Description

A much loved and well maintained two bedroom detached bungalow, having been enjoyed by the current owners for approximately 22 years, occupying a particularly private lane position with two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a good sized rear garden, garage and generous driveway parking for up to six vehicles. The property has been carefully looked after throughout and offers comfortable, well proportioned accommodation.

The bungalow is situated in the popular Somerset village of Henstridge, close to the Dorset border and within easy reach of the village amenities and surrounding countryside. Henstridge is well placed for access to nearby towns including Sherborne, Wincanton, Sturminster Newton and Shaftesbury, while Templecombe, less than two miles away, has a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo.

The accommodation includes a good sized sitting room with a gas fire and large front window, a separate dining room with access to the rear garden and a fitted kitchen with a serving hatch to the dining room. There are two double bedrooms, both with built-in storage, with the rear bedroom also benefiting from an en suite shower room. The family bathroom has a bath with electric shower over, WC and wash hand basin, while a good sized conservatory provides additional space and useful provision for laundry appliances.

Outside, the front garden was landscaped approximately five years ago and is complemented by a substantial driveway providing parking for up to six vehicles. The rear garden is private and mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs, fruit trees, a patio and potting shed, together with access to both sides of the bungalow. There is also a single garage with power, shelving, racking and a workbench.

The kitchen is fitted with a good range of eye and floor level cupboards with laminate worktops and glossy finished doors, together with a double electric oven, gas hob and Rangemaster.
