DESCRIPTION
The property apparently dates from the
late 1920's era and is typical of the period,
having been constructed for a well known
local family with rendered elevations on a
brick plinth under a clay plain tiled roof.
All such properties were of individual
design and Raglands was clearly built as
a property of stature with well
proportioned rooms throughout, featuring
in particular generous living and dining
rooms
with
a
good
family
kitchen/breakfast room.
These are
supplemented by a good sized sun room
and study whilst five bedrooms are
arranged at first floor level, the master
bedroom in particular being of an
excellent size. The present owners have
been in occupation for some 15 years and
in that time have installed good quality
double glazing as well as having
undertaken replacement to both the main
bathroom and separate shower room.
This is an excellent family house that
stands within a generous plot, again
typical of the era. It is well set back and
screened from the road and enjoys a
good degree of privacy.
Generous
parking areas are also provided and some
excellent outbuildings would be of
particular attraction to those with strong
hobby interests.
SITUATION
The property is situated on the southern
side of the rural centre of Williton where a
good level of day to day facilities will be
found including supermarket, health
centre,
primary
schooling
and
convenience stores. The town lies on the
edge of the Quantock Hills which are
designated as an area of outstanding
natural beauty and where many fine
walks may be enjoyed. The surrounding
area is one of undulating attractive
countryside with the north Somerset coast
at the attractive small port of Watchet
being within 4 miles. The county town of
Taunton, where a wide range of shopping
and recreational facilities will be found,

is some 15 miles to the south. The M5
may be joined at Taunton (junction 25)
where a fast rail service to London
Paddington is also available.
LOCAL SCHOOLS
St Peter's First School and Danesfield
Church of England Middle School are both
within walking distance of the property,
whilst older children attend West
Somerset College in Minehead. All three
schools were rated as 'Good' in their most
recent Ofsted inspections.
There are several highly regarded
independent schools in Taunton, school
buses for which pass the end of the drive.

turn to a paviour hard standing and

The property stands within generous
gardens, the whole plot extending to
approximately 1 acre. The front gardens
are largely dedicated to lawn (a former

an orchard area with a variety of
productive fruit trees and a vegetable plot
with plenty of room and potential for the
keen gardener to extend and expand
this. The rear boundary backs onto open
fields and some generous views are
afforded particularly to the north and
east.
