Notting Hill Way, Lower Weare, Axbridge, BS26

Beautifully presented, warm and welcoming, three-bedroom bungalow with spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living room opening out onto a lovely garden with paved terracing, kitchen garden, garage, workshop and driveway parking.

In the heart of the village of Weare, perfectly positioned for ease of access to commuter routes, local schools or countryside pursuits, this lovely bungalow, nestled within its mature gardens, has been well-maintained and benefits from being on a good-sized, level plot. The ‘wow’ factor is the unexpected open-plan kitchen and living space with French doors to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with modern wooden wall and base units topped with contrasting worktops with a wide peninsular overlooking the dining area and providing plenty of useful worksurface. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, a gas hob and a dishwasher, and there is space for a fridge/freezer. An adjacent laundry cupboard provides space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The light, open sitting room and dining area span over 25ft and have windows and glazed doors opening out onto the rear garden. A contemporary, free-standing log burning stove is a fabulous focal point of this inviting room. Of the four bedrooms, the principal bedroom benefits from the ensuite shower room and plenty of space for a large double bed and other furniture, whilst the other three versatile bedrooms share a modern family bathroom and offer potential for home office/play room/craft room if not needed as bedrooms.

The bungalow is set back on its plot with lovely mature gardens to the front and to the rear. A driveway leads to the single garage and provides plenty of parking for numerous vehicles. The garage and the adjoining workshop, along with the L-shape of the bungalow, encircle the rear garden on three sides, providing a private and secure space to relax and enjoy the garden and its wildlife. The level gardens are an abundance of colour and texture, thoughtfully designed with seating areas, raised vegetable beds, greenhouse, and summerhouse.
