Blencanthra is a beautifully presented four/five bedroom Edwardian detached house set within a large mature plot with countryside views, and situated in a quiet location close to the centre of Chilcompton.
About the property:
Blencanthra is a beautifully presented detached Edwardian house offering well proportioned accommodation full of period features and set within a generous plot bordering open countryside. The property has a large kitchen opening into a bright dining area, three further reception rooms, one of which is currently set up as a guest bedroom, utility room and downstairs shower room, while upstairs offers four bedrooms and a lovely family bathroom, all enjoying wonderful views. The double garage includes a useful storage area, and the garden, mainly laid to lawn benefits from an above ground pool, private terrace and a studio heated by a woodburning stove.
About the inside:
The front door opens into a light entrance hall with the stairs rising to the first floor. A door to the right leads into a peaceful sitting room with an original square bay window to the front, high ceilings and a beautiful period fireplace with marble surround. A further dual aspect reception room, currently being used as a guest bedroom, also enjoys an open fireplace with marble surround. The generously proportioned kitchen/family room has a range of pale timber units, electric oven and hob and space for a range cooker. This opens into the triple aspect vaulted dining area which has French doors opening onto the terrace, perfect for entertaining.
Through the utility area a rear hall leads to the downstairs shower room, back door, and the third reception room which benefits from bi-fold doors opening onto the garden and lovely views across the garden to the countryside beyond.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys a square bay window overlooking the front, and a decorative period fieplace. There is a further dual aspect double bedroom to the front with sash windows, while two smaller bedrooms make the most of the views to the rear. The family bathroom has a white suite and a separate shower, and a large sash window allows for stunning views from the bathtub.
About the outside:
Approached through a five bar gate the driveway leads to the double garage, with two up and over doors, and a covered porch shelters the back door, providing a useful storage area for logs and wellies. Mature trees and shrubs border the front lawn giving a degree of privacy. The rear garden is manly laid to lawn and offers a well established vegetable garden with greenhouse, large terrace for al fresco dining, above ground swimming pool, and room for a trampoline tucked down the side. A large timber studio makes an ideal work from home office or playroom, heated by a little woodburning stove. The verandah houses a wooden hot tub and a fun crows nest built around the tree offers exceptional views of the countryside. A beech hedge separates the garden from the open fields beyond.
