This attractive five-bedroom property is nestled in a tucked away, but not remote location, close to the popular village of Wrington. Thanks to its elevated position it offers magnificent panoramic views over the surrounding countryside towards the Mendip Hills.

The charming five-bedroom house, named Grove Lodge, dates back to 1823 and displays many characteristics of the era, with a beautifully symmetrical facade, orangery style tracery windows and Broseley tiled pitched gables.

The Grove Lodge has an impressive arched masonry entrance with a solid oak front door. Framed on either side with gables with gorgeous ornamental woodwork, and unusual round windows with tracery detailing, it opens straight into a porch and then onto the reception hall.

Inside, the spacious dual-aspect sitting room has an open Minster-style fireplace and a large bay window with French doors that lead out to the terrace. The attractive dining area has parquet flooring and plenty of room for a large table. Steps up lead to a cosy room which is currently arranged as an office with fitted shelving and a large, walk-in storage cupboard. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room has a traditional look with oak cupboards, space for appliances and a four-oven Aga at its heart.

On the first floor, a large landing gives access to five bedrooms and four bathrooms. The family bathroom is fully tiled and has a contemporary freestanding bath and a separate shower. The principal bedroom is a large double, with an ensuite bathroom, fitted wardrobes and a dressing table. Flooded with light thanks to high ceilings, it has a French door which opens to a gorgeous wisteria-clad balcony, the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee.

Outside, the gardens are a real feature of this property and have been beautifully landscaped to create a multitude of terraces from where there are splendid views. Clematis, wisteria, roses and rhododendrons complement archways to create a delightful environment, and a cascading water feature culminates with a pond encouraging wildlife. There is also a vegetable patch, greenhouse and a large level lawn with a pretty summer house.

The driveway provides parking space for several cars and leads to a garage and a carport.
