Wincanton, Somerset, BA9

The front door opens to a spacious hallway with a useful understairs cupboard. To your right a door opens to a modern stylish kitchen with an excellent selection of fitted units and range style cooker. The kitchen seamlessly flows into the dining room (formerly the living room) providing a sociable layout ideal for everyday family life. The new living room was created by building a single storey ground floor extension which enjoys an outlook over the rear garden. Moving upstairs, there is a stylish family bathroom with table top wash basin and three bedrooms.

Venturing outside, to the front there is off road parking for several cars, and a side gate leads through to a delightful rear garden being of a very good size with a raised timber decked terrace ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining.

We highly recommend an internal viewing of this wonderful family home.
