A rare opportunity to acquire a 2-bedroom bungalow in the highly desirable village of Drayton, with large south-facing garden and planning permission to significantly extend.
Stream Farm Bungalow occupies a favourable spot on School Street in this highly sought-after village. The property enjoys a 0.17 acre south-facing plot and benefits from planning permission to extend and greatly enhance, creating a fine 4-bed home (23/01431/HOU).
The bungalow is accessed from the side through a glazed PVC door which leads into a small lobby/porch area, which benefits from a large cupboard/store to the side with ample storage space. Beyond the lobby is the utility area, with space for a tumble-drier and also accessing the cloakroom with WC. A door to one side leads into the sitting/dining room, which is a generous size, with feature brick fireplace and south facing aspect, helping create a bright room. Glazed patio doors lead out to the garden whilst a second door leads back round to the kitchen, connecting back to the utility.
The kitchen is fitted with a clean range of wall and base units with wood-effect worktops and tiled splashbacks over, one-and-a-half ceramic sink with drainer, electric cooker with 4-ring hob and extractor over, space and plumbing for washing machine, in addition to a pantry cupboard. The property features two double bedrooms, with access for bed 2 currently through bed 1, but could easily be reconfigured to have separate entrances. Completing the accommodation is the shower room, featuring shower cubicle and wash basin.
OUTSIDE
The bungalow features a good sized, south-facing plot. Immediately adjacent to the bungalow is a large patio, ideal for al-fresco dining, with the remainder of the garden laid almost entirely to lawn. A tarmac drive leads up from the gated road access, to the carport. A large birch tree is a particular feature, whilst the garden also hosts a shed and greenhouse, whilst the majority of the plot is bounded by a post and rail fence.
SITUATION
Stream Farm Bungalow is located in the much favoured South Somerset village of Drayton, the majority of which is designated as a Conservation Area in order to preserve its character and the many fine period properties of various styles. The village has a parish church, a popular inn and a village hall, where there is a strong community presence with various organisations and events.
Langport, just over two miles away, is a pleasant market town with excellent everyday amenities including supermarket, banking and Post Office services, doctors' and dentists' surgeries, pubs/inns, cafés, veterinary surgery and excellent schooling facilities at the nearby Huish Episcopi Academy with adjoining sports centre with facilities for all ages. The River Parrett is hugely popular with numerous walks and river tourism in amongst the fabulous scenery.
