Enjoying a unique position on the outskirts of Chard, this substantial detached bungalow has benefited from recent improvements and is set within generous gardens and grounds extending to approximately 0.75 acres. EPC: Band C
Occupying a secluded and highly desirable setting on the outskirts of Chard, this substantial detached bungalow stands within beautifully maintained grounds of just over three-quarters of an acre and has recently undergone a series of improvements, including a new kitchen, complete redecoration and significant enhancements to the gardens, while remaining within easy walking distance of Chard Reservoir Nature Reserve.
The well-proportioned accommodation is arranged around a welcoming central hallway with cloakroom and access to all principal rooms. A bright double-aspect dining room opens into an impressive double-aspect sitting room, which in turn leads to a conservatory overlooking the gardens. The recently replaced kitchen is well appointed and provides an attractive and practical space for everyday living.
The bedroom accommodation comprises a generous triple-aspect principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, a second double bedroom and a third bedroom which could alternatively serve as a home office or study. A separate shower room completes the internal layout. An internal door from the hallway provides direct access to the double garage, fitted with an automatic up-and-over door.
Adding to its appeal, the bungalow enjoys a unique edge-of-town position within easy walking distance of Chard Reservoir Nature Reserve, offering scenic walks and an abundance of wildlife right on the doorstep.
