Full Description: <p>St Edmund’s House is a very impressive mid-19th Century home set in approximately 3 acres of gardens and paddock. There is a spacious and well thought out self-contained annex which has been used as an investment and would be perfect for multi-generational living.</p><p>As you enter the home you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hall which is complemented by the beautiful original Victorian floor tiles. The first door to the left-hand side provides access into the dining room, a lovely room which enjoys views over the garden and has plenty of natural light due to the dual aspect windows. There is also a Jetmaster open fireplace with an attractive marble surround. At the end of the hallway, you enter a very spacious living room. Taking centre stage is another Jetmaster open fireplace and the room also features a bay window that overlooks the gardens. Following the hallway around the corner, you have the study, which is a perfect space to work from home. To the back of the house is a very spacious kitchen and a further dining area.</p><p>The kitchen has a variety of base units, fitted storage space, the main focal point of the room however is the large electric AGA that comes with four ovens, two ring hobs and a warming plate. From the kitchen there is a set of double doors that lead out to a terraced area (which has underfloor heating and is therefore ripe for a conservatory), which has far reaching countryside views. At the rear of the kitchen there is a utility room.</p><p>On the first floor of St Edmund’s House there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms which all enjoy lovely views of the grounds and beyond. There is also a single bedroom which could be used as a separate office or a child's bedroom. There are two good sized bathrooms, one of which comes with a shower and a bath, and both have a low-level basin, and one has a WC.</p><p>On the second floor, there is a great opportunity to convert some more of the attic space (STPP). There is a further loft room which could be used as storage or if someone wishes, it could be another office space.</p><p>OUTSIDE</p><p>The Stables at St Edmund’s House would provide the perfect annex for multi-generational living. There are two good sized double bedrooms with two bathrooms. The main living space is open plan in arrangement with a high-quality kitchen and a wood burning stove. A set of French doors lead out to a patio area which is a fantastic use of space and would be great to entertain friends or family.</p><p>There is a quadruple car garage, at the rear of the left-hand garage there is a premium biomass boiler and solar system which heats St Edmund’s House. Above the garage the current owners have made the most of the available space and have turned it into a games room, with a table tennis and a pool table. This would also suit anybody that wanted to work from home without being inside the main house.</p><p>There are three separate driveways to the home and the house itself offers plenty of parking. The Paddock is North of the home and currently is being used as a mature and wild meadow.</p><p>The main gardens are to the south of the home and enjoys uninterrupted views of the countryside and are predominantly laid to lawn with apple trees, a vegetable patch and a wide variety of trees, shrubs and bushes.</p><p>LOCATION</p><p>Upper Vobster is located approximately half a mile from the popular village of Mells, which continues to be one of the most sought-after villages in the area.
