Dating from the 1930's Belle Vue is traditionally constructed with part brick and part rendered elevations, set beneath a tiled roof. Recently extended and refurbished, the property offers particularly spacious and flexible accommodation arranged as follows, on the ground floor sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom, office and bedroom with en-suite bathroom. To the first floor are three further bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room, and a family bathroom. The house benefits from new Upvc double glazing all round and gas fired central heating, but great care has been taken to retain the period character including original internal doors, exposed floorboards and a stained glass borrowed light panel. The ground floor has been specifically designed with the possibility of making a self contained annexe using the office/former garage. There is an excellent carport, ample driveway parking and a secluded rear garden.
The house is pleasantly located towards the town outskirts within walking distance of open countryside and about ½ mile from the town centre. Chard provides a wide range of amenities including major supermarkets, specialist retailers, banks, independent and state schools. The County Town of Taunton is some 14 miles to the North, with an intercity rail service (London Paddington) and easy access to the M5 motorway, whilst the World Heritage Jurassic Coast is a similar distance to the South at Lyme Regis.
