Tucked in the heart of Meare, this semi‑detached farmhouse blends rural character with practical family living. Exposed beams and a brick fireplace give the sitting room genuine charm, while an open plan kitchen/diner with snug suits everyday family use and social cooking. A conservatory and generous utility add useful space for muddy boots and laundry.
The south‑facing rear garden is enclosed and private — a safe play area for children and a sunny spot for planting. Off‑road parking is substantial, with a carport and outbuildings that offer covered parking and storage for bikes, garden tools or a workshop. The property sits close to Ham Wall and Avalon nature reserves, appealing to families who enjoy countryside walks and wildlife.
Practicalities are straightforward: freehold tenure, double glazing updated after 2002, fast broadband and low local crime. The heating runs on an oil boiler and radiators (private oil supply), and the house dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s with sandstone/limestone walls and partial insulation.
Buyers should note the home shows signs of dated decor and will benefit from updating to modern finishes; there is only one bathroom for three double bedrooms. Council Tax Band E is above average. For purchasers seeking character with scope to improve, Doran Lodge offers a spacious village base with genuine countryside appeal.
