8 bed detached house for sale

Ilchester Road, Yeovil, Somerset BA21

A substantial and characterful detached period home offering exceptionally spacious and versatile accommodation, including a ground floor suite and useful basement space with external access.

Pickett Witch House is a fascinating detached property offering an exceptional amount of internal space which provides for different layouts as desired.

This interesting period home has had various uses over the years including a guest house and, reportedly, a school boarding house but, in recent times, has been a traditional residential property.
Such is the overall size, part of the property has been used as a separate letting entity whereby two reception rooms, a kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom were let on a commercial basis.
The property further benefits from a ground floor bedroom suite which would suit a dependent relative or prove ideal for a disabled person. Multi-generational living must also be a consideration.

The room sizes throughout are exceptional and there is a very useable basement that has external access to a small garden area.
