The house was built in the mid 1960’s and has been in the care of the current owners since 2018. During the past five years, they have tastefully styled the house to create a beautiful family home. You enter through the porch, with a front door opening into the internal hall, with stairs rising to the first floor and a door opening to the living room.

The Owners Love - The current owners have loved the house and really enjoyed it over the past 5 years. They said “We will be sad to leave, but we are ready to upsize to something a little bigger. This is a great home and deserves a couple/family to come in, like we did 5 years ago, and enjoy it”. They also said “we love the quiet, tucked away position and the fact that we can see the Blackdown Hills in the distance from the front bedrooms”. They will mostly miss “our private garden, which is a real suntrap, and al the built in storage!”

George Loves - “I love value for money that this home offers. It is really well looked after, and offers plenty of living space for a family to enjoy. I also think that the easy access to the Quantock Hills offers an excellent lifestyle option to explore the area of outstanding natural beauty.”

Taunton and Surrounding area

Fact: Taunton was the first town in the country to be permanently lit by electric street lighting in 1881

Taunton is the County Town of Somerset with the town name deriving from “Town on the River Tone” or “Tone Town” nestled between the Quantock and Blackdown Hills.  Voted as the happiest place to live in the South West according to the Rightmove Happy at Home Index, with the index painting a picture of it as a place where people look after their homes and have time for their neighbours.  Taunton’s bustling Town Centre offers many High Street shops, Bars and Restaurants, however if you are looking for something a little more boutique, we recommend you explore Bath Place and Taunton independent quarter along St James Street.
