Lower Odcombe, Yeovil, BA22

An outstanding detached bungalow of impressive proportions benefitting from extensive modernisation throughout. Three bedrooms, large reception room with far reaching views, generously sized gardens and a garage.


2 Coathays is a deceptively spacious detached bungalow situated in an elevated position enjoying far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. The property is situated in an elevated position above the road and very much in the heart of this conveniently located village.

The property has been the subject of extensive modernisation over the last few years with numerous improvements to include updated kitchen and bathroom and en-suite facilities.

Further improvements include the installation of a multi fuel burner, re-plastering of ceilings, garden landscaping and the installation of photo-voltaic solar panels to aid energy efficiency and bring down costs.

The internal accommodation is accessed via a oak porch with useful storage for outerwear and boots etc. A handmade oak front door opens into the spacious and welcoming entrance hall, laid with Douglas Fir wooden flooring which continues into the adjoining reception room.

The particularly large sitting room benefits from an abundance of natural light with the two front windows providing stunning far reaching views across the surrounding countryside which forms part of the village’s conservation area. The fireplace forms a wonderful central feature, inset with an eco friendly multi fuel burner.

The kitchen/diner has been brilliantly modernised with a wide range of fitted wall and base units, under cabinet lighting, integrated eye level double oven, hob with extractor over and space for additional appliances. The breakfast bar is ideal for informal dining as well as adding to the sociable element of the room. French doors at the front and rear provide plenty of natural light whilst the cleverly positioned dining area enjoys the wonderful views from the front of the property.

The master bedroom has been tastefully decorated and comprises fitted wardrobes along with a well appointed en-suite shower room. This large double room features French doors opening onto the patio in the rear garden.

The second double bedroom enjoys lovely far reaching views from the large front aspect window and features two double built in wardrobes. The third bedroom is a further good size double situated at the rear of the property with views across the garden.

The family shower room has been finished to a high standard and comprises a large walk in shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC within a vanity unit along with a full height heated towel rail.
