This spacious extended semi‑detached house on Durleigh Road offers generous family accommodation across two floors, with six good first‑floor bedrooms plus a flexible ground‑floor bedroom or study. The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/diner, utility, ground‑floor shower/cloakroom and a first‑floor shower room — useful for larger households. Solar panels reduce energy costs and feed‑in income; gas central heating and UPVC double glazing provide everyday comfort.
The large, private south‑facing rear garden is a standout feature: a relined solar‑heated circular swimming pool (relined c.2 years ago), an enclosed hydro spa hot tub with a covered oriental‑style building, decked entertaining areas, lawn and parking for several vehicles to the front. The plot size and outdoor facilities suit families who value outdoor living and entertaining.
Practical considerations: the house dates from the early 20th century and is of solid brick construction with assumed no cavity insulation in the walls, which may mean higher heating demand or future retrofit work. There are only two shower/WC rooms for seven bedrooms, and council tax is above average (Band E), so buyers should factor additional running costs and potential reconfiguration if they require more bathrooms.
Located approximately half a mile from Bridgwater town centre, the property sits in a sought residential area with several well‑rated primary and secondary schools within walking distance, good broadband speeds and low local crime. The house is best suited to a growing family wanting generous space, outdoor amenities and scope to update energy efficiency or provide extra bathrooms.
