A splendid opportunity to purchase a substantial four bedroom detached family home offering 2000 sq. Ft (185 sq. M) of living space, sitting in around half an acre of grounds and enjoying a lane side position in the picturesque village of Charlton Musgrove. The village lies in a most beautiful part of Somerset, not far from the Stourhead Estate and just over two miles from the towns of Bruton and Wincanton, where there is a selection of independent shops and supermarkets, entertainment and good independent, and local schools. The village itself has a vibrant community spirit with many events taking place in the area and at the village hall, which is available for hosting many types of functions. There is also a public house and two churches. Nearby, attractions in Bruton include the world famous Hauser and Wirth Art Gallery and the award winning At The Chapel restaurant.

The property makes an ideal home for an existing or growing family and boasts four reception rooms, offering ample space for family and guests. The addition of a garden room to the side has created that extra wow to the property and will certainly continue to be the hub of the household for future residents. A magnificent place to spend a rainy day or enjoying an evening meal with friends and family. For the summer months, the terrace to the side of the garden room provides plenty of space to host gatherings or a peaceful spot to catch up your book. The magical gardens provide a great space for children and pets to play safe and free. There is the opportunity to explore self-reliance with vegetable gardens and even a small livestock area. On a practical note, the property is equipped with solar and water panels, promoting sustainability and reducing your carbon footprint and bills.

This home offers endless possibilities and must be viewed to fully appreciate all that it has to offer - book a viewing now - properties of this calibre in this location don't often become available.

Double timber gates from the lane open to a large tarmacadam drive with ample room for multiple vehicles, boat, caravan, horse box or motor home and leads up to the double garage.

Formal Gardens
The gardens are beautifully landscaped with many features. The current owner have made a delightful children's hideaway area - affectionately called the Gruffalo garden, the front garden is laid to lawn and planted with shrubs and trees that form an arch to the other part of the front garden. To the side of the house there is a large paved area that is ideal for alfresco entertaining and comes with a covered seating and bar area plus a further outbuilding that offers great development opportunities - hobbies room, work from home space or home gym. A gate opens to the rear garden - again, this has been attractively landscaped and has a large storage shed, feature well and gate to the drive.

The Paddock
From the carport a metal gate opens to further space that provides a whole host of opportunities. Currently divided into different areas - part is laid to grass with a hen house, an enclosed vegetable garden and a small wooded area. There is also a further metal framed outbuilding that may be used for a variety of purposes. The paddock backs onto pastureland.

The property sits in grounds extending to a little over half an acre.
