This is a well-presented, spacious four bedroom detached 1930's family home, offered for sale for the first time in 59 years. The property is set within large well-manicured gardens to the front and rear. The property has been well-maintained and looked after by its current owner and is approached by the entrance hall which leads to all rooms. The large light sitting room opens into the conservatory which gives a great view of the garden on all sides. The hallway also leads to the dining room which has a large bay window overlooking the garden. The kitchen lies to the front of the property with matching base and wall units with granite worktops. The utility room is accessed via the kitchen or from the driveway. There is a good size study and downstairs cloakroom. The stairs lead up from the hallway to the first floor where there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, along with a separate W.C. and family bathroom. Viewing is highly recommended.

The property lies about 1 mile to the south of the centre of Taunton, very close to local conveniences at Mountfields, including convenience stores and post office and a regular local bus service operates into the town centre. King’s College, The Richard Huish Sixth Form College and Bishop Fox's Senior School are all within walking distance and a primary school is also close at hand. Taunton offers a wide range of shopping facilities and is the administrative headquarters for the County. Good communication links are afforded with the rest of the UK with rail link to London (Paddington) as well as motorway access at M5 interchange (Junction 25). South Road is widely regarded as one of the best addresses in the town and in the agent's opinion this is a most incredible example of one of the properties in the road.

The property is approached off the road onto the private gravelled driveway which provides off road parking for plenty of cars. There is a mature garden with a fence and mature hedging, shrubs and flower border with a garage. The rear garden can be accessed via double wooden gates and provides a good degree of privacy. The large garden really is a fantastic space for entertaining and alfresco dining. The garden boasts lots of features including a pond, private seating area at the rear, lovely patio area sheltered by a summer house, lots of mature plants, shrubs and trees including an apple tree. The plot extends to 0.19 of an acre.
