Detached house for sale in Bridgwater TA7, 5 Bedroom

This deceptively spacious and particularly well presented detached family home was formerly the old police house for the village, now boasting five double bedrooms together with multiple reception rooms and generous gardens. Early viewing is highly advised to avoid disappointment.

Access is taken from the front elevation with entrance door opening into a spacious reception hallway, where in turn doors lead off to all principal ground floor rooms. The ground floor accommodation is particularly well proportioned, having multiple reception rooms ideal for comfortable family living. A large 'L' shaped sitting/dining room located at the front of the house features an open fireplace and has double doors leading through to a wonderful second lounge. This bright and airy room enjoys patio doors opening onto a south-facing patio that runs the full width of the rear elevation. An open-plan kitchen/diner is a real focal point of the house, centrally located and having the benefit of ample space for a large table and chairs as well as having been fitted with a modern range of wall and base units with worktop surfaces over. The kitchen has a pleasant outlook over the south-facing garden and has doors leading off to a ground floor shower room and utility room with space and plumbing for automatic appliances. The ground floor accommodation has been completed to provide a further large additional reception room, currently utilised by our client as a home study but could ideally make for a fifth double bedrooms for larger families. From the first floor landing there is loft access and doors leading off to four large double bedrooms. The master bedroom in particular is of generous proportions, having a wonderful far reaching outlook across rooftops to distant countryside and enjoying the benefit of a large en-suite shower room. The other three bedrooms can all easily accommodate a king size bed and are serviced by a spacious white suite family bathroom.

The outside space is a great selling point for the property, having a rear garden that takes in a south-facing aspect in its entirety and a paved patio running the full width of the rear elevation. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn with established shrub borders and a timber summerhouse to one side. Rear pedestrian access leads to an area of off road parking at the rear of the house, together with access to a substantial detached garage. Further parking is available at the front of the house with a pull-in sitting in front of an area of lawned front garden.
