Templecombe, Somerset, BA8

This delightful home is situated in a no through road on a small mature development with countryside views to the rear. The front door opens to a large entrance vestibule providing plenty of space for coats and boots together with potential to be used as a study area. A spacious living room features a wood burning stove as its centrepiece and French doors open to the garden and paved patio ideal for alfresco dining. The kitchen is well equipped with an excellent range of units and seamlessly flows into a dining area which was created by converting part of the garage. Completing the ground floor is a useful utility/boot room.

Moving upstairs, there is a large family bath/shower room, three bedrooms with the master bedroom being of a generous size and featuring a modern stylish en-suite shower room.

Stepping outside, the front garden is mainly laid to lawn with a driveway to one side providing off road parking. The rear garden is of a manageable size and enjoys a sunny aspect.

We highly recommend an internal viewing to fully appreciate this delightful home.

LOCATION: Templecombe is situated in the beautiful Somerset countryside and is well placed for the many amenities on offer, including a mainline railway station (London Waterloo 2hrs), post office, welcoming community café and Co-op convenience store. There is the village Church, primary school and doctor's surgery with dispensary, and the village hall offers space for community clubs (bowls, youth, mums & toddlers), while the recreation ground has a tennis court and skate park. A big attraction of Templecombe is its accessibility, being situated close to both the A303 and the A30 with fast routes east and west towards the motorway network. The mainline station is an obvious draw, while local comprehensive shopping, cultural and leisure amenities are found close by in the towns of Sherborne, Wincanton, Shaftesbury and Yeovil. To the south, the World Heritage Jurassic coast is within easy striking distance. The area is renowned for its schools, both independent and state and the surrounding countryside, much of which is an area of outstanding natural beauty, is a playground for sporting and leisure pursuits such as walking, riding, cycling, golf and field sports. There are village cricket clubs close by and sailing and other water sports are readily accessible on the south coast.
