4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A truly unique, highly energy efficient, three-bedroom home with one-bed annexe in the heart of Langport, enjoying income-generating solar panels, ample garaging, and off-road parking. No onward chain.

Smartly converted from a pair of warehouses in 2009, At Rest is a highly individual home, stylishly blending contemporary living with character features, whilst boasting a high energy efficiency rating.

The principal building features two bedrooms on the ground floor, both good sized doubles with large built-in wardrobes; both enjoying en-suites. Bedroom One, the larger of the two rooms, benefits from a further cupboard which houses the gas-fired boiler, French doors leading out to the private courtyard-type part of the garden, whilst the en-suite features a panel bath, low-level WC and hand basin. Bedroom Two is laid to engineered oak flooring and its en-suite hosts a corner shower, low-level WC, and hand basin.

Stairs rise from the entrance porch betwixt the two bedrooms up into the middle of the superb, open-plan kitchen/dining/living room. The room boasts exposed timbers in the vaulted ceiling, which features a large roof lantern, flooding the room with light. Further windows and bi-fold doors add to this, creating a wonderfully bright and airy room. The room is nicely divided by the glass balustrades around the stairs and, like the remainder of the upstairs, is laid to solid American white oak flooring. The kitchen features a clean, modern range of wall and base units with granite worktops, four-ring gas hob with stainless steel splashback and chimney extractor, eye-level double oven/grill, integrated dishwasher, under-counter fridge, sink with grooved drainer, and breakfast bar.

Beyond the kitchen is a compact and highly useful utility room, with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble drier, and/or space for a further fridge/freezer. On from that is a Jack-and-Jill shower room, with corner cubicle, WC and hand basin, doubling as an en-suite for the third bedroom/study, also accessible off the kitchen. The room features a built-in wardrobe that acts as a pseudo-airing cupboard, due to housing the manifold for the underfloor heating.

ANNEXE

Just across from the main property is a self-contained coach house annexe, sitting above the garage. Accessed from the decking that connects the two properties, bi-fold doors open out into an attractive kitchen/dining/living space, that echoes the design of the main property, with solid American white oak flooring, exposed roof timbers, large windows and roof lantern. The kitchen is fitted with a matching range of units and granite tops, four-ring gas hob with stainless steel extractor, eye-level oven, integrated dishwasher, under-counter fridge, and single sink. A door leads through a corridor with an abundance of storage either side, in addition to space and plumbing for a washing machine, leading to the bedroom. A good sized double with vaulted ceiling and en-suite with corner shower, low-level WC and pedestal basin.

The front door for the main property is located on the ground floor, whilst steps rise to a large decking area which doubles as cover for the parking. The decking is covered with astroturf, providing a highly low-maintenance and private area to sit out on and enjoy. Underneath the decking are a pair of large wood stores, whilst there is additional power supply and dusk/dawn automatic lighting. To the side of the property is a long, courtyard-type space with a solid-fuel, insulated Amber hot tub at the end. Underneath the annexe is a large garage, equipped with a multitude of power outlets, gas-fired boiler for the annexe, in addition to a large set of timber doors that lead onto the road.
