Whitehall, South Petherton TA13

A unique and individual home in one of our most sought-after villages, beautifully marrying character and contemporary styling.

The Property

For those seeking a truly unique home, this remarkable property has been completely reimagined by its current owner. From an existing residence, it has been transformed into a private, secure, and impressive living space. Ideally situated just a short walk from the charming village centre with all amenities within easy reach, it also lies a stone's throw from open fields and countryside walks. Perfect for those looking for a "lock up and leave" lifestyle or a low-maintenance outdoor space, the home boasts a sun-soaked southerly aspect at the rear and a layout designed for effortless entertaining with family and friends.

Accommodation

The thoughtful use of materials such as Bath stone, oak, and glass throughout the property creates a sense of warmth and character. Every corner features a striking design element, adding to the home's unique charm. Underfloor heating extends across both the ground and first-floor living areas, ensuring a sleek, modern aesthetic while offering greater flexibility for furniture placement.

Upon arrival, the entrance vestibule immediately sets the tone with its elegant stone flooring and internal walls. An oak door leads into the integral double garage, which has been upgraded with quarry-tiled flooring and an internal partition, allowing each section to be used independently while retaining the convenience of electric-powered garage doors. The first section doubles as a secondary utility area, offering space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a plant room at the rear, and a separate laundry cupboard with radiator. The larger second section of garage provides rear access to the garden and houses the wall-mounted gas central heating boiler. Additionally, the vendors have installed an external power point at the rear of the garage, making it easier for future owners to switch to an Air Source heating system if desired.

In the hallway, the vendors have incorporated a well-designed ground-floor shower room, ensuring added convenience for the future. Beautifully finished, it features a contemporary suite with a generous shower and dual-head controls, a wall-hung washbasin, and a WC.

At the rear of the property, the kitchen and breakfast room benefit from an abundance of natural light, with doors opening directly onto the garden. This space seamlessly extends into the adjoining garden room, which features a vaulted ceiling and bi-fold doors on two sides, allowing for a fluid indoor-outdoor connection. The garden room also serves as a potential formal dining area if preferred. Thoughtfully designed, the kitchen boasts an impressive bespoke central island, complementary sage green cabinetry, granite worktops, and a stunning aga for that "heart of the home" feeling. The adjoining room next door with its walk-in pantry accommodates most of the integrated appliances, including an electric oven, microwave, coffee machine, full-length fridge, and matching freezer, as well as a convenient secondary sink in one corner.

The spacious dual-aspect living room at the front of the house provides ample flexibility for furniture arrangements, whether incorporating a dining table or opting for an oversized seating area. A flush-fitted media wall fire / virtual aquarium serves as a hassle free focal point and conversation starter.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing is particularly impressive, featuring a vaulted ceiling with large Velux window providing plenty of natural light from above, and a section of glass flooring that enhances the brightness of the space.

The master bedroom, positioned at the front of the house, is generously proportioned and was intentionally designed to be split into two rooms if desired. Its dual-aspect windows and spacious layout would allow for easy reconfiguration, potentially creating a fourth bedroom and an additional family bathroom. As it stands, it is a luxurious master suite with built-in wardrobes and a private en suite shower room.

Two further double bedrooms each have their own high-quality en suite shower rooms. The second bedroom is particularly striking, featuring two balconies, including a glass Juliet balcony that overlooks the adjoining fields. Engineered oak flooring extends throughout the first floor, creating a cohesive and elegant finish.

Outside

Approached via secure electric gates, with a telecom entry system the generous driveway provides plentiful off road parking and turning space for several vehicles along with access to the integral double garage if required. There is access to the rear on both sides of the house, with a particularly sizeable gravelled garden on the east side offering ample scope for keen gardeners to create further garden should they wish. Across the rear the garden has a Mediterranean feel with its southerly aspect and paved sun terrace. Raised beds provide scope to grow your own with the minimum of fuss.
