A deceptively spacious and versatile five bedroom detached family home, set within a private plot of over half an acre on the fringes of this highly sought-after Somerset village.

The plot further benefits from two useful outbuildings: a high quality garden studio (17'8" x 17'8") formerly used as a golf simulator, but offering excellent potential as a home office, gym, or creative space, and a separate store found off the front drive (16'7" x 14'4"), — together adding valuable additional space beyond the footprint of the main house. Ample off road parking is found at the front of the plot upon a tarmac driveway, before double wooden gates lead into a gravel pathway through the attractive front gardens, which a...
