1 bedroom bungalow for sale

VACANT - NO FURTHER CHAIN. ‘Mill Lodge’ is a unique, detached, one bedroom bungalow situated in the Conservation Area of the historic and pretty Somerset village of Queen Camel. It is a short walk from the village amenities and is in the shadow of the Grade 1 listed parish church with beautiful countryside with public footpaths all around. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area. The property has recently had flood damage and has now benefitted from redecoration, a new kitchen and a new [Ecowarm] heating system (radiators and water) powered by six solar panels on the roof. It also benefits from uPVC double glazing and is very tidy throughout. It comes with a garden and patio seating area at the front as well as parking for two cars and a detached garage. However, we believe that the property has some development potential or scope to extend, subject to the necessary planning permission. We have been unable to verify if the property is of standard construction or not. Buyers will need to make their own investigations in to this. The friendly village of Queen Camel has a village pub, village shop, Post Office, Medical Centre and Parish Church. It has the popular, 2016 built, Countess Gytha pre-school and primary school, and also within the parish is Hazelgrove Preparatory School. On the vacated old school site is now a Community Centre that includes a café, beautician, hairdresser and well-being therapists. There is easy access to the A303 London/South West Road. Sherborne, Yeovil, Castle Cary and Bruton lie within comfortable motoring distance. Bruton is particularly popular with ex-London buyers and offers Hauser & Wirth Somerset - a pioneering world-class gallery and multi-purpose arts centre as well as fantastic schooling options. It also boasts The Newt - a country estate with splendid gardens, woodland, hotel, restaurants and farmland. VACANT - NO FURTHER CHAIN.

The picturesque town centre of Sherborne is a short drive away with its coveted high street, buzzing, popular out-and-about culture, boutique stores, organic bakeries, coffee shops, restaurants, gastro-pubs and farmers market. Sherborne also boasts the breath-taking Sherborne Abbey building, Alms Houses and world-famous Sherborne private schools. The mainline railway station to London Waterloo is in the centre of Sherborne, making London directly in just over two hours. This property is perfect for those aspiring first-time buyers or couples looking for the ideal village home, for cash buyers from London and the South East (who we have an abundance of on our buyers register via my four West London offices of Rolfe East) looking for an investment property, holiday let or pied-a-terre in this exceptional area.
