The Owners Love – “It’s the most quiet and peaceful location; an absolute oasis. The green opposite is home to amazing wildlife: I often see a badger or fox at night and am woken by woodpeckers and an amazing dawn chorus! The close proximity, and a private gate through to beautiful countryside walks in Longrun Meadow is wonderful, as well as being easy walking distance to town, and a selection of fantastic primary and secondary schools on the doorstep. This is a great house for entertaining; the kitchen is the ideal space, and the decked area in the garden is an absolute suntrap!”

George Loves - “I was very impressed by just how well presented the house was from top to bottom considering its age! It has clearly been so well looked after and cared for by the owners. The position is also something I was extremely impressed with. Not just the location itself, but the seclusion and outlook too! This house really does need to be seen to be appreciated.”

Outside, to the rear of the house is a mature and secluded garden, which enjoys a good degree of privacy, considering the estate setting. Initially, there is a good size patio area, which leads up to a lawn, with well-stocked borders and a variety of mature trees and shrubs. There is a side gate with giving access to a tarmac driveway in front of the garage. The frontage is then predominantly laid to slate chippings, with a further selection of established shrubs. The other side of the house has a very clever custom built store house, which is in two sections, one accessed from the front, and the other from the rear.

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.
