The Property
Whether you’re a busy family looking for a home where everyone can enjoy their own space, or simply want plenty of room for entertaining friends and family, this surprisingly spacious and beautifully presented property offers an excellent balance of space, style and practicality. Having undergone significant improvements, the house is now easy to manage and offers a good degree of accessibility, while the addition of smart new off-road parking is an added benefit. If you’re looking for a stylish, low-maintenance home that is ready to move straight into, this could be just the property you’ve been waiting for.
Accommodation
From the moment you step inside, it is clear just how much care and attention has gone into creating this lovely home. The property has been comprehensively updated, with a top-to-toe redecoration, new flooring and stylish internal doors complementing the more substantial improvements. These include the creation of an en suite from the former WC, a refitted family bathroom and the transformation of the main living areas to create a fabulous sociable kitchen and living space.
The dual-aspect sitting room enjoys plenty of natural light and features an open fire, providing a cosy focal point during the colder months. Across the hall, a versatile second reception room with bay window could be used as a snug, formal dining room or family room, depending on your needs.
To the rear, the superb open-plan L-shaped kitchen/breakfast room provides an excellent connection between the two reception rooms, creating a natural flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a stylish range of two-tone units with oak detailing, incorporating an integrated induction hob, double under-counter ovens, fridge and dishwasher. Wood-effect tiled flooring flows seamlessly between the kitchen and adjoining areas, while the breakfast bar enjoys lovely views across the town towards Herne Hill.
A side lobby provides useful access to the south-facing garden area and leads through to a separate utility room, with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a second sink and additional storage. This practical space also incorporates a downstairs cloakroom.
Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, comprising three good-sized doubles and a fourth, generously sized single bedroom which would also make an ideal home office. The rear double bedroom benefits from a smart en suite shower room, whilst both the second and third doubles have built-in wardrobes over the stairs. The the family bathroom has been finished in timeless sage green metro tiling and includes a attractive suite comprising bath with shower handset over, vanity wash hand basin and low-level WC.
Outside
To the front, a smart new driveway and retaining walls have been added with a dropped kerb to create a pull-in for off road parking. A ramp provides convenient access to the front door without the need for steps. A side gate leads through to a sunny gravelled and paved area which is clearly a sun trap in fine weather and enjoys views across the town towards the countryside beyond. There is also space here for a shed if you wish. The rear garden is laid to gravel for ease of maintenance, with a raised border to one side.
Situation
Tucked away on the northern edge of the town, the property lies away from busy traffic in a mature residential area. A walk along the nearby public footpaths takes you down into the town centre. As well as public footpaths in the local area, the Dillington Estate offers several kilometres of permissive footpaths, making this an ideal location for dog walkers.
Blackdown View lies approximately quarter of a mile from the heart of the community, where there’s a wide variety of independent stores. These are mostly centred around the market square and 15th century Minster church and have everything you need from an award-winning butchers, delicatessen, cheese and dairy shop, homewares, antiques stores, boutiques and gift shops. Ilminster is also well served by a town-centre Tesco store with ample free parking. Alongside is a bowls club and tennis club and close-by a town library. Ilminster Arts Centre is a vibrant arts venue with licensed café and there are plenty of other places to eat and drink too, including pubs, cafes, and take-aways.
