Description
A deceptively spacious and enviably positioned four bedroom detached house with double garage, off-road parking, pretty garden and situated in the highly desirable village of Over Stratton. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, dining room, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory and WC to the ground floor with four bedrooms (one ensuite) and a family bathroom to the first floor. In excellent condition throughout, Netherland also provides the perfect blank canvas to stamp one’s own design aspirations on. With over 1,400 sq ft of accommodation, there is no shortage of space and flexibility. The kitchen/breakfast room is well-fitted with all mod cons and can easily accommodate a good size dining table. It has the added advantage of leading straight through to conservatory which allows plenty of light and access to the garden. The large sitting room is a relaxing space to enjoy throughout the seasons, especially through the colder months thanks to a wood-burner which offers an attractive focal point and practical source of heat. Those who enjoy more formal entertaining will appreciate the separate dining room. There are three double bedrooms to the first floor with the master having the luxury of its own ensuite. The remaining bedrooms are all serviced by the family bathroom. It should be noted that although bedroom four could house a single bed, it would be much better suited as a home study, ideal for those needing to work from home. This really is a fabulous house in a great setting and whether you’re a family, recently retired or simply want idyllic village life, it must be seen.
Over Stratton is a pretty village situated about 1 mile south of South Petherton with its village pub and restaurant. South Petherton is a small residential country town with a village atmosphere, set in attractive surrounding countryside, and has been recently voted the second best village in the country to bring up a family. Offering a wide range of shopping facilities, a day centre, two schools, Library, inn, bank, post office, churches, doctor and veterinary surgeries, chemist, tennis and bowling clubs along with bus services to neighbouring towns and villages. Yeovil is circa 10 miles, Crewkerne circa 6 miles (mainline station to Waterloo) Ilminster 6 miles and the county town of Taunton 18 miles with its M5 connection at junction 25 and mainline station to Paddington.
The property is approached by a private, gated driveway leading to off-road parking and access to the detached double garage. The private rear garden is laid to lawn and patio and further complemented by mature shrubs. It’s a great setting for alfresco dining, sitting out in the warmer months and enjoying with friends and family. Those with children and/or pets will appreciate it is also fully enclosed.
