around the side of the property to space at the rear for several vehicles.
