4 bed detached house for sale

Gurney Slade, Radstock, Somerset BA3

A modern, light and spacious four bedroom detached house, built in 2022, situated within the popular Mendip village of Gurney Slade. Enjoying pleasant views across neighbouring farmland, this attractive property has been finished to a high standard and includes a double garage, ample gated parking, air-source heating and EV charging. Viewings highly recommended. EPC rating B.

A door to the front of the property opens into an inviting central hall, which incorporates the staircase to the first floor accommodation and a storage cupboard beneath. To the left of the hall is a downstairs WC, which has added space to add a shower, should a purchaser wish to alter in the future. On the opposite side is the main sitting room, which is dual-aspect with a double glazed bay window to the front and a set of patio doors to the side, allowing in lots of natural light. A corner wood burning stove then creates the perfect focal point.

One of the main selling points of this fabulous modern home is the incredibly spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/living room. Measuring over 30’ long, this impressive room has been designed very much for families and for those who enjoy entertaining guests. At one end of the room is a living area, comfortably accommodating a selection of soft furnishings, with a second set of double glazed patio doors opening out to the lawned garden at the side.

The kitchen itself has been stylishly fitted with a range of matching floor and wall units with Corian work surfaces and a superb island with breakfast bar. Within the kitchen, there are two integrated electric ovens, an induction hob with extractor over, as well as a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. For those who enjoy cooking, located off the kitchen is a wonderful walk-in pantry, another thoughtful addition. In between the kitchen area and living space, there is plenty of room for a good size dining table and chairs. An opening then leads through into a garden room at the rear, providing an additional seating area, taking in a pleasant outlook behind, with further access to the garden.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is the utility room – a particularly useful space offering an external door, plumbing for a washing machine/tumble dryer and entry through to the double garage. The whole of the ground floor is served by under floor heating.

On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, all of which are well-proportioned. The master and the second bedroom are located at the back of the house, both with the advantage of fine views (the master being dual-aspect) and smart en-suite shower rooms.

The family bathroom is well-appointed, with a matching white suite comprising a panelled bath, a low-level WC and a vanity wash hand basin with tiled splashbacks. There is also a heated towel rail and extractor.
