Accommodation

5 Harvester Close forms part of a premium, highly eco-friendly development in Galhampton, surrounded by the rolling countryside of rural Somerset. The house has an attractive contemporary appearance, combining crisp lime-wash rendered elevations and a natural slate roof, together with a pretty Hadspen stone wall at the front.

The quality of construction and finish is immediately apparent, reflecting the developer’s attention to detail and commitment to sustainable building methods. Imaginative glazing and generously proportioned rooms create a particularly light and spacious interior, complemented by clean architectural lines and a considered contemporary finish.

The front door sits beneath a contemporary entrance canopy with integrated lighting and opens into a welcoming reception hall. The heart of the house is the magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and living room. This impressive space is designed equally well for everyday family life and entertaining, with French doors opening directly onto the south-facing terrace and garden.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with Shaker-style cabinetry, 22mm square-edged Corian worktops and an excellent range of integrated appliances. These include a Siemens induction hob with built-in extractor, Siemens oven, fridge/freezer, Caple dishwasher and boiling-water tap.

P.S.

A few extra comments

Mortgages – we can help.

Bridging loans – We can help.

Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.

Sometimes, we can negotiate an agreement that suits both sellers and buyers.

Sometimes, a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.

Call us for information on any of these points.
