Estate Agents often talk about houses being unique and individual, but when you visit Emily House I think that you will agree what a wonderful detached home it really is! Set on the hillside overlooking Axbridge itself along with spectacular views towards Cheddar Reservoir and even Glastonbury Tor on a clear day!
Arranged over three floors, the house offers a huge amount of space and could even have its own granny annexe too. Entering on the ground floor you are greeted with a huge open room measuring approximately 7.5m x 4m with its own stone fireplace and Log Burner. It is currently used as a playroom and office space by the current owners. Having two separate doors leading into the house from here and two large triple-glazed windows too, a separate entrance could easily be arranged. There is also a good-sized utility room on this floor complete with a WC that could easily be changed into a bathroom for a self-contained granny annexe.
On the first floor the views begin to show themselves more clearly, the comfortable sitting room has a Large Bay Window to the front that offers views over Cheddar Reservoir and lots more, and a second window to the side has very similar views, flooding the room with natural light. A stunning modern fitted kitchen complete with quartz work-surfaces is found at the opposite end of the house with another Large Bay Window with panoramic views. Double-glazed French doors open out from here to a paved patio area that shares similar views with the main house. A double bedroom is also found on this floor along with a rear lobby giving access to the rear of the house, WC and current storage room with plumbing and electrics for a shower, offering an alternative option for a granny annexe.
On the top floor, as you would expect, the views are at their very best and the top of Cheddar Gorge can be seen from the side of the house as well. Bedrooms one and two both have windows to two sides and are good sized doubles. A third bedroom with window to rear is currently used as a child’s bedroom, but will also accept a double bed if required. The family bathroom has been updated and would not look out of place in an expensive hotel, with fully tiled floor and walls, a large walk in shower enclosure, full size bath, vanity wash hand basin and WC.
The outside of this wonderful home is no less impressive, with gardens stretching to about 1 Acre that have been arranged on the hillside with many different areas including a paved terrace that has some of the best views you will find anywhere! The current owners have used the land for many different purposes; fruit bushes, raised beds, polytunnel and their very own outside bar! To the side of the house there is a large garage/workshop, and parking for at least three cars with space for more with only a little work.
The owners have loved their time here in Axbridge, taking part in numerous local events including Santa in The Square, a tradition dating back to the 60’s with children under 11 years old receiving gifts form the big man himself! The medieval Town Square, a few minutes’ walk away, is home to a monthly farmers market and several other community events during the year such as the annual Blackberry Carnival, and also home to 2 pubs, the renowned Almshouse Tea-rooms and a Co-op.
