Description

This three-bedroom detached bungalow presents an exciting investment opportunity, featuring breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and a sizeable plot. Offered with no onward chain, the property is in good condition, having been recently updated to include neutral décor throughout. The entrance hall provides practical space for shoes and coats, leading into a sitting room that captures stunning vistas and natural light. The kitchen/dining area at the rear boasts fitted units and electric appliances, alongside ample dining space overlooking the gardens. The bungalow accommodates three well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering pleasant views - two facing the scenic countryside while the third opens towards the garden. A functional shower room includes modern amenities, complemented by a separate w/c. Notably, planning permission (Reference 2020/1195/FUL) is in place to demolish the current structure and build two new three to four-bedroom detached homes with double garages and expansive gardens—ideal for developers or those looking to create neighbouring residences. There’s potential to amend existing plans or explore options such as a loft conversion or extension on the current build. Outside, a generous garden awaits at the rear, predominantly laid to lawn with ornamental shrubs and trees that enhance privacy while providing magnificent countryside views. A single garage adds utility to this already appealing property. Located in West Horrington, part of three charming villages near Wells, this property benefits from picturesque surroundings yet is conveniently positioned within reach of local amenities such as supermarkets, schools, leisure facilities, and transport links including nearby Castle Cary station with services to London Paddington.
