Cricklade stands as a testament to exquisite modern refurbishment, presenting a contemporary home meticulously designed to capture breathtaking panoramic views across the verdant Taunton Vale. Every detail, from the structural remodelling to the finest finishes, has been curated to create a residence that seamlessly blends versatile living spaces with unparalleled stylish comfort.
Upon entering this exceptional luxury property, a spacious entrance hall sets the tone for the expansive living accommodation within. Thoughtfully integrated, a convenient cloakroom and a practical utility room enhance daily living. Furthermore, a dedicated study offers flexibility, easily converting into a fifth bedroom to suit diverse lifestyle needs, making this a truly adaptable refurbished home.
The heart of Cricklade lies within its spectacular open-plan living area, a harmonious fusion of kitchen, dining, and spacious lounge zones. The kitchen, a focal point of contemporary design, features a sophisticated range of panelled cabinets complemented by a striking central island. This island, topped with a luxurious Quartz marble effect worksurface, provides both ample preparation space and integrated seating for breakfast bar enjoyment.
This expansive reception space is bathed in natural light, offering generous room for both a formal dining table and comfortable sofas, making it ideal for entertaining or tranquil relaxation. Seamless transitions to the outdoors are facilitated by elegant bi-fold doors from the dining area leading to the rear terrace, while sliding glazed doors at the front open onto a raised terrace, inviting the panoramic views indoors.
Beyond the main residence, the property extends its meticulous design to the outdoor spaces. A further gateway on the west side reveals a discreet, enclosed working area. This practical zone is thoughtfully equipped with a secure garden store, perfectly sized to accommodate essential gardening tools and even a ride-on lawn mower, emphasizing the home’s functional elegance.
The rear of the building features a generously proportioned paved terrace, an idyllic setting for al fresco dining or simply soaking in the tranquil surroundings. This outdoor oasis is artfully bordered by a natural stone retaining wall, adding texture and character. The garden itself is a cultivated haven, enriched with a carefully selected mix of mature ornamental trees, including the vibrant acer, majestic magnolia, and classic holly, creating a verdant backdrop to this Somerset living dream.
Nestled within the coveted Blackdown Hills, Cricklade boasts an enviable and truly magnificent setting. Its elevated position affords spectacular and far-reaching views that sweep across the entirety of the Taunton Vale, continuing through to the distant Polden Hills, Quantock, and Brendon Hills, showcasing the natural beauty of the Somerset landscape.
