Far-reaching countryside views from front and rear
Set on a large plot with far-reaching countryside views, this five-bedroom detached house offers generously proportioned family living across multiple reception rooms. The ground floor flows well for everyday life and entertaining, with a contemporary kitchen, utility, WC and a living room with wood-burning stove. Upstairs are five good-sized bedrooms, including a master with en-suite and countryside views from nearly every room.
Outside there is extensive parking, a double garage, rear lawn overlooking a paddock, covered veranda with hot-tub area and a summer house — ideal for families who value outdoor space and privacy. The home benefits from fully owned solar panels that provide a meaningful income and reduced running costs. The hamlet location gives easy road access to Taunton, Bridgwater, Street and Glastonbury, with good primary schools nearby and very low local crime.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the house was built in the late 1960s–1970s, has oil-fired heating and cavity walls with no confirmed insulation upgrade, and the property may benefit from energy efficiency improvements. Broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal, which may affect home-working. Council tax is above average for the area.
Overall this is a well-kept, spacious family home in a quiet rural setting that offers immediate liveability and scope for targeted improvement to reduce running costs and increase comfort. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, outlook and outdoor space.
