Seller Insight - When you decide to move home, you often have a vision of exactly what it is you are looking for. This was precisely the case for the owners of Sunny Mede. A chocolate box house and village with everything in walking distance was the dream. When their search started they, like all house hunters, had to make a compromise or two on the way, but in the end they got what they were looking for.
"Cheddar wasn't the place I thought we would live but it had everything that we wanted in terms of things being in walking distance. No matter now many villages and towns we looked at, we kept coming back to Cheddar, and we moved to a property not far from where we are now. As I started to explore the area, I found the private lane that Sunny Mede is situated on. I remember walking along and seeing this house, thinking: Imagine living in a house like that! Little did I know that a few years later we would swap houses with the owners as they were looking to downsize."
The private lane is home to seven houses, each detached, with Sunny Mede being one of the last homes on the cul-de-sac. It is the type of lane where children can play out on scooters or play tennis, safely. There is no doubt that the beautiful façade of this house is hard to ignore, as well as its quiet and peaceful setting. Inside, the owners have done a lot of work over the years, upgrading and decorating to their particular style and taste. The organisation of the rooms has also changed as the needs of their children have evolved.
"We have enjoyed the space. Downstairs is great for entertaining, especially with the kitchen as it is now, as we moved it into the old living room. It is now a space that brings us together, with the breakfast bar that sits six; having people in the room has brought my joy of cooking back. The outside space is also ideal for garden parties. There is also a room at the back of the garage where the kids loved having sleepovers when they were younger."
Moving to a new area can raise concerns about meeting people and making friends, which is one of the reasons why the owners wished to be able to walk to everything. "This is a really lovely community, plenty of people to say hello to that you see regularly around Cheddar. Making friends was easy and we quickly felt at home, and we have wonderful neighbours."
For those that have children, there is a first, a middle and a senior school all within 10 minutes' walking distance of the property. Two supermarkets can be accessed within six minutes, and the leisure centre is also under ten minutes away. The leisure centre offers so much, with its swimming pool, gym and all the classes you can imagine, which the owners and family have taken complete advantage of. There are also tennis courts, football, rugby and cricket clubs, a pump track, skateboarding park, sailing, paddleboarding and so much more. There is also a good choice of pubs, restaurants and takeaways.
The area, as you can imagine, is also popular for walkers and cyclists, who are the main visitors to the local Youth Hostel. "There are rambling and dog walking groups in the village, and I can be up on the Mendips with the dog within 15 minutes from my front door, which is amazing. We have loved living here: it's so warm and homely. The kids have had a fabulous life growing up here - everything just works."
