3 bedroom bungalow for sale

Available to purchase with no onward chain.
A finely-proportioned and beautifully presented three bedroom detached bungalow, delightfully situated in a private cul-de-sac, within the favoured village of Fivehead. Occupying a generous plot, this superb property includes a contemporary kitchen/dining room, a conservatory, a shower room and en-suite to the Master bedroom, a double garage and landscaped gardens.


A door to the front of the bungalow opens into a traditional central hall, which incorporates a built-in airing cupboard with a recently installed hot water cylinder (2023), a further storage cupboard with space for a tumble drier as well as access into the insulated loft space via a hatch and a pull-down ladder.

The property has three bedrooms; two doubles and a single. The Master bedroom is located at the rear of the bungalow and benefits from a range of matching fitted wardrobes and units, including over the bed storage and a dressing table. Adjoining this well-proportioned principal bedroom is an en-suite bathroom, which offers a panelled bath with a shower over, tiling around and a screen, a low level WC, a pedestal wash hand basin, a shaver point, radiator and wall-mounted electric heater, a toiletries cupboard and a tiled floor.

The sitting room is triple-aspect, enjoying plenty of natural light and is a particularly comfortable reception room. Glazed double doors from the sitting room open into the hall, with a further set leading through to the kitchen/dining room. A fireplace with an inset living flame gas fire (bottled gas) provides an appealing focal point. The kitchen/dining room is not only spacious, but has been tastefully finished with a contemporary selection of floor and wall units. The floor coverings in the kitchen (continued into the conservatory) have been chosen for a modern wood-effect finish, yet are a hard-wearing and waterproof vinyl, allowing for easy cleaning and durability. The kitchen comes with an integrated dishwasher, microwave, a double electric eye-level oven and an induction hob with an extractor above. In addition, there is a stainless steel ‘one and a half’ drainer sink unit with an Insinkerator and mixer taps, a breakfast bar and ample room for a dining table and chairs.

Double glazed sliding doors then open into an equally fully double glazed conservatory, which has external patio doors, spot lights and provides a pleasant space to sit and enjoy the outlook across the garden, and towards St. Martin’s church behind.
Accessed from the kitchen is a useful utility room, which provides further floor and wall storage units and a separate sink. The utility is fitted with plumbing for a washing machine and has a door to the garden. Completing the accommodation is the shower room; smartly presented with a double shower cubicle (fully tiled), a low level WC, a vanity wash hand basin, an extractor fan, an electric wall-mounted heater, radiator and a sensor controlled illuminated mirror, with a shaver point.

The property is situated in a small, residential cul-de-sac (private road) within the pretty, historic village of Fivehead, conveniently located just 10 miles from the county town of Taunton, ideal for those looking to commute. This favoured village offers a thriving pub (The Crown Inn), a Parish church, a Baptist church with a community café/coffee shop (The Stable) run by local volunteers, a garage and a superb village hall with a car park and playing field. There are some excellent rural and woodland walks close by, and within the neighbouring villages. A wider range of amenities are available in the larger village of Curry Rivel, including a primary school, is approximately 3 miles away. Only 5 miles from Fivehead is the market town of Langport, which has a Tesco supermarket, schools, banking services, doctors' and dentists' surgeries, a library, inns, churches, as well as bakeries and cafés. Huish Episcopi Academy at nearby Huish Episcopi also has an adjoining Sixth Form and a sports centre. Curry Mallet primary school is approximately 2 miles away. The A303 is easily accessible to the south, as is the M5 motorway (at Taunton). Railways stations are located within commuting distance at Yeovil, Taunton and Bridgwater (to Paddington and Waterloo).

At the front of the property there is an area of garden, laid to lawn with mature shrubs and a stone pathway. The driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the attached double garage, which has one ‘up and over’ door, light, power, a personal door to the rear garden, wall mounted cupboards and houses a ‘Boulter’ oil-fired boiler for the central heating. The property has a paved pathway to the front door, an area of lawn beside the driveway offering space for additional car parking (if desired) and side access via a wooden gate to the rear garden. The well-tended and attractively landscaped rear garden is enclosed to all sides by walling and fencing, with established planted borders.

The garden is predominantly laid to lawn with stone chipped paths and a section of patio adjoining the back of the bungalow, ideal for outdoor dining/entertaining. In addition, there is a charming covered seating area with a pantile roof and glazed sides, an outside tap, ample lighting and two water butts. To one side, there is a screened area incorporating the oil tank and storage for bins.

The property has ownership of the section of private road directly in front, including the small area of verge beyond. The two neighbouring bungalows (no. 8 & 9) within the cul-de-sac then have a right of access.
