A delightful three-bedroom period house, occupying a lovely position close to Taunton Town Centre. The house was built circa 1897 and has been loved and cared for by the current owners since 2007. You enter through the front door into the entrance hall, with beautiful ornate original features, stairs rising to the first floor and doors opening to the principal rooms.
The living room is situated at the front of the house and enjoys high ceilings and a bay window at the front providing lots of natural light. The dining room is situated in the middle of the house and is a good size, has an under stairs cupboard and an opening through to the kitchen. Being an end terrace, the room also benefits from a window to the side aspect.
The Owners Love - The current owners have loved the convenience and close proximity of Taunton town centre and all its amenities just a short distance from the front door. They particularly love “the original features and character of the house” which have been well preserved. They will mostly miss “The vehicle access to the rear garden. It is unusual for a Victorian house, and it has been really convenient for off road parking, even if it’s in front the gates on the street”.
The kitchen is located at the rear of the house and benefits from a variety of wall and base units with work surfaces over and inset sink. There is a built-in electric oven, with a four-ring gas hob and hood over. There is also space for a fridge/freezer and plumbing for the washing machine and a dishwasher. From the kitchen, there is a door opening to the rear garden.
Upstairs, on the first-floor landing, there are doors to two of the bedrooms and family bathroom. The master bedroom is a great size and benefits from two windows to the front aspect and an original ceiling rose. The second bedroom has a window to the rear aspect overlooking the garden and a built-in wardrobe. The bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite including bath with shower over, WC and washbasin. A second staircase leads up from the landing to the third bedroom in the loft, with lots of built in storage and a window to the rear aspect.
George Loves - “I love the opportunity this property offers! This one has original features that lots of homes from this era have lost and being an end terrace and arranged over three floors, this is a versatile house. This house has just had a new heating system installed, which is one thing you don’t need to think about. The option of off-road parking is also very unusual in the middle of town which is a real bonus. There are lots of possibilities to really make this place your own!”
Outside, to the rear of the property there is a private and low maintenance courtyard garden. The space is predominantly brick paved, with flower bed borders. There is secure, side gated access from Blake Street, which gives the option to bring a vehicle in and park off road if desired. However, the owner has utilised the option to park on street in front the gates and keep the garden for recreational use as well.
