Read the full agent description

This attractive 1930s semi-detached home occupies a fantastic position within the highly regarded Parkfield area of Taunton, offering excellent access to some of the town’s most desirable amenities and schooling. The property has been well maintained by the current owners, who have invested in a new heating system, updated electrics and a modern kitchen during their ownership, while still leaving exciting scope for a future purchaser to personalise and further enhance the home.

George Loves - "The combination of the wonderful Parkfield location, the large south-facing garden and the future potential this home offers makes it particularly exciting. Properties in this position, within easy reach of The Castle School, Musgrove Park Hospital and the town centre, are always in strong demand, especially when they still retain their original character and offer scope to add further value over time."

The accommodation is well balanced and ideal for family living. An entrance hall leads through to a spacious bay-fronted lounge positioned to the front of the property, enjoying plenty of natural light and retaining attractive original character features typical of the era. To the rear, a separate dining room overlooks the garden and provides an excellent entertaining space with double doors opening out onto the rear garden.

The kitchen has been refitted in recent years and offers a practical layout with ample worktop and storage space, along with access to a useful downstairs cloakroom. Adjacent to the kitchen is a versatile additional reception room (converted from the garage), currently used as a playroom, which could equally serve as a home office, snug or hobby room depending on requirements.

Owners Love - “We have especially enjoyed the sunny rear garden and the convenience of the location for day-to-day family life. Having excellent schools, the hospital and town centre all within easy reach has made the property incredibly practical, while the generous reception space and adaptable layout have worked brilliantly for modern family living"

Upstairs, the property offers four bedrooms, including two generous double bedrooms and two further well-proportioned rooms, all served by a family shower room.

Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking to the front for several vehicles. To the rear is a particularly impressive south-facing garden which enjoys a high degree of privacy and offers excellent space for families, entertaining and keen gardeners alike.
