Compton Road, South Petherton

A beautifully presented detached three bedroom bungalow with level access at the rear and attractive gardens in one of our most sought-after villages.

The Property - You enter the property through the UPVC double glazed front door into an entrance hall which includes both a coat cupboard and further linen cupboard with slatted shelving. To one side is a bright triple aspect living room overlooking the lovely front and rear gardens, including patio doors at the rear allowing access to the garden from the dining area. A central fireplace houses a real flame effect gas fire, creating a nice focal point although the property also has gas central heating. From the dining area a further opening leads through to the lovely fitted kitchen which also has a nice outlook over the rear garden. It is fitted with a range of modern country-style sage grey units comprising floor and wall mounted storage cupboards and drawers with work surfaces over incorporating one and a half bowl single drainer composite sink unit with mixer tap, finished with attractive polished stone mosaic style splashbacks. There is space and point for a gas or electric cooker. There is a useful adjoining utility room with further storage units and space for both a washing machine and upright fridge freezer. There is also a wall mounted gas boiler for central heating and an additional door opens out onto the rear garden.

There are three bedrooms including two doubles and a single bedroom at the rear which would equally make a lovely study or hobby room. The modern bathroom has been well-designed to include both a separate shower cubicle and bath, vanity wash hand basin and WC.

Outside - To the front, the property is slightly elevated from the road giving a surprising amount of privacy. Steps lead up through a gate to a level, well laid out front garden. There are solid timber gates to both sides of the property giving side and rear access to the garden behind. At the rear, there's a patio and outside tap immediately adjoining the property connecting with a pathway leading through the attractively designed level garden. These include lawn, herbaceous borders and ornamental trees and shrubs. There is a further area of hardstanding near the utility room door with timber garden shed. The path leads you through to the garage at the rear which is accessed via a shared driveway over which this property has a right of way, behind the adjacent properties. The garage has an up and over door to the front.
