Dandos Lane, Wedmore, BS28

On a beautiful, extensive, leafy-green plot, in an enviable village location is this substantial four-bedroom bungalow, with large reception rooms and double garage, which is now in need of some serious love and attention.

As a beloved home over many decades, its faded charm is still apparent. It presents a rare opportunity for anyone with a passion for a project, happy to embark on structural work, to create a magnificent home in a sought-after location. The word ‘bungalow’ almost underestimates its size and versatility. Adapted to accommodate multi-generational living, the layout allows for an independent living space with its own kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and entrance at the front of the property. At the rear, glazed sliding doors from the sitting room and dining room open out to a south-facing terrace. The sitting room is a large, light room with an exposed stone chimney breast with electric fire. The practical layout places the dining room next to the kitchen, suggesting a possible ‘knock-though’ opportunity to create a sociable family hub. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of wall and base units, with an adjoining utility providing further space for storage and appliances, whilst an enclosed porch offers space for muddy boots. A welcoming entrance hall divides the property into bedrooms and annexe on one side and the main living space on the other. The hallway leads to all four bedrooms; a spacious bathroom with corner bath, wash-hand basin, bidet and WC; and a cloakroom with wash-hand basin and WC. As previously mentioned, at the far end of the hall, beyond the bedrooms, is the second kitchen and bathroom. This kitchen is also fitted with a range of wall and base units with space for a breakfast table. Sliding doors open into a conservatory which overlooks the front garden. A well-appointed bathroom is fitted with a shower, a bath, a wash-hand basin, and WC. The heating and hot water are serviced by two separate boilers.

On a plot of just under half an acre, the property is approached via a driveway with parking for multiple vehicles and access to the double garage. Tranquil gardens border the house at the front and back and are mainly laid to lawn with a backdrop of mature trees and shrubs. Paved paths and terracing encircle the bungalow and provide sociable and relaxing outdoor spaces from which to enjoy the beautiful gardens.
