The Property
Having been in the same ownership for many years, this lovely family-size traditional end of terrace offers a little scope for updating but has great accommodation with a generous amount of storage. The current owner has modernised the kitchen / breakfast room and the property already benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, allowing a new owner to take over the baton and make gradual changes in the way they would like.
Set back from Orchard Vale by a large grassy verge, the property is accessed over a shared pathway to the front leading to its corner plot with particularly spacious front garden. The UPVC double glazed front door has glazed side panels letting plenty of natural light into the hallway where there's plenty of room to hang coats etc and the stairs rise up to the first floor. The dual aspect sitting room lies to one side and has a pleasant outlook to the front with a further UPVC door opening into the rear garden. The original tiled open fireplace is still in situ and although not currently in use, could be something that a new owner might wish to explore. Beyond the sitting room is a good size kitchen across the rear, with room for a small table. The kitchen has been modernised in more recent times with attractive cream units and oak effect laminate worktops incorporating one and a half bowl single drainer stainless steel sink unit. The units include an integrated fridge freezer, microwave, double electric oven and gas hob with cooker hood over. The kitchen also houses the under stairs storage cupboard for added convenience.
From the kitchen there is a useful lobby with door to the side access path and further large built-in cupboard with shelving. Across the lobby the former outhouse is now effectively an internal store room with window to the front. It currently houses the wall mounted gas boiler and has power and light, making it ideal for housing an extra freezer or simply a great extra storage space, particular for young families with pushchairs and wellies. It also offers great scope to incorporate further into the accommodation by making some alterations and connecting it to the front hall for use as a home office or study, or knocking through to the kitchen.
First Floor
On the first floor there's a small tiled bathroom with wash hand basin and panelled bath with shower over. Adjoining is a separate WC, both with windows to the rear for natural light. There are three good size bedrooms including two good double rooms at the front. One with built-in overstairs wardrobe and the other with a further storage recess and overstairs airing cupboard with slatted shelving and hot water cylinder. The single bedroom looks out to the rear of the property.
Outside
To the front of the property, the generous front lawn is enclosed by low box hedging, with a pathway leading to the front door. A side gate leads through to a further pathway giving access to the side lobby, and on into the rear garden which is triangular in shape and enjoys a sheltered southerly aspect. The rear garden is laid to patio closest to the house with outside tap. The borders are stocked with bulbs and a pathway leads to the bottom of the garden where there is a small timber garden shed.
Situation
The property is located in a level location close to the recreation ground with playpark, cricket pitch and football fields close by. It is also within an easy level walk of the town centre facilities.
On a practical note, the doctors’ surgeries are located on the same side of town, and there is good access for dog walking via local footpaths and the Chard – Ilminster cycle path. Of course, there is a wide range of facilities in the town centre. The local stores are mostly centred around the market square and 15th century Minster church and have everything you need from an excellent butchers and delicatessen, cheese and dairy shop, homewares and antiques stores, clothes boutiques and gift shops. The town is also well served by a town-centre Tesco store with ample free parking just a short walk from the town centre. Alongside the supermarket is a bowls club and tennis club. There is also a town library. Ilminster Arts centre is a vibrant arts venue with cafe. There are plenty of other places to eat and drink too, including pubs, cafes and takeaways.
The town has several hairdressers / beauty salons and a dental surgery. Ilminster is arguably one of South-Somerset's prettiest market towns and benefits from superb road links via the A303 and A358.
