Description
A very attractive, substantial detached house nestling in its own grounds of 0.5 acre, adjoining open fields and lovely views.
The Property - This delightful home offers flexible accommodation with 4 to 6 bedrooms, 2 of which are on the second floor, enjoying lovely light and could suit an artist/painter (bedroom 5) and a work-from-home opportunity, as bedroom 6 is fitted with an extensive desk/work unit.
On the ground floor, there is a central reception hall, a charming large sitting room with an open fire, a generous kitchen/dining/family room, a utility area, a rear garden room/lobby and access to a large boot room which could be used as a separate study/playroom. The first floor offers 4 bedrooms, two of which are double aspect, a large en suite bathroom with a separate shower and a family bathroom.
Inside, the home boasts a wealth of period features that reflect its rich history, while also offering the potential for personalisation to suit contemporary tastes. The spacious layout allows for versatile living arrangements, making it an excellent choice for those who value both comfort and style.
Outside - This lovely house sits centrally in its own plot of 0.5 acre, with access via a gravelled driveway providing parking and turning area for several vehicles. This, in turn, leads to a double garage.
The formal gardens are located to the rear and eastern side of the house and are planted with a variety of shrubs, flowers, bushes and mature trees with pathways intermingling these areas, providing shade and sunlight. Predominantly, the gardens are south-facing.
To the west, the gardens are laid to grass with a small orchard area with fruit trees, a vegetable garden and utility area, all enjoying a very high degree of privacy and seclusion.
Situation - Located on Church Lane, this property benefits from easy access to local amenities and transport links, and offers fabulous views. Long Load is a popular South Somerset village, which mostly consists of individual properties, several cafes and two artisan bakeries. Facilities include the village hall and the well-patronised Long Sutton Golf Club (less than 1 mile distant). There are numerous walks to be had along the river and across the moors. The Devonshire Arms is nearby in Long Sutton, along with a church and a primary school.
The small historic town of Langport lies around 4 miles to the north west and benefits from independent stores, well-acclaimed schools including Huish Episcopi Academy, several cafés, and a Tesco Supermarket as well as the convenience of a doctor, dentist and veterinary surgery.
