Summary - BADMINTON HOUSE LEIGH STREET LEIGH UPON MENDIP RADSTOCK BA3 5QP
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Substantial five-bed family home on c.1.5 acres with development potential.
Large open-plan kitchen/dining and separate sun room for indoor/outdoor living
Badminton House is a spacious, modern five-bedroom detached home set on about 1.5 acres in Leigh Upon Mendip. The ground floor centres on a large open-plan kitchen/dining area, generous living room and sun room that open to a private enclosed garden and paddock — an easy layout for family life, home working and entertaining. The second-floor principal bedroom includes a contemporary four-piece en-suite and dressing area, providing a clear master suite separated from other bedrooms.
Externally the plot is a major asset: an enclosed garden, additional lawned areas, extensive shingle parking and private paddocks linked to a double garage. The garage offers obvious potential for conversion or a roof extension (owner notes planning may be possible), and the paddock/land could support an outbuilding subject to the necessary consents — useful for buyers seeking space or scope to add value.
Practical points are straightforward: the house is freehold, built c.1996–2002, double-glazed and heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators. There is fast broadband and very low local crime, and nearby primary and secondary schooling rated Good or independent options close by. Note the property sits in an ageing rural neighbourhood and council tax is described as expensive, which will affect running costs. Any development of the garage roof or outbuildings would require planning permission and should not be assumed guaranteed.
This home will suit families who prioritise generous indoor/outdoor space and privacy, or buyers wanting a countryside investment with development potential. It is presented and ready to live in, with opportunities to adapt parts of the property subject to usual planning checks.
