Penn Hill, Yeovil, Somerset

THE AGENT SAYS...
A wonderfully light and spacious bungalow, 35 Penn Hill is a literal hidden gem, tucked away on the side of the hill and almost invisible from the street. The property is presented in excellent order and has the optimum layout for a bungalow - the living and sleeping spaces at opposite ends and a central bathroom - with a lovely sense of flow between rooms. Standout features include broken-plan living spaces, a separate utility room, impressive ensuite main bedroom, and a southfacing garden with verdant views over the rooftops.

THE PROPERTY
The front door opens into a good-sized and practical hall with an adjoining utility room. A further door opens into the inner hallway which has doors leading off to all the accommodation. Turning to the right leads into the kitchen/dining room. The design of this room makes the very best of the space available, ensuring free flow between rooms and keeping the working kitchen area safely contained. The kitchen is fitted with a great range of shaker style wall and base units, wooden worktops, and a tiled splashback. A peninsula divides the working kitchen from the dining area, providing extra work space and a sociable area for food preparation/entertaining. The dining area can comfortably accommodate a family dining table and patio doors lead out to a delightful south-facing terrace.

Bifold doors between the dining area and the sitting room create the perfect blend of separation and open plan living . The sitting room is wonderfully bright, with large windows on the south and west elevations and high windows on the north side. There are views out over the garden and over the rooftops to the fields and trees beyond.

Central to the bungalow are bedroom two and the family bathroom and at the opposite end is the main bedroom. Bedroom one is a generous double bedroom with lovely views, fitted wardrobes, and a most impressive ensuite. The ensuite bathroom comprises a bath, spacious separate shower, combination vanity wash basin and WC, plenty of concealed storage, and countertop space for everyday essentials.

OUTSIDE
The property is set on the side of the hill, below street level, with views over the surrounding trees and countryside. At the front there is offroad parking and a detached garage. There are two gates at the front of the house - one alongside the drive and one from the pavement - each with steps and railings leading down to the front door. A paved path leads along the front of the bungalow to the garden. The lawned garden is fully enclosed by walling. The high wall at the front has a bank in front of it which has been planted with abundant shrubs. The lawned garden is a good size and wraps around the end and back of the bungalow. It is enclosed by half height walls which create a wonderful sense of space. A few steps alongside the rear of the house lead up to the terrace outside the dining room.
