The Dwelling - This family house sits in a wonderful plot on the edge of Marnhull giving verdant views over the Blackmore Vale to the South-West. The gardens are highly generous in size and boast expansive level lawns. The reception space includes a front to back living room with an open plan dining room and also leads to the conservatory and garden beyond.
Upstairs gives four good sized bedrooms with the main bedroom having an en suite shower room and a separate family bathroom.
A great addition to the house is the glazed front porch giving ample further space.
Accommodation - See Floor Plan. Outbuilding not measured.
Outside - To the front of the house is plenty of parking for up to 6 cars and the single integral garage to the side. The enclosed large level gardens lie to the south of the house with extensive views over the Blackmore Vale beyond.
Outside of the utility room is a productive area for vegetables behind a picket fence. The Summer House is just beyond the vegetable patch along the path which also leads along to a large tarmacadam area with the large shed. Double gates provide access to the bridleway behind the high perimeter fence. This area has a multitude of uses from sports to hard standing storage.
Up at the house, from the conservatory and living room, is a large patio terrace. With vistas to the south-west over the lawned garden, it is ideal with a BBQ area or access to the side gate to the parking to the front.
