Executive style detached residence situated in a cul-de-sac within a popular mature development. Attractive gardens, garage and parking.

A two storey extension was added in 2003, along with significant works over the last 10 years which include; replacement boiler, re-fitted bathroom and ensuite and a fantastic kitchen was fitted in 2023. Situated in a pleasant position at the end of a cul-de-sac with attractive gardens, garage and parking.
The flexible accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises; an entrance door opens into a welcoming hallway and a hardwood staircase with glass balustrades rises to the first floor with useful storage cupboard under. Doors open into the lounge/ kitchen and home office/sitting room. The lounge is a well-proportioned room with a feature fireplace and bay window overlooking the front garden. A further reception room offers a multitude of uses and is currently set up as a home office with a built-in storage unit. This room could be utilised as a ground floor bedroom if required or a sitting/family room. To the rear of the ground floor you will find a dining room with French doors opening out to the garden and a door leading into the kitchen which is a particular feature of the property. Re-fitted in 2023 with an extensive range of self-close drawers and units along with complimentary work tops over. The kitchen benefits from a range of integral appliances which include; Neff induction hob, hide and slide oven, combination second oven, microwave and dishwasher. In addition there is space for an American style fridge/freezer. Finally, the ground floor accommodation is completed with a WC and useful utility which has space/plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
On the first floor the spacious landing area has an airing cupboard and two access points into the loft, both with a fixed ladder. There are five bedrooms and a family bathroom. All five bedrooms have built-in wardrobes included and the principal bedroom has a range of built-in furniture, wall-mounted TV and an ensuite shower room with a walk-in shower cubicle and useful storage cupboard. The modern family bathroom also benefits from a storage/linen cupboard and has a four piece suite which comprises; P-shaped bath with waterfall mixer tap, shower cubicle with electric shower, WC and sink with pillar mixer tap.

The property is situated on the edge of the popular town of North Petherton which lies 7 miles to the north of Taunton and 3 miles south of Bridgwater.
