Description

This spacious detached house, a notable example of 1920s architecture, has been held by the same owners for three decades. Offering significant living space at 3,265 square feet, the property features five reception rooms and five generous double bedrooms, creating ample room for family life or potential reconfiguration. Set on approximately 0.75 acres of established landscaped gardens that back onto open countryside, this property benefits from a double garage and extensive driveway parking. The outdoor area is ripe for further enhancement, offering an attractive environment for gatherings or quiet relaxation. One compelling aspect of this property is its investment potential. It comes with Full Planning Permission (ref 42/22/0058) for the demolition of existing outbuildings and construction of a new detached dwelling within the grounds—ideal for developing additional living space or creating a rental income opportunity. The approved plan outlines a gross internal area of 2,836 square feet. Inside, the layout begins with an Entrance Hall featuring parquet flooring that leads to various reception areas including a Living Room with garden access, a Dining Room equipped with an open fireplace and direct garden views, and a large Kitchen/Breakfast Room fitted with high-end appliances such as an Aga and granite work surfaces. Additional rooms comprise a Utility Room, Games Room, Snug, Study with fitted storage solutions, and five well-sized bedrooms including a Master suite with built-in wardrobes and ensuite facilities. Located on the edge of Trull village—known for its community-focused amenities such as local shops, schools, and sports facilities—the property also affords easy access to Taunton town center just 1.5 miles away. Taunton offers diverse shopping options from independent boutiques to well-known retailers along with dining establishments and recreational spaces including the County Cricket Ground. The town's excellent transport links include a mainline railway station providing direct service to London Paddington in under two hours and convenient access to the M5 motorway via junction 25. Educational opportunities are robust in this area with several reputable state and independent schools nearby. For those who enjoy outdoor activities, the surrounding region boasts proximity to stunning natural landscapes such as the Brendon Hills, Blackdown Hills, Quantock Hills, and Exmoor National Park—all within easy reach for walking or cycling pursuits.
