5 bedroom detached house for sale

Property Guide Price - £1,000,000 - £1,250,000. Canters Green is a rare opportunity to acquire a country home set in a wonderfully private and peaceful location, with paddock, gardens, and versatile outbuildings extending to around 1.34 acres. Approached by a long driveway, tree lined down one side, the property combines seclusion with accessibility, being just over a mile from the A371, making commuting and school runs convenient while still enjoying glorious countryside surroundings.
Originally two cottages dating back to the late 19th century, the house was sympathetically converted into one and has been further extended to create a spacious family home. With four first floor bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an attached one bed annexe, the property offers a wealth of flexible accommodation suitable for multi-generational living, a holiday let, or home office.
Accommodation: The heart of the home is the spacious, south facing kitchen/dining room, which has a central island and plenty of space for a dining table. The inglenook fireplace is a fabulous feature, which currently houses a redundant solid fuel Rayburn and alongside there is a range cooker. The kitchen cabinets are painted wood and there is plenty of storage and work space. The kitchen opens out into the sitting room which features a wood-burner and double doors leading out to the garden. To the front of the property, off the entrance hall, is a second sitting room/snug which again has a wood burner set within an attractive fireplace – a perfect retreat in the winter months. To the rear of the property is a utility room, downstairs WC and practical boot room with a door that leads out to the back garden
Upstairs, the first floor is well arranged with four generous double bedrooms and three bathrooms. The principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room and fitted wardrobes, whilst the other bedrooms are served by two recently fitted family bathrooms – one featuring a roll-top bath and separate shower.
The Annexe: Accessed via the main house or with its own independent entrance, the self-contained annexe has a spacious sitting room, double bedroom, shower room and utility area. This space has excellent potential as a holiday let, long-term rental, or accommodation for extended family.
Outside: The property is approached via a sweeping, tree-lined driveway, with the paddock to one side and farmland to the other. There is extensive parking and turning space alongside a double garage/workshop with mezzanine storage. This building has recently been re-clad and has higher-than-average access height, ideal for larger vehicles. There is also a fully insulated garden building with electricity supply with potential for a garden office plus there is also an area of hard standing and the remains of a double stable, offering potential for further development (subject to consents).
The gardens are largely laid to lawn with established hedges and trees. The paddock, measuring approximately one acre, is currently stock-proof and provides a wonderful opportunity for equestrian use, hobby farming, or simply to enjoy the space.
Location: Set within the hamlet of West Bradley, Canters Green is surrounded by open countryside and orchards. The location is ideal for those seeking a rural lifestyle with accessibility, being within easy reach of Wells, Glastonbury, Shepton Mallet, and Castle Cary. The latter offering a mainline station with fast services to London Paddington. There are excellent schooling options nearby, including both state and independent, with Millfield Prep and Senior Schools particularly accessible.
