Property Description: Guide Price £400,000 - £425,000. Tucked away on the edge of a quiet village on the beautiful Somerset Levels, this newly refurbished and spacious bungalow features open plan living and flexible accommodation as well as a south facing garden. This home is perfect for those looking to downsize to a private countryside location.


Through the porch, the front door opens out into the heart of the home; an open plan sitting room and adjacent dining room. The sitting room has wood-effect laminate flooring, a modern panelled wall, and an electric fire. There is a large cupboard for storage as well as a boarded loft with a pull down ladder. Light floods into the adjoining dining room from the four large windows and French doors to the rear terrace area.


With granite worktops and glossy white fitted units, the contemporary kitchen has many integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer, a wine fridge, a Zanussi induction hob, microwave/grill, electric oven and dishwasher. In the south eastern corner of the open plan living space, there is a beautifully light and bright hallway with a fully glazed window at its end. This hallway leads to a fully tiled shower room which is beautifully designed and has a large shower. The hallway also leads to the front double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and views of the garden. Adjacent is the spacious principal bedroom, which is double aspect and has an extension into a sun room with French doors to the rear terrace.


A door from the dining room takes you to the more private living spaces of the property. There is a snug with an electric fireplace and built-in shelving which leads onto another reception room (currently being used as a music room) with a useful storage cupboard. This is also used as a through room to the third double bedroom, which has a part panelled wall and electric fire. There is a WC with a large cupboard that currently houses a washer/dryer but has the potential to be turned into a shower. There is potential for the third bedroom and reception room along with the WC to be converted into a separate annexe for relatives/guests.


Outside: The garden wraps around the property on three sides with a lawned area to the side and a gravelled driveway to the front. The driveway has parking for three cars and is also home to a gated bin store, a storage shed and the oil tank which is hidden behind a contemporary wooden fence. A paved pathway leads from the driveway to an enclosed south facing garden at the side of the property. The garden is mostly laid to lawn, with a variety of planting and shrubbery including it's very own Fir tree to be decorated at Christmas. There is a small terrace area and paved slabs that wrap around the property that lead to the rear gravelled terrace. The rear of the property can also be accessed through the dining room French doors and has a raised decked terrace with a shed for storage and space for a BBQ, perfect for outdoor dining.


Location: Set amongst the unique and beautiful Somerset Moors, Lower Godney is much sought-after due to its friendly community and creative spirit. The property itself is well placed for countryside walks through and bike rides and located just down the road is the fabulously quirky Sheppey Inn, which is well loved by locals. Godney is central to four National Nature Reserves and with wildlife in abundance the sightings of buzzard, roe deer, lapwing, otter, heron, barn owl, and kingfishers are common.


Just six miles away, the picturesque city of Wells has a bustling High Street and provides a range of local amenities with four supermarkets (Waitrose being the closest), a cinema, leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors, some fabulous independent shops and even some art shops for those seeking something a little different. There are also famous historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace, as well as the popular twice weekly produce market and Cedars Hall offering a range of cultural events throughout the year. Also close by is the vibrant and thriving market town of Glastonbury. Now a designated conservation area, the Medieval town centres around the magnificent ruins of the Abbey and attracts thousands of visitors each year to soak up the history and enjoy the array of independent retailers including quality food shops and cafes alongside complimentary health clinics.


There are excellent state schools in the vicinity, including Stoberry Park School, St Cuthbert's CofE Junior School, St Joseph and St Teresa Catholic Primary School and The Blue School as well as independent schools including Wells Cathedral School on your doorstep. All Hallows Prep School, Downside and Millfield are just a short drive away.
