DESCRIPTION
A splendid three bedroom detached bungalow, set on a 1/4 acre plot, in a quiet area of the desirable village of Westbury Sub Mendip. The property has been within the same family ownership since 1976 and is now in need of updating, offering a wonderful opportunity to place your own mark. The property is available with no onward chain.
Upon entering the bungalow is a spacious entrance porch, with space for shoes and coats, with a door opening to a central hallway, again with further storage. The kitchen can be found to the rear of the property with a lovely South-Westerly view overlooking the gardens and countryside in the distance. The kitchen features an array of fitted units, a larder cupboard, space for a freestanding cooker along with an area for a breakfast table to seat two. The sitting/dining room is a well-proportioned, dual aspect room benefitting from an abundance of natural light with large windows looking out over both the front gardens and the rear of the property. The room has ample space for a large dining table and chairs along with comfortable seating and a stone faced fireplace as the focal point. The fireplace has a gas connection but could equally be adapted to fit a wood burner or open fire if desired. The open plan reception room has sliding doors out to the rear path and gardens of the property whilst also benefitting from views across the village and countryside in the distance.
From the central hall are three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom can be found to the front of the property looking out over gardens, bedroom two has the benefit of fitted storage and the third double bedroom has a view over the rear gardens and countryside in the distance. The bathroom comprises a bath with shower attachment, WC and wash hand basin with an additional WC with wash hand basin adjacent.

The property is approached from Back Lane, with a 120ft frontage and a gate opening to a parking area, which can comfortably accommodate five or six cars, leading to a single garage. A path around the property provides access to the side and rear gardens. The garden to the front features an area of lawn, mature shrubs, trees with a pathway leading from the parking area to the front door. The South-West garden to the rear is mainly laid to lawn with mature trees, flowers, shrubs and hedging. Doors from the sitting room open to a rear patio/path which could be extended, if desired, to create a wonderful area for outside seating and dining with stunning countryside views in the distance.
