Built in 2015, Heron House is a fantastically designed contemporary family home that offers space and style in abundance. Architecturally planned to make the most of the open outlook over the Mendip Hills beyond, this beautiful home captures the ‘wow factor’ unlike any other.

Upon entering the house via the front porch, the house then opens up into a wonderfully large reception area that boasts an eye catching solid oak and glass floating staircase. The room lends itself perfectly to the open plan living lifestyle, with a large dining area, living area with a stunning fireplace and inset log burner and leads on seamlessly into the kitchen and further dining area, which again takes in the fantastic views on offer. From here, you can also access the day room/office which is generous in size and offers a view over the front aspect. The kitchen is bespoke made from Ash and has the added benefit of granite worktops. It is well appointed with ample storage, integrated appliances, whilst further touches throughout include solid wood floor and upright radiators. The kitchen leads onto the additional dining/family room which has multiple French doors that open onto the garden and allow plenty of light to flood in. Off of the kitchen is the utility room, which offers handy access to the rear, access into the ground floor w/c and into the sauna room.

On the first floor, there are four generous bedrooms, with the fifth room being smaller or lends itself as a very handy dressing room. The two main bedrooms to the rear boast Juliette balconies to really make the most of the incredible views on offer, as well as having stylish en-suite shower rooms. All bedrooms offer fitted storage/wardrobes. The family bathroom is also located on the first floor.
