Blake Place, Bridgwater
A most impressive substantial family home constructed principally of stone under a pitched, tiled, felted and insulated roof. It is one of an individual pair of properties believed to have been built in the 1700’s and situated in a quiet location overlooking St. Johns Church to the front and as such within only minutes walking distance of the town centre and all facilities.
The property has been sympathetically modernised retaining many character features including high ceilings, feature fireplaces etc. Gas fired central heating is installed with a new boiler fitted in April 2025. Briefly the spacious family accommodation comprises; Entrance Hall with feature staircase, Lounge with feature fireplace, Sitting Room, Dining Room, feature Kitchen/Breakfast Room, Utility Room, ground floor Shower Room/WC, whilst to first floor are 4 good size Bedrooms, Bathroom and separate WC. There is also a most useful Cellar. There are enclosed gardens to both the front and rear of the property together with a Garage & Parking to the rear of the property.
We feel that the house will provide an ideal family home and an early internal inspection is recommended by the SOLE AGENTS to fully appreciate the calibre and size provided.
