The Property - Nestled in a sought-after cul-de-sac and just a short walk along the traffic-free path into town, this extensively upgraded modern home offers a stylish and spacious layout, perfect for anyone seeking a low-maintenance property with character. The current owner has enhanced the home with energy-saving features, including solar panels, batteries, EV charging point, an air source heat pump, and optional air conditioning—all equipped with HEPA filters to reduce pollen and allergens. Well presented throughout, this property is an ideal choice for those looking to downsize to a convenient, low-hassle home with lower outgoings.

Accommodation - Beautiful engineered oak flooring flows throughout the ground floor, beginning in the entrance hallway. To one side, a convenient downstairs cloakroom is perfectly placed, while at the rear, a modern kitchen features sleek white units, including a NEFF induction hob with under-counter oven and a stainless steel cooker hood. The kitchen also provides space for a slimline dishwasher, washing machine, and a fridge freezer.

The spacious living/dining room boasts a Portuguese limestone fireplace creating a nice focal point (the gas fire is no longer in use due to the switch to solar energy). On the first floor, the master bedroom suite sits above the living room, offering a generous sense of space and a practical layout, complete with ample fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. An additional cupboard houses the upgraded Vaillant hot water system, which includes a myenergi Eddi hot water diverter, allowing any surplus solar energy to heat the hot water if preferred.

There are two further bedrooms, including a large walk-in over-stairs wardrobe in bedroom two, and a separate family bathroom, completing the versatile and well-thought-out accommodation.

Outside - At the rear, a fully enclosed garden enjoys a sunny westerly aspect and has been thoughtfully landscaped for low maintenance, featuring artificial grass and gravelled areas. An outdoor tap adds convenience. At the back of the garage, a practical timber workshop provides an ideal space for hobbyists or additional garden storage, with a door leading directly into the garage, which has an electric up-and-over door. The garage also houses the solar panel inverter, two solar panel batteries and EV charging point.

Situation - Bushs Orchard is part of a modern development on the southern side of the town and ideally placed for families with a level walk to the recreation ground, play area and tennis courts, and close to the start of the Ilminster - Chard traffic free cycle path.
