Description

Having undergone numerous updates by the current homeowners, this well presented two bedroom linked detached bungalow sits on a generous plot and benefits from oil fired central heating, garage, driveway parking and a landscaped southerly facing garden.

The well-proportioned accommodation on offer briefly comprises an entrance porch with newly fitted uPVC door leading, via a step, into a generous hallway with access to all principal rooms. The lounge is positioned to the rear of the property and enjoys a log burner sat on a stone hearth creating a real focal point to the room. This room is further enhanced by pine flooring and large patio doors cleverly positioned to take advantage of views over the rear garden. An archway leads into the kitchen which offers a range of wall and base units with ample space for everyday kitchen appliances and features a large window overlooking the pretty rear garden.

The sleeping accommodation is positioned away from the living space and offers two double bedrooms both of which are served by the fully tiled family bathroom which benefits from a white three-piece suite with shower over the bath and complemented by a heated towel rail.

The property benefits from a very substantial boarded loft storage area (measuring 21ft by 13.5ft), accessed by a convenient drop-down step ladder. The loft area also has two electric power points and LED lighting.

Externally, the property benefits from a pleasant approach and sits within a similar mixture of two and three bedroom bungalows. The front gardens are fully enclosed by a mature beech hedgerow which also gives an element of privacy. A block paviour driveway provides parking for one vehicle leading to an attached single garage which is connected to power and lighting and benefits from an electric roll-up door along with plenty of useful shelving and a personnel door to the rear garden. Side gated access leads to the fully enclosed southerly facing rear terraced garden which enjoys a sunny aspect and an area of patio perfect for morning coffee. Steps lead to a further area of garden which also offers a useful shed along with an array of mature planting. Furthermore, there is a covered area off the rear of the bungalow which is currently used for storage and doubles up as a handy utility area providing plumbing for a washing machine. This area also houses the oil-fired combi boiler.

LOCATION

Prowses is situated in this popular cul-de-sac on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Hemyock on the banks of the River Culm. Hemyock lies amid the beautiful rolling countryside of the Blackdown Hills on the Devon/Somerset border in a region recognised as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is the largest in the Blackdown Hills and has a rich and varied history dating back to pre-historic times. A strong tradition of local farming culminated in a group of local farmers starting the first mechanically operated butter factory in the west of England. The Cadbury family famous for their quality chocolate also originated from Hemyock. The remains of the 12th century Hemyock Castle can be seen in the village, having been beautifully preserved alongside the magnificent St Marys Church. The village has an excellent range of local amenities to include, village school, medical facilities, village store, post office, parish hall, playing fields and popular local inn....

Many people from outside the area know the location of Wellington, without realising it, as it lies just off the M5 to the west of Taunton set in glorious countryside marked by a monument to the Duke of Wellington high on the Blackdown Hills. It is this peaceful environment that draws buyers for its convenient commute along with excellent sporting and educational facilities. There is also the lure of the easily reached north and south coasts at Minehead and Sidmouth.  

Wellington is a pleasant and relatively compact town with good shopping facilities, including a Waitrose store, two medical centres and a famous park which is listed Grade 2 by English Heritage. There is a good community spirit and many clubs and organisations covering most hobbies and interests. The focal point in Wellington is the interesting 15th century church. There is a frequent daily coach service from Wellington to London.

The Somerset County Town of Taunton is about 7 miles away to which there is a regular bus service from Wellington and also a park and ride. Taunton has a main line railway station, bus station, major shops, county cricket ground and a comprehensive array of events occurring throughout the year. 

Wellington has its own motorway interchange M5 junction 26 and approximate journey times are Exeter (Park and Ride) 30 minutes, Bristol (Portway Park and Ride) 60 minutes. Plymouth 75 minutes. The Regional International airports at Bristol and Exeter are both reached within the hour.
