Set on the edge of Dulverton within Exmoor National Park, Heronswood is a spacious three-bedroom detached home with commanding valley views. The recently modernised ground floor provides a comfortable, light-filled core — kitchen with integrated appliances, utility, and a sun room that opens to the rear garden. Upstairs, a triple-aspect sitting room and wrap-around balcony make the most of the outlook; the master bedroom includes an ensuite and balcony access.
The plot is a major asset: very large landscaped gardens with level lawns, vegetable beds and mature shrubs, plus a gated stone-walled driveway, generous tarmac parking and a powered garage with storage. Practical features include double glazing (installed post-2002), oil-fired heating supplemented by a wood-burning stove and private septic drainage. Walking distance to Dulverton’s shops, services and riverside walks adds village convenience.
Buyers should note a few material points: the EPC is band E and the property is heated by oil with a Rayburn that supplies limited hot water and gravity-fed radiators. The building dates to the mid-20th century and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated — further insulation work may be desirable. Broadband speeds are slow in parts, council tax is high (Band F) and local statistics indicate above-average crime and area deprivation compared with national averages.
This house will suit someone seeking generous indoor and outdoor space, strong views and scope to add value through targeted upgrades — especially insulation and energy efficiency improvements. It’s also a practical country base for a family or downsizer who values proximity to Exmoor’s walking routes and Dulverton’s amenities.
