This substantial, detached property occupies a plot of around a third of an acre on the fringes of the civil parish village of Chedzoy and is only a short drive away from the M5 and Bridgwater town centre.

The spacious five-bedroom family home comes with the bonus of its own outdoor swimming pool and surrounding patio, which is a wonderful addition, especially in warmer weather.

Inside, the house is presented in superb decorative order with an array of fine fixtures and fittings and individual modern touches that add style and comfort.

The living room is a bright and airy space with a handy L-shape and patio doors opening to the garden. The generously sized snug is a welcoming and cosy space with a traditional fireplace and a pine-panelled ceiling.

The kitchen/dining room has a sleek, contemporary look with a galley-style array of fitted high-shine cupboards, with complementary work surfaces and ample space for appliances. This flows into a separate utility which houses a downstairs shower room. A multi-use office room, currently used as a gym, completes the ground floor.

On the first floor, there’s a well-appointed family bathroom and five bedrooms, four being doubles and the other a good-size single. The principal bedroom has a dual aspect and a luxurious ensuite with a large walk-in shower. The guest bedroom has built-in wardrobes and a shower cubicle.

Outside, three sets of patio doors lead out from the house to the swimming pool and its surrounding patio. This leads onto the rear garden where there are two ponds and a gate to the driveway. The driveway can accommodate several vehicles and leads to a double garage.
