Features and description

  • Freehold
A sympathetically restored detached Grade II Listed former farmhouse which overlooks the village green. The house has been extensively renovated by the current owners and now offers charming, spacious and versatile living accommodation which includes a host of lovely character features which include a wealth of exposed timbers, flagstone flooring, and a superb inglenook fireplace.

The fine cross-passage hallway leads to an inner hall which gives access to the principal ground floor rooms. At the western end of the house, a large drawing room has been modified to provide a living room with an adjoining kitchen and a south-facing garden room and designed to be suitable for elderly parents to enjoy semi-independent living (there is an adjacent separate WC). In addition to this room is a sitting room and a fabulous dining room with the inglenook fireplace. This leads to an attractively fitted kitchen with a range cooker. Beyond this is a boot room, a utility room, and a wet room with under-floor heating. There are two separate staircases accessing the first floor where there are 4 bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom with a free-standing clawfoot bath. The light and airy master bedroom enjoys a triple-aspect and a host of exposed beams.

Outside are front and rear gardens, south facing to the rear where there are raised beds and a verandah. There is plenty of parking in front of the barn (which is attached to the neighbour’s barn) which is subdivided into two good-sized workshops and a garage. The loft space above this is accessed by a staircase and provides additional useful space. On the eastern side of the house and behind the barn is a paddock providing valuable amenity space ideal for children and pets, and an aluminium greenhouse.

The house has mains water and electricity. There is oil fired central heating and a recently installed private drainage treatment unit.

Location
Ilton village is situated just off the A303 and is convenient for Taunton (12 miles), Ilminster (3 miles) and Yeovil (17 miles).
