The Owners Love - The current owners say, “We have loved the tucked away position and the way our house is on a no through road. It’s just so quiet here”. They particularly love “The open plan layout and entertaining space downstairs which is perfect for modern family life or the occasional party!” They said, “We wanted to create a practical yet social space that is perfect for hosting friends and family”. They will mostly miss “the really secluded feel, whist still being within distance of amenities and transport links. The access to the mainline Taunton train station has been really great.”

It really exceeds expectations as soon as you walk through the front door. I particularly love the open plan kitchen area, which is undoubtably the showpiece of the home. An absolute must see house!”
