Property description
CREECH VIEW, WESTON TOWN, EVERCREECH, SOMERSET, BA4 6PE
A handsome and much improved detached period house enjoying a generous plot in the heart of this ever-popular village, with four double bedrooms, flexible living space and a large mature garden incorporating a two studios/workshops, garage and ample parking.
AccommodationThis charming and characterful home offers exceptional space and versatility, ideally suited for family living. The current owners have extensively improved the property with redecorations throughout, and a newly added 'home office' within within the garden. The property dates back to 1899, and enjoys many period features indicative of this era.
A welcoming entrance hall with stained-glass door leads into the heart of the house, where an entrance hall with encaustic clay floor tiles opens to two spacious front-facing reception rooms which each enjoy original fireplaces, picture rails, decorative coving and ceiling roses. The sitting room benefits from a bay window looking out to the front, and the drawing room has French doors leading out to a sunny terrace.
To the rear is a large kitchen with ample room for a family dining table, featuring a Rayburn and a range of bespoke fitted units. Beyond lies a further pair of adjoining rooms, currently used as a garden room and formal dining room, complete with wood burner—ideal for relaxed evenings or entertaining. A utility and cloakroom are also situated on the ground floor.
Upstairs, the landing provides access to both loft spaces (each with extendable ladders). There are four comfortable double bedrooms, including the elegant principal suite with bay window and en suite shower room. A well-appointed family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Outside
The gardens are a particular feature—private and mature, mostly laid to lawn with established borders and planting. Within the deep flourishing boarders there are numerous flowing plants including Peonies, a variety of Roses, Ox-Eye Daisies and many more.
A detached studio in the garden currently serves as an art space but offers excellent potential for home working or hobbies. Additionally, the owners have erected a further studio with a tiled roof, clad walls and full insulation which also would be the perfect 'home office'.
A garage with up-and-over door is located to the rear, along with parking for several vehicles, complemented by additional space at the front.
