Mudgley Cross Roads, Mudgley, Wedmore, BS28

Beautiful, spacious, contemporary, open-plan, five-bedroom, semi-detached home, with unassuming façade, perched on the hillside with breath-taking, panoramic views.

This extraordinary property gives little away from the front. Once inside, the thoughtful design, quality finish and modern colour palette is unexpected and an absolute delight, with large picture windows positioned to frame the stunning views and to flood the rooms with natural light. Throughout the property, function and style combine to create an extremely desirable home.

The sympathetic, full-width extension across the back of the house, with its fabulous lantern skylights, bifold doors, and picture window, is the hub of this home. Natural limestone tiles, over underfloor heating, run the length of the room from the kitchen at one end to the dining and living area at the other, and also through the utility. The kitchen is fitted with Quantum kitchen units in dark green topped with contrasting quartz worksurfaces including a breakfast bar, and there is a large Rangemaster cooker and an integrated dishwasher and fridge. An oak door opens to reveal a bespoke, handmade, walk-in pantry. Further space for storage and appliances can be found in the adjacent utility room. This kitchen/living space extension also provides ample room for a large dining table, comfortable seating and other furniture. Three-meter bifold doors slide back to extend the sociable living area out into the level garden with countryside views beyond. A separate sitting room offers a cosier retreat for cooler months with a feature fireplace with attractive exposed brickwork. The ground floor also houses a double bedroom with underfloor heating and built-in wardrobe, and an adjacent shower room and WC.

Upstairs there are three further double bedrooms and a single room, currently used as a study. Not only does the principal bedroom have an ensuite shower room and a built-in wardrobe, but it has an incredible picture window with far-reaching views. The three other bedrooms share a large family bathroom with separate bath, shower cubicle, wash-hand basin and WC. The landing is fitted with oak cupboards with seating area and benefits from an impressive window stretching to the floor, framing countryside views.

Outside, the large front garden is a blank canvass mainly laid to lawn with a gated driveway. There is plenty of space for a keen gardener to make their mark; for children’s outdoor activities; or for parking for multiple vehicles. A pathway to the side of the house accesses the rear garden where limestone terracing runs across the back of the extension providing a tranquil space to sit back, relax and enjoy those outstanding views.
