Description
Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of the picturesque village of Shapwick, this exceptionally presented detached bungalow offers 1,934 sq ft of versatile single-storey accommodation, set within a generous, beautifully landscaped plot. Perfectly suited to a growing family, those looking to downsize without compromise, or anyone seeking a peaceful rural retreat, this is a genuinely special home offering flexibility, style and space in equal measure.
DESCRIPTION:
Approached via a sweeping driveway providing ample parking, the property presents an attractive stone-built facade beneath a traditional tiled roof, complemented by mature planting and neatly kept borders. A part-glazed storm porch, with feature brick detailing, provides a welcoming entrance and leads through to a bright and spacious reception hall at the heart of the home.
The living accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to flow effortlessly from room to room, whilst remaining accessible independently from the spacious central hallway, and offers real flexibility to suit however you choose to live. At its heart lies an impressive, dual-aspect lounge, generous enough to comfortably accommodate several seating areas with a stylish modern fireplace as the centrepiece, and opening through to a light-filled conservatory that takes full advantage of the views over the rear garden - a wonderful spot to relax whatever the season.

OUTSIDE:
The generous and immaculate internal accommodation is matched by this property's generous and beautifully landscaped plot. To the rear, a substantial and recently installed resin bound patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, as well as ease of access, before leading onto a large expanse of neatly maintained lawn bordered by well-established hedging and mature planting. The secluded setting and corner plot arrangement ensure excellent privacy, whilst glimpses of the surrounding countryside and the distant Mendip Hills can be enjoyed from elevated positions. A curved path connects to a summer house at the rear of the plot — also ideal for enjoying the peaceful, semi-rural surroundings. To the front, the property benefits from a double garage with remote doors and extensive driveway parking for at least four cars, along with the practical benefit of solar panels, adding valuable energy efficiency to this already impressive home.

Residents of the village can enjoy an abundance of stunning countryside and two nature reserves within 2 miles.
