House For Sale £305,000
A great opportunity to purchase a well proportioned semi detached family home with three bedrooms, two reception rooms and situated in a quiet no through lane where the village and countryside merge. The property is located in the popular Somerset village of Henstridge, which boasts a local shop with post office, primary school, a couple of public houses that serve food and the village hall which hosts a variety of events. There is also a regular bus service to nearby towns and a mainline train station at Templecombe, is just three miles away. We believe that the property dates to the late 1930s and has been the very much loved and enjoyed family home to our seller for nearly fifteen years. During this time the property has been well maintained and improved. A wood burner was fitted about nine years ago, the kitchen units and bathroom suite were both replaced two years ago as well as a new central heating system installed at the same time. The property has also been re-configured to provide better usage of the ground floor accommodation and an easier to use flowing layout. This lovely home benefits from uPVC double glazing throughout, economical central heating from an 'Ecodan Mitsubishi' heat source pump and a verandah to the rear allowing year round outdoor seating. There are also newly fitted solar panels to the front of the property. This delightful home must be viewed to really appreciate, not just the inside and outside space but also the location. An early viewing is strongly advised so as to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next owner.
