Orchard House provides a rare opportunity to acquire a property in Mere that sits in an incredible rural position just a short distance from the village centre with accommodation extending to 3774 sq. Ft. With beautiful gardens, a swimming pool and numerous outbuildings.
Offering an enhanced lifestyle and ultimately versatile accommodation, Orchard House has been comprehensively re-imagined and improved by the seller creating the expansive modern family home you find today. This imposing home adheres to the highest level of modern living requirements creating a home that is as impressive as it is functional.
A flowing and practical floorplan creates a relaxing, wonderfully sociable home perfectly suited to couples and families. Upon entering the home, the size and quality is immediately apparent. The sprawling ground floor is a particular feature and incorporates an impressive open plan kitchen/dining to one side. The kitchen is stylishly appointed with ample wall and base units under granite work surfaces and a central island. Beyond there is space for a sizeable dining suite. Adjoining is the 23ft sunroom, a perfect additional entertaining space that seamlessly flows out the landscaped rear gardens. To the front is the formal sitting room with a feature fireplace carefully designed around their views across the private front garden. In addition, there is a generous study, games room, gym and a useful utility room and cloakroom. On the first floor there are five well balanced bedrooms. Four good doubles, one with an en-suite shower room, a perfect guest suite, and a large modern family bathroom. The fifth bedroom is a single or secondary study. The second floor is host to a stunning principal bedroom suite. There is a exceptional bedroom area, with space for a seating area, a dressing room with ample storage, contemporary en-suite bathroom, with further scope to expand into the adjoining room, currently used as a beauty room, but could be ideal as a study or nursery.
Outside
The home sits to the front of its beautifully landscaped and maintained grounds. There is a gated driveway that provides parking for multiple vehicles that in turn gives access to the timber frame double car barn and detached double garage that has electric up and over doors and a loft area that could be converted (subject to usual consents).
A pathway leads to the front entrance. The front garden is laid to lawn with pretty floral borders lining the established hedged boundary. The lawn flow around the side of the home with contoured shrub borders drawing you through to the rear garden. The rear garden is divided in several areas, a expansive paved terrace that adjoins the sun room. Beyond lawn that is interspersed with specimen trees leads up to the covered swimming pool. The retractable raised cover allows for use all year around. To the side there is a hot tub room, sauna, a changing room with a shower and cloakroom, a bar/outdoor barbecue area with a further paved terrace, an idyllic leisure complex perfectly set up to entertain and enjoy. A secret garden is then further to the side that hosts a large stocked pond with a circular walkway and flanked luscious planting. In all the grounds extend to 0.4 of an acre, boasting a sunny east to west aspect with views of Mere downs beyond.
Situation
Mere offers a wide range of shops and facilities, including an excellent health centre, chemist, post office, supermarket, butcher, fish farm, greengrocer, fire and police station, museum and public library, Mere Primary School, and the renowned Yapp Brothers wine merchants. The Newt in Somerset has acres of splendid gardens, woodland, farmland and cider orchards to explore.
The Stourhead Farm Shop is also close, as are Frome and Bruton. Nearby Gillingham has a Waitrose and the cities of Salisbury and Bath provide a more comprehensive range of shopping, restaurants, cinemas and theatres.
Communications by road are excellent with the A303 providing a link to the M3, M25 and London, or the West Country. Likewise, trains from nearby Gillingham and Warminster provide rail services to London, Bath, Salisbury, Exeter, Bristol and Southampton.
There are many highly regarded schools within easy reach including Port Regis, Sandroyd, Hazelgrove, Clayesmore, Sherborne, Millfield, Bryanston, Milton Abbey, King’s Bruton, and St Antony’s Leweston. Marlborough, St Mary’s Calne and Downside are a little further away.
Racing takes place in nearby Salisbury and Wincanton, while there are golf courses in Warminster, Wincanton and Sherborne.
