Description

This spacious detached bungalow offers a prime opportunity for renovation and investment on a generous plot of approximately a fifth of an acre. Located on the desirable West Coker Road, just on the outskirts of Yeovil, the property features a large, south-facing garden that benefits from abundant sunlight, making it an ideal setting for outdoor enhancements or landscaping projects. The bungalow itself is double-fronted and has a versatile layout with 1,395 square feet of living space. It includes an entrance reception hall leading to a comfortable sitting room with a gas fire and views of the rear garden. The kitchen/breakfast room provides ample space for culinary endeavors and features integrated appliances as well as room for additional upgrades. Adjoining it is a conservatory/dining area that opens directly onto the garden, further expanding the living space and potential for entertaining. With three double bedrooms, this property accommodates families or could easily be transformed for short-term rentals or passive income opportunities. Each bedroom is comfortably sized and filled with natural light, allowing for various design ideas aimed at increasing value through modern touches. The residence boasts essential amenities such as gas central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout. Parking will not be an issue here; there is extensive driveway space suitable for six to seven vehicles that leads to a sizable detached tandem garage/workshop—perfect for those who may wish to pursue hobbies or need additional storage solutions. Positioned within walking distance to Yeovil’s vibrant town center—home to shops, cafes, restaurants, and essential services—and just a short drive from mainline railway connections to London Waterloo in about two hours, this property’s location enhances its appeal as both a family home and investment property. With no onward chain, this bungalow presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to put their stamp on a home while reaping long-term benefits in one of Yeovil's more sought-after areas. The potential extensions at both sides and the rear—as well as possibilities for loft conversion—further underscore its investment viability (subject to obtaining planning permissions).
