**UPCOMING HOPKINS ESTATES PROJECT** This is an opportunity to get involved at the early stages of the latest development by renowned Hopkins Estates.

Samaras is an exceptional new-build Dutch-style barn offering 4,000 sq.

ft of beautifully considered contemporary accommodation, set within an idyllic rural position in the sought-after village of Compton Pauncefoot.

Forming part of an exclusive development at Higher Farm, alongside just one other barn conversion, the property enjoys privacy, architectural distinction and far-reaching countryside views.

Approached via a long private driveway and framed by established trees and shrubbery, the barn immediately impresses with its striking exterior.

The dark steel-clad barrel-vault roof and extensive glazing are a modern interpretation of traditional agricultural architecture, designed to maximise natural light while creating a strong connection with the surrounding landscape.

A detached double garage with attached store sits discreetly to one side, while tall hedging, local stone walls and mature Sycamore trees provide privacy and security.

The front door opens beneath a sheltered porch into a spacious entrance hall, which is flooded with daylight from a glazed rooflight that runs the length of the hallway.

This welcoming space sets the tone for the quality and scale of the accommodation, with built-in coat storage, access to the plant room and additional store cupboard, and a staircase rising to the first floor.

To one side of the hall is a generous boot and utility room, thoughtfully designed for country living, with wall and base units, undercounter space for appliances and ample room for coats and footwear.

An external door provides side access, while an adjoining shower room offers a walk-in shower, basin and WC.

Also on the ground floor is the fifth double bedroom, which benefits from built-in wardrobes and a well-appointed en-suite shower room with twin basins, making it ideal for guests or multigenerational living.

The heart of the home is the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, which the hallway opens directly into.

This expansive room is defined by its sense of light and scale, with extensive glazing and sliding doors running across the rear elevation, opening onto the garden and framing views across the surrounding countryside.

The living area is generous and flexible, flowing seamlessly into the dining space and contemporary kitchen.

The kitchen itself will be fitted with modern wall and base units, high-quality integrated appliances and a central island with breakfast bar, creating an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining.

A separate pantry provides excellent additional storage, while a door leads through to a spacious study, perfectly suited for home working, with a window overlooking the garden.

The first floor is arranged around a light-filled landing with a linen store, providing access to four further double bedrooms, all of which benefit from en-suite bathrooms.

The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive space, enjoying a dual-aspect outlook across the surrounding landscape.

The suite includes a dedicated dressing area with built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom featuring a bath, separate shower, twin basins and WC.

Bedroom two also enjoys a dressing area with wardrobe storage and an en-suite shower room with twin basins, while bedrooms three and four are both generous doubles with built-in wardrobes and their own en-suite shower rooms.

Outside, the gardens wrap around the property and have been landscaped to create a private and tranquil setting.

The rear garden is enclosed and enjoys established sycamore trees along the western and northern boundaries, with a patio area positioned to take full advantage of the far-reaching views across the vale.

To the northeast, the property enjoys a charming outlook towards the village and church, while views to the northwest extend across open countryside, offering an ever-changing rural backdrop.

Samaras offers a rare opportunity to acquire a striking, architecturally designed new home that combines contemporary luxury within its rural setting, in one of Somerset’s most desirable village locations.
