Property description A stunning family home set in the quiet backwater of Breach Hill with wonderful and far-reaching countryside views towards Blagdon Lake!
Stone built and detached, Star House was originally a public house which closed in the 1960's and which has now been totally renovated to create a beautiful, contemporary home set in a fabulous rural location, though close to the village of Chew Stoke and all the amenities to be enjoyed there. It offers fabulously flexible accommodation having a separate one-bedroom annexe – the Cottage.
Entering from the front garden via a porch into a large dining hall with a stone inglenook fireplace – a fabulous entertaining space and which leads to the heart of the home which is the large open plan kitchen, garden room and sitting room all of which benefit from underfloor heating. The kitchen has a range of high-quality wooden cabinetry, together with a huge central island and integral appliances. From here you head into the beautiful garden room with a wood burner, stylish tiled floor and those wonderful views! Leading from the kitchen also is the large - yet still cosy - sitting room with views to the front garden and French doors out to the rear garden.
To the side of the house is a spacious hallway with a useful shower room leading off and also a separate reception room together with a great sized boot room – here you will find lots of cupboards for coats and shoes and with its own access to the side of the house - a perfect staging post for muddy dogs, children and wellies!
Upstairs is equally impressive having four large bedrooms, two of which have their own stylish ensuites all leading from the large landing which has a fantastic range of built in cupboards. From here is access to the most amazing roof terrace – a perfect space to relax and soak up the idyllic location.
Outside is a double garage with a workshop/log store and separate garage area which is used as a gym by the present owners. There is ample parking for a number of cars.
There is a separate converted stone building with a large open plan family room, kitchen and shower room to the ground floor and a bedroom extending to the whole of the first floor. This building offers great flexibility for many uses including multi-generational living and is ideal for a dependent relative to live close by.
The large, tranquil garden wraps around the house and has many spaces of interest with lawned areas, mature borders, shrubs and trees as well as a vegetable garden. The garden affords stunning views – it's the perfect place to be amidst nature, absorb the surrounding countryside and enjoy spectacular sun sets!
