This detached three‑bed bungalow sits in the heart of Thorncombe village, one of only four bungalows locally, and offers a generous, single‑storey layout ready for modernisation. The large living/dining room with wood burning stove and triple aspect windows gives a bright, social heart to the house, while the garage, driveway parking and sizeable gardens deliver practical outdoor space.
The property needs updating — the timber conservatory requires replacement and the interior would benefit from a comprehensive modernisation to heating and finishes. There is clear scope to extend where the conservatory stands (subject to planning), creating a much larger kitchen/dining area and adding long‑term value. Windows are double glazed and the house has a loft with partial boarding.
Set in a friendly village with a community shop, hall, church and footpaths on the doorstep, the location is rural and peaceful yet within reasonable driving distance of Chard, Crewkerne and Lyme Regis. Services include mains water, electricity and an oil boiler with radiators; there is no mains gas. Council Tax Band D.
This bungalow will suit buyers wanting one‑level living in a village setting and who are prepared to invest time and money to modernise and personalise the home. The no‑onward‑chain position makes it suitable for a quicker purchase for renovators, downsizers or those seeking a countryside base with potential to add value.
