Quantock Rise, Kingston St. Mary, Taunton, Somerset, TA2

Beautifully presented and thoughtfully upgraded, we offer this detached chalet.

Situated in an enviable position along a private road on the edge of the ever-popular village of Kingston St Mary, 7 Quantock Rise is a superbly presented detached chalet bungalow enjoying attractive countryside views to the front and beautifully landscaped gardens surrounding the property.

Occupying a generous plot, this individual home has been comprehensively renovated and significantly improved by the current owners since 2021, creating a stylish and versatile property perfectly suited to modern family living. Upgrades include complete rewiring, a new central heating system, replacement windows, redecoration throughout, and the refitting of the kitchen, shower room and ensuite, whilst the gardens have been thoughtfully redesigned to create a series of attractive outdoor spaces. The property further benefits from a single garage and extensive driveway parking for several vehicles.

The well-planned accommodation is both spacious and flexible. An entrance porch opens into a welcoming dining/family room, a wonderful central hub of the home, featuring sliding patio doors opening onto the garden and stairs rising to the first floor. The adjoining sitting room enjoys a cosy yet light-filled atmosphere, enhanced by a multi-fuel burning stove and French doors providing direct access to the outside.

The contemporary kitchen has been tastefully refitted and offers an excellent range of wall and base units with complimentary work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. Integrated appliances include a double oven, electric hob and extractor hood, with further space for a dishwasher and tall fridge freezer. A door provides convenient access to the gardens.

On the ground floor are two generous double bedrooms, including an attractive principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and delightful views over the landscaped gardens. A stylish modern shower room and separate WC complete the accommodation on this level.

The first floor offers excellent flexibility with two further bedrooms, one benefiting from its own ensuite bathroom. Useful eaves storage can also be found on this floor.

The property occupies a private yet central location in this highly favoured village which lies 3 miles to the north of the county town of Taunton, on the foot slopes of the Quantock Hills, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and where many bridle and footpaths can be enjoyed. The village itself is regarded as one of the premier settlements in the Taunton Vale district and is dominated by an interesting mix of principally character properties. A popular pub, primary school and attractive parish Church are present whilst Taunton is an easy drive some 3 miles away where upon a wide range of shopping, recreational and scholastic facilities can be found including three noted Public Schools. Taunton offers good communication links with the rest of the UK with fast rail service to London Paddington and M5 interchange (J25). International airports can be found at both Bristol and Exeter, both within an hour’s drive.

Outside, the property's landscaped gardens are a particular highlight, having been carefully designed to provide areas for relaxation, entertaining and enjoyment throughout the seasons. Combined with its private setting, countryside outlook and high-quality improvements throughout, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive village home in one of the area's most sought-after locations.
