This well-presented three-bedroom detached house on Thames Drive offers straightforward family living in a quiet Taunton suburb. The layout is practical: entrance hall, living room, dining room opening to the enclosed south-facing garden, fitted kitchen with utility, cloakroom, integral garage and three first-floor bedrooms with a family bathroom. The plot is a decent size for the road and the manageable garden enjoys good afternoon sun.
Parking and storage are strong practical benefits — an integral single garage plus driveway and gravel forecourt provide off-street parking for two vehicles and useful secure storage. The property is freehold, in a low-crime area with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, making it suitable for remote working and everyday family life.
The location is about 1.6 miles from Taunton town centre with local shops, leisure facilities and several primary and secondary schools nearby. There are highly regarded independent and good-rated state primaries within easy reach, though one nearby secondary (Monkton Wood Academy) is currently rated Inadequate — parents may wish to check school places. Council tax band D and no identified flood risk add to the property's practical appeal.
The house is presented in good condition externally and internally for its type, but rooms are average in size and the home offers scope for updating to suit modern tastes. Buyers seeking a larger footprint or an extra bathroom should note the property’s footprint is typical of suburban stock and alterations would need planning and budget. Overall, it will suit owner-occupiers looking for a comfortable, well-located family home with private parking and a sunny rear garden.
