Summary - HILLSIDE BUCKLAND ST MARY CHARD TA20 3TQ
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious 5-bed country house with annexe potential and half-acre gardens.
Five bedrooms with long-range countryside views
Hillside is a substantial, character-rich five-bedroom detached house set on approximately 0.5 acre on the southern edge of the Blackdown Hills AONB. Recently extended and well presented, the house combines 19th‑century origins with modern comforts: double glazing, oil‑fired central heating and a comprehensively fitted kitchen with an oil Aga. Elevated grounds and large windows give long-range country views from principal rooms and bedrooms, creating a calm family retreat.
The ground floor layout is versatile and includes a sitting room, dining room, garden room, utility and additional rooms currently used as hobby/gym spaces. Those rooms could provide a self-contained ground-floor annexe or guest suite with minimal adaptation. Outside, sweeping lawns, herbaceous borders, mature trees and a double garage with an implement store supply privacy and practical storage for rural living.
Practical points to note: the house has oil heating (private supply) and an EPC rating of E; the original granite walls are assumed uninsulated and further insulation works may be needed to improve efficiency. Council tax is described as expensive. For buyers who prioritise location, space and immediate presentation, this offers a rare family home in a tranquil hamlet setting with very fast FTTP broadband and excellent mobile coverage — ideal for those who work from home but want countryside lifestyle.
