Read the full agent description

This handsomely proportioned four bedroom detached home enjoys a peaceful position on the outskirts of Glastonbury, within easy reach of the Tor and the ancient Abbey ruins that have drawn pilgrims here for centuries. Extending to some 1,736 sq ft, the accommodation is arranged with family life firmly in mind, and is complemented by a mature, wildlife-friendly, private rear garden, garage and driveway with electric vehicle charging.

The sizeable entrance hall offers an immediate sense of arrival, opening to a study that lends itself equally to home working or quiet retreat, and a discreet cloakroom. The principal reception room is a dual-aspect living room, its atmosphere anchored by a wood burning stove set against a bold feature wall - the kind of room built for long winter evenings. A further formal dining room provides a distinct space for entertaining, while the kitchen/breakfast room forms the true heart of the home: open, sociable and well equipped, with an adjoining utility room to keep the everyday business of family life out of sight. French doors from both kitchen and dining room draw the garden into the house, dissolving the line between the two.

A generous landing, flooded with natural light, leads to four generously sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys the quiet privacy of its own en suite shower room, while three further bedrooms - each with their own outlook over garden or rooftop - share a well-appointed family bathroom with both bath and separate shower. Together they offer the flexibility today's families look for, whether as bedrooms, studies or hobby rooms.

The rear garden is a genuine asset: enclosed, predominantly laid to lawn, and softened by mature hedging and trees that lend it real privacy. A paved patio provides a natural setting for outdoor entertaining, while to the front, a driveway offers parking for several vehicles and leads via a side passage to a detached garage fitted with an EV charging point - an increasingly valuable consideration for today's buyer.

Glastonbury needs little introduction: a town of genuine character, renowned the world over for its Tor and Abbey ruins, and offering an excellent everyday range of shops, banks, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, health centres, schools and public houses. The cathedral city of Wells lies some six miles distant, while Street, two miles away, offers more comprehensive facilities including the Strode Theatre, Strode College, Millfield School, indoor and open-air swimming pools, and Clarks Village with its extensive complex of shopping outlets. For those needing to travel further afield, the M5 motorway is accessible at Junction 23, some 14 miles distant, with Bristol, Bath and Yeovil all within comfortable commuting distance.
