Property Description
Broadway Lea is approached via a wooden five bar gate, which opens onto a gravel driveway leading to the parking area in front of the house, a detached double garage with electronically operated doors and a further detached garage with attached workshop/store.
The immaculately presented accommodation includes a reception hall, cloakroom WC, a sunny triple aspect sitting room which runs the width of the house with a central contemporary-styled gas fire. Further reception rooms include a traditionally styled dining room with feature fireplace and a spacious fully fitted kitchen, refurbished in 2012 with dining area and woodburning stove. This sleek and modern space boasts white units with Corian worktops, a stainless steel one and a half bowl sink with Zip boiling water tap, a central island with induction hob, breakfast bar and further storage and fitted appliances including a dishwasher, two electric ovens, an integrated coffee machine and microwave. Beyond the kitchen is a utility room, a cloakroom/WC, a part glazed side door and access to the single garage. A new conservatory was added in 2012 which has a lovely south facing aspect overlooking the garden and is fitted with electric blinds.
A fine wooden staircase leads up the first floor where you will find 4 bedrooms including the luxury principal suite with a magnificent range of fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. There are 3 further double bedrooms on this floor each with its own ensuite bathroom.
A loft extension, created in the mid 90s, comprises two bright airy double bedrooms with dormer windows. One of these is currently used as an office and is fitted with a range of cupboards and a desk. There is a further shower room on this floor as well as extensive eaves storage.
The attractive landscaped gardens, which enjoy high levels of privacy, are mainly laid to lawn with well-tended borders displaying a glorious variety of flowers and shrubs as well as some impressive mature trees and hedges, such as copper beech and a Japanese Ginko. The gardens are divided into different areas of interest and include a more formal rose garden with box hedging and an ornamental lily pond, 2 decked seating areas, perfect for entertaining or enjoying the peaceful views, a greenhouse, a wildflower meadow with mown pathways which lead to the tennis court, the stables and paddocks. There is further vehicular access to the paddocks and stables from the lane.
The old Somerset village of Shipham dates from Roman times and lies to the west of the Mendip Hills in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with St Leonards Church, Shipham Church of England First School, a general store, and an active village community. Winscombe Primary School is a mile away. For secondary education Churchill Academy and Sixth Form, rated Outstanding by OFSTED is just over a mile away, Kings of Wessex is in nearby Cheddar and in the independent sector, Sidcot school is under a mile away. The property is placed equidistant between Bristol and Millfield School. The well-regarded Swan Inn in Rowberrow is under a mile away.

The Mendip Hills are a hub for outdoor pursuits including walking, mountain biking, sailing and fishing. The Mendip Activity Centre is also nearby. The property is convenient for the cities of Bath, Bristol and Wells as well as the seaside town of Weston super Mare. The property is conveniently situated for commuting by train, with the nearest railway station at Yatton (approx. 7 miles) with links to the mainline trains to Bristol and London.
