Set on one of the largest plots in the area, this two-bedroom detached bungalow sits in a quiet hamlet between Timberscombe and Dunster, with sweeping panoramic views across open countryside. The single-storey layout, double glazing and a cosy 8kW wood burner deliver comfortable, low-maintenance living ideal for downsizers or those seeking a peaceful rural base. A large wrap-around garden and a substantial 20 x 12 ft outbuilding create excellent outdoor space for gardening, hobbies or storage.
Internally the current owner has opened up a former third bedroom to form a generous, light-filled lounge; reinstating the third bedroom would be straightforward for buyers wanting an extra sleeping space. Practical fittings include integrated appliances, an integrated dishwasher, recent rewiring (as described by the seller) and parking for two vehicles. Planning permission was previously granted for a driveway, offering scope to improve kerb appeal and access.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property sits in a medium flood-risk area and broadband speeds in the locality are slow. The home is in an ageing rural neighbourhood within an agricultural community and the wider area shows signs of deprivation — factors that may affect services and resale dynamics. There is no onward chain, and the bungalow is freehold, making a quick move possible for a suitable buyer.
This bungalow offers a rare combination of plot size, rural tranquillity and straightforward renovation potential. It will suit someone who values privacy, outdoor space and single-level living, and who is comfortable managing the known local infrastructure limitations.
