Dating from the 1960's, Highfields has been in the same family ownership for many years and now offers buyers the opportunity to purchase an individual detached bungalow set in a generous level plot with scope to improve and extend, subject to any necessary consents. Currently the accommodation requires a certain amount of updating but provides a light, double aspect living room with open fireplace and access to the garden terrace, kitchen with gas-fired Aga and boiler, separate utility room, three double bedrooms and a bathroom.

The bungalow is quietly tucked away in this small but thriving hamlet on the Somerset/Dorset border, some 21⁄2 miles to the south east of Chard and surrounded by glorious unspoilt countryside.
Chard is well served with a wide range of amenities including a choice of major supermarkets, smaller retailers, leisure
facilities etc and the county town of Taunton is some 16 miles to the north, with an intercity rail link (London Paddington) and access to the M5 motorway. The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is about 14 miles to the south at Lyme Regis.

The property occupies a generous level plot with sweeping lawns on three sides, a wide paved terrace and neat herbaceous borders, vegetable plot, greenhouse, all bounded by a mix of established conifer hedging and fences and adjoining open fields on one side. There is a wide driveway leading to a car port and double garage beyond.
