This single-storey, pre‑war detached bungalow sits on a large plot close to Taunton town centre, offering roomy single‑level living with classic bay windows and generous front and rear gardens. The layout includes a lounge, separate dining room/snug with wood burner, long sunroom and three bedrooms — a practical home for downsizers, families wanting ground‑floor living, or buyers seeking refurbishment potential.
The property is freehold, gas‑heated with double glazing, a larger‑than‑average detached garage and a wide driveway providing easy off‑street parking and turning. The long sunroom opens onto the enclosed rear garden; the plot size and side access create scope for extension or reconfiguration (subject to planning).
Internally the bungalow is serviceable but dated. Cosmetic updating, modernising the kitchen and bathroom, and potential structural works would add value. Buyers should note the vendor’s remarks that services and measurements are untested — a survey is recommended.
Location benefits include close access to schools, shops and bus routes, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Material points to consider: the area records above‑average crime and high deprivation indices, and the house dates from 1930–1949 so buyers should allow for age‑related maintenance and possible improvements.
