Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in sought-after West Coker, this detached three-bedroom bungalow sits on a large plot with attractive, private gardens backing onto open fields. The single-storey layout, conservatory and generous lounge/dining room deliver comfortable, accessible living — ideal for downsizers who value calm village life with Yeovil just 3.5 miles away.
The property offers strong practical assets: a detached double garage with power and one electric door, off‑road parking, useful utility room and well‑proportioned rooms ready to be updated. Double glazed windows and a recently installed Grant oil boiler are positives, but the home would benefit from cosmetic modernization throughout to realise its full potential.
Known issues and running costs are clear: the EPC sits at Band E, main heating is oil-fired (private, not community), and council tax is above average. Broadband speeds are slow in the area. These factors are factual considerations for buyers weighing energy and connectivity costs against purchase price and renovation scope.
For a buyer prepared to invest in light-to-medium refurbishment, this bungalow offers scope to personalise kitchens and bathrooms, improve energy efficiency and unlock value while retaining a peaceful rural outlook. The location — village amenities, primary school and easy access to Yeovil — makes it a practical, long-term home for downsizers or those seeking single-level living with room to expand their gardens and garaging.
