Set within a private village setting just yards from the centre of Chardstock, this detached four-bedroom bungalow offers single-storey living on just over a third of an acre. The house has been recently renovated and presents versatile accommodation including a south-facing sitting room with wood-burning stove, a well-equipped kitchen and a bright dining conservatory that overlooks mature, secluded gardens. The plot and layout provide genuine scope to create a small self-contained annexe if required.
Practical strengths include ample driveway parking, a single garage with car port, and very low local crime. The property sits in an affluent, agricultural area with easy access to village amenities, nearby towns (Axminster and Chard) and the Jurassic Coast. There is no flooding risk and broadband speeds are reported as fast — useful for remote working or family connectivity.
Buyers should note some material facts: heating is by an oil-fired boiler and the EPC is Band E, which may mean higher running costs than gas or mains alternatives. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the construction dates to the late 1960s/early 1970s, so some elements may reach the typical lifecycle for renewals in the coming years. Council tax band is not specified.
Overall this is an attractive, well-presented bungalow for families or downsizers seeking a quiet, private plot with adaptable accommodation and scope for a small annexe. The combination of a large, mature garden, recent refurbishment and village proximity makes it particularly appealing for those who value privacy and low-maintenance, single-storey living.
