A well-presented, extended and deceptively spacious period house, desirably situated within the heart of Wookey. Offering well-proportioned accommodation measuring in excess of 1900 Sq. Ft., this versatile home includes five bedrooms, three reception rooms, three bathrooms, a good size garden, off-road parking and a detached garage with a further room above. Viewings highly recommended. EPC rating D.
A door to the front of the property opens into an entrance porch, which has a borrowed light and an inner door opening into the sitting room. Forming part of the original section of the property, the sitting room is generous in size and includes two double glazed windows to the front, plus a stone fireplace with an open fire. A door from the sitting room encloses the staircase to the first floor accommodation. Beyond the sitting room is the dining room, which includes an opening to the kitchen, as well as access into an understairs cupboard and an inner hall, through to a ground floor double bedroom. For those not requiring five bedrooms, this room could equally be utilised as a home office, hobby space or children’s playroom.
Fitted with a range of matching floor and wall units, the kitchen offers plumbing for a freestanding dishwasher and space for an electric oven. Within the kitchen is a wood-burning stove offering a lovely focal point, an external door to the side, two skylight windows, plus access into a useful utility area and a downstairs shower room.
At the rear of the house is a fabulous extension, offering a spacious family room, complete with a set of patio doors opening out to the garden. Perfect for large families and for entertaining, this third reception room is dual-aspect and enjoys plenty of natural light. A second staircase from the family room then rises to the master bedroom, independent from the aforementioned first floor. This superb room also looks out across the rear garden and includes a well-appointed en-suite shower room.
The main first floor provides three further bedrooms; two doubles and a good size single. In addition, there is another shower room located on this level, fitted with a matching white suite and including a heated towel rail.
The configuration of the accommodation affords purchasers with much flexibility and is ideally set up for those with older children or dependent relatives.
Outside
To the rear of the property, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and is enclosed by walling and fencing with established shrub borders. A separate gated side pathway, shared with the neighbouring property, then gives access on foot to the off-road parking area, located in front of the garage and approached from North Road.
The garage is an excellent size (18’11’’ x 13’8’’) and much like the rear extension on the property, has been attractively faced in stone. To the front of the garage is an ‘up and over’ door, and there is both a window to the rear and a personal door to the side, conveniently opening directly into the garden. An internal staircase then continues up to a first floor room, which has four skylight windows.
The highly sought-after village of Wookey is located only a few minutes’ drive into the centre of Wells. Wookey has three public houses, a church, a ‘Good’ Ofsted rated primary school, a recreation ground/children’s play park and The Wookey Hub (café and coffee shop). There are easy road connections to Cheddar and the A38 beyond which gives access to the M5 motorway, Bristol Airport and the City of Bristol.
Wells is only a short distance away, renowned for its beautiful period architecture with landmarks such as the Cathedral and the Bishop's Palace. There are many clubs and societies to get involved with, and the city boasts a fine range of shopping, recreational, educational and commercial facilities. The sought-after Saxon village of Wedmore, offering independent boutique-style shops and several good eateries, is less than seven miles to the west.
