Babcary, Somerton

Set back from the quiet village road, the property has been extensively improved and extended in recent years and offers generous and versatile accommodation, including five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The house benefits from double glazing, LED lighting, oil-fired central heating and photovoltaic solar panels. The ground floor provides a welcoming entrance hall, a large triple-aspect sitting room and an excellent open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, together with a separate utility room. The first floor has a galleried landing, five good-sized bedrooms, an en-suite bathroom and walk-in dressing room to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom.
The front door, sheltered by a porch, opens into the spacious entrance hall with attractive oak flooring, which continues through into the kitchen and dining area.
The open-plan kitchen/dining/family room is a particular feature of the property, with a double aspect creating a light and airy space with plenty of room for both dining and comfortable seating. The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of units, an island and oak work surfaces, together with two-bowl sinks, tiled surrounds and integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, fridge freezer, Bosch oven and AEG induction hob with extractor.
Doors lead directly to the garden, while the adjoining utility room has fitted units, a work surface and a sink, with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer and a door providing access to the garage. The sitting room is a generous and bright triple-aspect room with French doors opening onto the garden and an attractive stone fireplace housing a Charnwood wood-burning stove.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom includes a useful walk-in wardrobe area and an en-suite bathroom with a bath and shower over, washbasin and WC. There are four further well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom with bath, separate shower cubicle, wash basin and WC. The accommodation offers considerable flexibility for family living, guests or home working.
Outside, the property is approached via a driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles and leading to a neat lawned front garden, with a paved path continuing around the side to a useful log store. A second driveway leads alongside the house and through double gates to the rear garden, providing additional parking and access to the double garage, which has an electric up-and-over door. The rear garden has been attractively landscaped and includes a paved patio, lawn, established flower beds, vegetable-growing area, garden shed and a magnificent mature oak tree. There is a footpath immediately adjacent, providing access to the surrounding countryside and local walks.
