5 bed detached house for sale

Hill Lane, Brent Knoll, Highbridge, Somerset TA9

Available with no onward chain.

Set in an elevated position on the slopes of Brent Knoll with sweeping views across open countryside, this handsome detached home has been cherished by the same family for 25 years. During that time, it has been thoughtfully extended and upgraded, including a kitchen remodel and renovation, addition of a bright conservatory and a summer house in the landscaped gardens.

Approached via a long private drive, the house stands prominently within its plot. The accommodation is set over two floors and offers five bedrooms, a double garage and various outbuildings.

A broad entrance hall leads to a bright, dual aspect sitting room with a log-burning stove and impressive west facing bay window with fantastic countryside views. There is a separate dining room with access to the patio to the front of the house. The current owners have added a conservatory, on the southly aspect, which enjoys panoramic garden views. The heart of the house is the open-plan kitchen/breakfast room with views over the rear garden, fitted with bespoke cabinetry, a central island and an Aga. There is a well-equipped utility with internal access to the double garage, and cloakroom alongside.

Upstairs are five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite has a luxurious en-suite bath and shower room which benefits from dual aspect rural views. Two further bedrooms also enjoy en-suite facilities and have lovely west facing views at the front of the home. The remaining bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a home office, share a smart family bathroom.

Outside
The landscaped gardens are a true highlight, with mature planting and a generous terrace for outdoor entertaining. There are outbuilings on the plot including: A summer house, with electricity and water supply which overlooks the pond; a stable and store which is currently used as additional storage space.
There is additional land, of approximately 7 acres, at the rear of the property which is available by separate negotiation.

Brent Knoll is one of Somerset's most sought-after villages, with a well-regarded primary school, church, community shop and a popular pub. The setting feels wonderfully rural yet is only minutes from the M5 and fast links to Bristol, Bath and the coast.
