4 bedroom house

Coombe barn is situated in a beautiful and peaceful rural setting almost at the end of a no through lane surrounded by unspoilt countryside, about two miles south of Blagdon village, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, just off the Mendip approach to Wells.

It was originally bought as a redundant barn and completely rebuilt from the ground, in the 1980s for a then well-respected local developer for his own occupation. The present owners purchased the property in 2012 updating the barn to a very high standard, to meet 21st century living. The majority or windows were replaced, new floors laid, light oak doors installed and a log burning stove fitted in the kitchen/breakfast and sitting room. Since 2017 all bath and shower rooms have been expensively replaced with contemporary suites and an excellent bespoke kitchen installed with integrated appliances, Rangemaster cooker and central island with breakfast bar. The light, comfortable and very attractive interior now blends perfectly with the traditional and has a warm and friendly atmosphere.

The sitting room has a stone chimney breast and fireplace fitted with a log burning stove and a French door opens into the garden room. The kitchen/breakfast room is open plan with a sitting area and brick fireplace fitted with a log burning stove and log store.

The four bedroom first floor accommodation is very versatile and is accessed over three staircases. One staircase in the side entrance rises to a suite including a living room/kitchenette, bedroom and en suite bathroom, making it ideal for use as an AirBnB, or dual occupancy if required. Another staircase leads to a bedroom which is open plan with interconnecting separate study and dressing room areas. The main staircase in the sitting room leads to the principal bedroom suite, a second bedroom and family bath/shower room.

Garden and grounds
Approached through double timber gates and over a cattle grid to a parking area, there is an integral double garage in front with two up and over electrically operated doors. Immediately in front of the barn and garden room is a paved area ideal for entertaining, bordered by raised stone beds planted with shrubs. Stone steps lead up to the delightful south facing and well maintained gardens with ornamental pond. There is an expanse of level lawn and shaped borders well planted with a variety of shrubs and plants. To the west of the drive is a level paddock amounting to about 0.75 acres with separate vehicular access to the lane.

About 100 yards from the property, along a green lane in a lovely rural setting, is a 3.69 acres field, with lake views, and an excellent timber built stable with two loose boxes, hay store, feed/tack room and concrete enclosure. The paddock has direct access to bridle paths. Lot II will not be sold prior to Lot I. Available via separate negotiation.
