Step inside and you’re greeted by a wide central hallway that forms the heart of the home. To the rear, the spacious 19'7" living room offers a calm and comfortable retreat, with glazed double doors opening to the 11'1" conservatory — a perfect spot to enjoy the garden outlook whatever the weather. The 15'0" kitchen/breakfast room is a practical and social space, with room for a dining table and direct access out to the garden. Adjacent is a flexible third bedroom, which also works beautifully as a dining room, snug or home office, depending on your lifestyle needs. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, featuring a bay window, built-in wardrobe space and its own ensuite shower room. The second bedroom is another good-sized double with a fitted wardrobe, served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Storage is a key strength of this property, with three built-in cupboards, plus a large airing cupboard. The layout is well-balanced, and the finish throughout is a credit to the current owners — offering a home that feels both welcoming and move-in ready. Outside, the bungalow enjoys a level and extremely private plot, with a low-maintenance garden wrapping around the rear and side. There is also an attached 17'9" garage, and a generous driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles. This quiet residential setting offers the best of both worlds — moments from beautiful countryside walks yet close to local amenities and just a short drive from the centre of Minehead. Bungalows of this quality, in such a well-regarded development, rarely come to market — especially those offering privacy, flexibility and no onward chain.
