Lantau is a superb contemporary house designed and built by local architect, Simon Corbett, in 2015. Designed for entertaining and family life, the open-plan ground floor features large format porcelain stone with multi-zone underfloor heating throughout. Strategically placed windows create a space bathed in natural light. The striking interior features a full-height entrance with vaulted ceiling. The open-plan reception areas are separated by an eye-catching double-sided Dru feature fire. Full-height sliding doors open onto the granite patio and south-facing garden. A cleverly positioned study sits off the open-plan area, and a shower room and fifth bedroom are accessible from the inner hall. The kitchen is an exceptionally well-appointed bespoke design with a large island/breakfast bar and Krion worktops. Integrated appliances include smeg double ovens with microwave, two fridge freezers, dishwasher and induction hob. An under-sink water filter unit delivers fresh drinking water. A unique concrete staircase with glass balustrade leads to a gallery landing offering extensive views of the Mendip Hills. The highlights of the spectacular principal bedroom are the full-height vaulted ceiling, the large picture window with sweeping vistas and the contemporary Lusso stone resin bath and double sink. The room also features a shower and private dressing area. There are three further double bedrooms, one with an ensuite, and a stylish family bathroom. The first floor features whitewashed oak flooring, and luxury vinyl in the bathrooms. THE HIDE/OUTSIDE The Hide is a bespoke home office situated at the end of the rear garden with lovely views. It offers ample power points and workstation provisions. Refurbished in 2021, it now features a kitchenette and ensuite shower room.
