Kelburn is a very special property indeed, a much loved family home for many years and now on the market for the first time since being built circa 1980. Traditionally built with Alpine rendered elevations set beneath a slate roof, it offers particularly well proportioned accommodation with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The principal rooms enjoy superb views across the surrounding countryside and excellent ceiling heights and large windows create a light and airy feel. A very convenient layout provides a spacious hallway, with cloakroom off, leading to a charming sitting room with open fireplace and inset multifuel stove and thence to a lovely conservatory with a South and West facing aspect and long range views. The separate dining room has access to the garden terrace and also leads back into a well fitted kitchen/breakfast room with separate utility. The bedrooms are all well proportioned with a superb master suite and modern bathroom, two further double bedrooms, a good size single and second bathroom. Oil fired central heating and double glazing are installed.
From the public highway a tarmac layby and double gates give access to the parking area and a double garage with twin up and over doors and personal door to the rear. The property is set in an elevated positon on its plot taking full advantage of the far reaching views across the valley towards the Blackdown Hills. Over the years a beautiful garden has been developed with a sheltered terrace running the length of the bungalow and a wealth of established flowering shrubs and trees. There are gently sloping lawns, fruit trees and established hedges all creating the perfect place to relax in and watch the sun go down. The whole plot extends to an estimated 0.63 Acre.

Kelburn is quietly tucked away in the small hamlet of Howley on the Southern edge of the Blackdown Hills an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the border of Somerset and Devon and enjoys a peaceful South and West facing aspect across traditional countryside. The small market towns of Chard, Ilminster and Honiton are all within easy reach, catering for everyday needs, whilst the County Town of Taunton is some 14 miles to the North with excellent retail, commercial and educational opportunities, including a wide choice of schools in both the state and independent sectors. An intercity rail link provides a good service to London Paddington and there is easy access to both the M5 motorway and A303 and excellent regional airports at Exeter and Bristol. The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is just 15 miles to the South at Lyme Regis with its renowned Cobb Harbour, interesting architecture and a host of leisure activities.
