About the area
Compton Dundon is an attractive village in one of the most picturesque parts of Somerset between Somerton and Street. It's surrounded by unspoilt countryside with wooded hills with public access with many footpaths. There is vibrant community based around the church, cricket pitch, pub and village hall. Compton Dundon church is a sweet little parish church sitting on the site of a prehistoric grove and noteworthy for its ancient yew trees believed to date back 1,700 years.

Dundon Beacon is a special and species-rich nature reserve, managed by Somerset Wildlife Trust, now being returned to ancient oak woodland with managed coppice and restored grass downland. It's accessed by a footpath and is as pleasant a country walk as can be found. Another good walk is to 'Lollover Hill, ' reputably the viewing point of the Battle of Sedgemoor in 1685.

Accommodation
Ivythorn View is an impressive newly built property which is nearing completion with a choice of various finishes offered by the developer. The property has been built in a characterful style, balancing period-style features with modern convenience. Few new builds ever enjoy such rural idyll, and this is a unique acquisition not to be missed. Built in local Blue Lias stone, the property has attractive elevations under a tiled roof with a beautifully constructed oak porch abutting the main facade. Steps lead up to the front door beneath the porch which enters a welcoming entrance hall with a full height ceiling and a Velux window illuminating the space. On the right hand side of the hall there is the sitting room which has a feature fireplace and a dual aspect with french doors to the garden at the rear and a fabulous view at the front.

The kitchen dining living room is a wonderfully large living area with a vast amount of storage provided by a mixture of full height larder cupboards, base units and an island with oak work surfaces and high quality fittings. There are integrated appliances including full height fridge and freezer, a boiling water tap and dishwasher. A new owner will be given a choice of oven to fill the cavity which has been designed for a range style cooker. On this note, the rooms within the property that are not currently fitted with flooring can be decided upon by a buyer with the developers to furnish at their choice, subject to negotiations. The island has a breakfast bar to sit at and there is plenty more room for a dining table. The room enjoys a dual aspect with two sets of french doors leading to the garden. Adjoining the kitchen, there is a utility room with space for washing facilities, a side door with disability access ramp and a butlers sink.
