Sellers insight
We have loved our time at Orchard View and have had 15 wonderful years to enjoy the peace and tranquillity here. It feels very rural, but it is only minutes away from the A38 which provides easy access to Taunton or Bridgwater and not to forget the lovely town of North Petherton.
As developer this property was created with love to meet the needs of a family with lots of hidden extras built in.
The large kitchen /living space has been our favourite area of the barn especially in the summer months when we open up the large bifold doors to the stunning panoramic views.
Whilst Orchard View is very private it is also nice to know there are friendly neighbours nearby which gives it a community feel.
Step inside
High vaulted ceilings, Velux windows, and exposed beams create an impressive sense of height and space throughout Orchard View. Underfloor heating (with individual zone controls) adds warmth beneath your feet, enhancing comfort across the home.
At its heart lies the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room, an exceptional space where hardwood bifold doors frame views of the landscaped gardens and the Blackdown Hills beyond.
The beautifully equipped kitchen features Neff ovens, warming drawers, a central island with a hot water tap, and ample workspace, ideal for everyday living or entertaining. At one end, a cosy seating area with a clear glass wood burner offers a secluded retreat, perfect for relaxing in all seasons.
A generous sitting room with large windows and a wood burner offers a warm and welcoming space to relax, while a separate study provides the perfect spot to tuck yourself away in peace and quiet.
All four bedrooms are generous doubles, but the principal suite truly stands out, a beautifully appointed room with a luxurious en-suite shower room. Bedroom two also benefits from its own en-suite, while the remaining rooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.
Step outside
Gps-operated remote-controlled gates open onto a sweeping driveway that leads to a spacious parking area. Adjacent sits a double wooden carport with an adjoining workshop/store, complete with electricity and water connections.
Steps lead to the front of the barn, where beautifully landscaped gardens frame far-reaching countryside views. A generous patio area adjoins the kitchen/family room via bifold doors, perfect for outdoor dining and enjoying the peaceful setting.
The gardens are beautifully landscaped, featuring well-stocked flower borders and a rich variety of mature shrubs, trees, and bushes. A dedicated outdoor kitchen and a designated area for a hot tub provide the perfect setting for entertaining or unwinding, set against a backdrop of your own paddock and far-reaching countryside views.
To the side, a generous lawned area is bordered by a beautiful stone wall, offering both privacy and the perfect space for vegetable and fruit beds. A potting shed and useful garden store are a useful addition for any gardening enthusiast. To the rear of the barn, an additional large patio area enjoys direct access to a well. Ideal for keeping the garden flourishing throughout the seasons.
The adjoining 1.6-acre paddock is perfectly positioned to provide uninterrupted enjoyment of the surrounding views. Access is available from the driveway via a neighbouring orchard, with additional vehicular access gained from a rear shared entrance. A neighbouring property benefits from a vehicular right of way across the paddock to reach their own small orchard.
