Description
An attractive 3 bedroom detached period house set in an elevated semi rural position with views over surrounding countryside. EPC: Band D
The property dates from the 1920's, substantially built with brick and rendered elevations set beneath a part tile and part slate roof, and offers comfortable and well proportioned accommodation that reflects the character of its period. Currently this provides three reception rooms plus a conservatory, a well fitted kitchen and separate utility /shower room to the ground floor and three double bedrooms and bathroom at first floor level. Gas fired central heating and uPVC double glazing are both installed but there is scope for some updating and, with a plot approaching 0.5 acre, room to extend, subject to any necessary consents. There is ample parking together with a double timber garage and a lovely well established garden bounded on three sides by open fields. Opportunities like this are increasingly rare and buyers are advised to book an early appointment to view.
The property occupies an open and slightly elevated position standing well back from the road mid way between Chard and Forton with superb views over the surrounding countryside. Chard offers a choice of major supermarkets, smaller retailers, educational and leisure facilities while the county town of Taunton, is just 16 miles to the North with intercity rail link (London Paddington) and access to the M5 motorway. The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is about 15 miles to the South at Lyme Regis.
