aspects and features a recessed fireplace with woodburner and Bath

stone mantel and surround. An open archway flows effortlessly into a

chic dining room with the kitchen beyond. This stylish and

contemporary eating area enjoys a fabulous polished ‘Travertine’ floor

which continues into the kitchen which is simply a piece of modern art, the sleek high gloss kitchen units are topped with a seemingly

endless ‘Corian’ countertop complete with high quality 'Neff`

appliances and ceramic hob. French doors lead to the outside terrace

and a further door leads to a useful utility space and the huge double

garage. The ground floor accommodation also features a further

reception/music room to the front elevation, a useful office/study and

bathroom with a stylish white suite and separate shower cubicle with

modern rain fall shower. A second guest suite features a good range

Two further double bedrooms are both complemented by fitted

wardrobes with the larger also benefitting from an outstanding south

facing balcony which affords breathtaking views over the paddocks

and stunning countryside beyond. Completing the first floor

accommodation is a further shower room and several useful storage

cupboards and airing cupboard.

An exceptional feature of the property are the well maintained gardens which flank the property on all sides, with a large area of

southwest facing lawn to the front enclosed by a picket fence and

mature hedgerow, several juvenile fruit trees dot the front garden. A

small stone terrace hugs the house and provides a lovely seating area

to overlook the garden. To the side of the house, stone terraces rise to

the paddock beyond and feature an abundance of well planted

flowers and bushes, above the stone terrace is a pretty flower

meadow beneath two mature Fir trees. There are further raised flower beds and rockeries to the side of the house with a footpath providing

access to the rear of the garage.

At the end of the garden a five bar gate provides access to two side by side paddocks of approaching an acre each with a double stable

block and tack area. The beautiful setting of the gently sloping

paddocks are an absolute joy, with breathtaking panoramic views over stunning scenery. The top of the paddocks provide a perfect

vantage point to take in the setting sun on a late summer’s evening

with a vista that can see as far as the Welsh Mountains on a clear

day… absolute bliss!

DIRECTIONS Travelling into Shipham from the Rowberrow direction, proceed into The Square and on past Hansfords and The Penscot. Continue straight

on up Cuck Hill past Templars Way, the drive for Daneswood care

home can be found on your left hand side and Waverley shares the

drive and can be found a little way up on the right.

SITUATION Shipham is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a highly sought after village, nestled in the picturesque Somerset

countryside. It is well served by both primary and middle schools and

is much sought after by those commuting to Bristol, as it offers all the

advantages of rural living with many bridleways and footpaths,

including the West Mendip Way which crosses the parish providing

ready access to the hills and Mendip plateau, where there are

extensive views across the Bristol Channel to the Welsh coast and

Brecon Beacons beyond. Indeed, it is very well positioned for local transport links and the M5 motorway which is accessible via junction

20 at Clevedon, junction 21 at St Georges and junction 22 at

Edithmead. Village facilities are available, including butcher/stores,

garage, public house, hotel and further shopping facilities at nearby

Winscombe and Cheddar. The new village hall (with its stage, sports

hall, function rooms and kitchen) is a popular centre for a broad range

of community events and activities for all ages. Private sector

schooling is close by at Sidcot and the Downs School at Wraxall is within easy reach, as are Wells Cathedral School and Millfield. In the

state sector, Kings of Wessex School (www.kowessex.co.uk) is nearby

and for sports and recreational amenities, Churchill Academy is a drive

away. The surrounding area is excellent riding country and is sure to

appeal to equestrian enthusiasts and walkers. There is an international

airport at Lulsgate and access to the mainline railway station at Yatton.

We have noticed ... Waverley is a beautiful family home and a

real credit to its current owners. The sleek design and

contemporary decor complement the light and airy interior with

practically every window in the house offering a glimpse of

stunning rural scenery. The adjoining paddocks allow the rare

opportunity to stable your own horses on your doorstep and take

full advantage of the panoramic views over rolling countryside

towards the Bristol Channel and the Brecon Beacons beyond. Simply stunning.
