Whitley Lane, Ashcott, TA7

Cooper and Tanner are delighted to bring to the market this tucked away three bedroom bungalow on the edge of the popular village of Ashcott. The property is in need of modernisation throughout but is a fantastic opportunity to take on a renovation within approximately 5 acres of land. Comprising large gardens and woodland, as well as two separate paddocks, this property would be idea for those wanting a little extra land for equestrian use or those keen to a fairly blank canvass to make something uniquely their own.

ACCOMMODATION:
You enter the property through the front door via a handy porchway. The entrance hall is an open and airy space that provides access through to the principle reception rooms, as well as two downstairs bedrooms, all of which are good sizes. There are two shower rooms on the ground floor. One off the main entrance hall and the other off the utility. The generous kitchen is well-appointed with a range of base and eye level units but offers fabulous potential to create an impressive open plan space through to the dining room. The property includes a larger than average utility room which leads through to the very good sized single garage. To the first floor there is an additional bedroom with views out over the garden. A further attic room is ripe for further conversion and the installation of an en suite shower room (subject to the necessary permissions). This much loved property would now benefit from modernisation, but there is also a huge opportunity for the more imaginative to transform what is a charming chalet style home, into a substantial 'Grand Design' that would not be out of place in this secluded spot.

OUTSIDE:
The house itself is surrounded by nicely landscaped gardens, mostly laid to lawn with an enveloping paved terrace. Many mature trees surround the property, offering a feeling of being surrounded by nature and lending itself to privacy. There are two additional paddocks with the property ideal for those looking for possible equestrian options. The entire plot extending to approximately 5 acres in total. There is a private gated driveway and off-road parking for 4/5 vehicles with ample space to add more.
