Summary - Oaklands, Heatherton Park Road, West Buckland TA21 9HU
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot and countryside views close to Taunton and Wellington.
Substantial 1930s detached family home with period character
A substantial 1930s detached family home set on a very large plot of approximately 0.61 acres, with far-reaching views across the Blackdown Hills. The house delivers traditional, well-proportioned rooms including a front-to-back lounge, sun room, study and kitchen/breakfast room with a gas Aga. Double glazing and mains gas central heating provide modern comfort while preserving period character.
The four good-size bedrooms include a principal bedroom with en-suite shower; a separate family bathroom serves the rest. Outside, mature hedging, large lawns, a sheltered vegetable area and a double garage sit behind a tarmacadam driveway, offering generous outdoor space and parking. The location sits roughly equidistant between Taunton and Wellington with local amenities and primary schooling within about a mile.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are slow in this remoter village location, and council tax is noted as expensive. The house retains many 1930s features but will suit buyers happy to update certain finishes and services to their own taste. Access to the M5 (Junction 26) is close, making Bristol and Exeter commutable by car.
This property will appeal to families seeking countryside space, period detail and strong onward connections, or buyers looking for a substantial home with scope to modernise and personalise in a peaceful village setting.
