Holway Avenue, Taunton, Somerset, TA1 3AR

SELLERS INSIGHT We have lived at 18, Holway Avenue, which is known affectionately on the Local Authority website as “Old Holy Trinity Vicarage”.

It has been a wonderful family home for us, peaceful and calm, with plenty of character, and a secluded large garden which is an absolute sun trap.

We have enjoyed Sunday strolls into town via Vivary Park, where often we would stop for a picnic or to feed the ducks.

10 minutes and you are literally on the High Street, with a delightful walk through Taunton’s treasured asset. We used to joke that everything you ever needed was basically on one road.

Two great schools in King’s College and Bishop’s Foxes, the last independent state school in the town.

A doctor’s/Pharmacy around the corner on Upper Holway, Richard Huish College, two primary schools, a Vets and Butchers on South Road, and Sainsburys Billetfields at the end which acts as an awesome corner shop.

Originally it was owned by the Dioceses and acted as Holy Trinity Vicarage. Then being sold to members of the congregation to which we then bought the house from.

Many a time we have sat in the garden and looked out over the backdrop of mature trees, and those in the foreground, and consider it so quiet and peaceful you would have no idea you are literally in the centre of town at TA1.

We have had such an amazing time in this house and it will be sorely missed.

STEP INSIDE Step inside and this adaptable home immediately impresses with its sense of light, space and flexibility, with well-proportioned rooms enjoying an abundance of natural light throughout.

The heart of the home is the beautifully fitted kitchen/dining room, appointed with a range of modern units and a central island.

There is ample space for dining beside the window, where views extend across the gardens.

Two separate sitting rooms provide excellent versatility for family life, both opening directly onto the south-facing gardens.

A fitted study/home office adds further practicality, while the ground floor is completed by a useful shower room, utility room and direct access to both the garage and gardens.

On the first floor, the two principal bedrooms enjoy a lovely outlook over the rear south-facing gardens.

Three of the four bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, providing excellent practical storage.

The first floor is served by a family bathroom, complete with bath and separate shower enclosure, together with a separate WC. A pull-down ladder provides access to a useful boarded loft space.

STEP OUTSIDE A large private driveway provides excellent parking and turning space to the front of the house, together with access to the garage, which also benefits from a personal door to the rear.

One of the true delights of this property is the rear garden — generous, private and beautifully orientated to make the most of its sunny southerly aspect.

Level and mainly laid to lawn, with a sculpted patio ideal for relaxing, entertaining or simply enjoying the sunshine, it offers a wonderful sense of outdoor living.

Established trees to the far end create an attractive backdrop and a feeling of seclusion, making this a rare and appealing find so close to the town.
