The rural idyll of Capton offers peaceful seclusion, while the gardens are a true delight—lush, productive, and boasting breathtaking countryside views!

The quarry-tiled flooring and tiled splashbacks add character, while the ample space accommodates modern family living. Completing the ground floor is the family bathroom, equipped with a white suite including a panelled bath, pedestal washbasin, and low-level WC, all set against a quarry-tiled floor.

Ascending the stairs, the first-floor landing offers far-reaching views of the Quantock Hills and access to the roof space and airing cupboard.
