The Owners Love - The current owners have loved the location and “the rural community feel, whilst still being able to walk into the village”. Their favourite thing about living in the house is the position and the ‘outlook from the front over green space in front and the Blackdown Hills beyond”. They are particularly proud of the work they have done in the house “which has really taken it to the next level and given it the finish a house of this calibre deserves”. They will mostly miss “the lovely neighbours, it is such a friendly place to live!” They have also found the area to be very family friendly with children enjoying playing outside in the summer months and a brilliant park just around the corner.
There are four reception rooms to enjoy, with a study and playroom positioned at the front of the house, each with a lovely outlook across to the Blackdown Hills. The living room is situated at the rear of the house and is a fantastic size, with a gas feature fire. There are then French doors to the garden room, formally a conservatory, which has now had a new roof to enable the room to be used all year road. From here, there are French doors opening to the rear patio.
Upstairs, on the first floor landing, there is an airing cupboard, loft access hatch and doors to the bedrooms and family bathroom. The master bedroom is a spectacular size and has windows to dual aspects. It also benefits from a dressing area, with two double built in wardrobes, providing ample storage and has a window overlooking the rear garden. It also enjoys en suite facilities with a four-piece suite, including a large shower, bath, washbasin, WC.

The family bathroom is fully tiled and is fitted with a four-piece suite including WC, wash basin, bath and shower cubicle.
George Loves - “I was blown away by just how well presented the house was from top to bottom! Having sold for this vendor previously, I know just what high standards they have. It has clearly been so well thought out and by the owners. Not often would I say this, but this is genuinely presented to a ‘show home’ standard. It makes this property really stand out as something extra special compared to the competition in the area. An absolute must see house!”
Outside, to the rear of the property there is a tastefully landscaped and secluded garden, which enjoys a good degree of privacy considering the estate setting. Initially, there is an upgraded and extended patio area, which steps up onto a lawn, with fenced boarders and a selection of raised, well-stocked flowerbeds. There is a side gate and a pedestrian door with access to the double garage with a tarmac driveway in front, and recently replaced electric roller doors.
