Limington, Yeovil, BA22

A delighful attached Grade II Listed village house with deceptively large accommodation, generous gardens, double garage and car port. Home office/summer house/workshop.






A fine Grade II Listed attached period property situated in this popular village located north of Yeovil. The Chantry has an enormous amount to offer a purchaser with deceptively large internal accommodation alongside large gardens, a gated driveway, double garage, attached car port and a most useful timber outbuilding currently laid out as a summerhouse area, home study and a large workshop.

Further enhanced by the owners to include the installation of extra secondary glazing, together with numerous other improvements, this very comfortable village home must be viewed to be appreciated.

The ground floor accommodation provides a good level of flexibility with the three reception rooms able to be used for different purposes. There is a generous kitchen/dining room together with a large utility room having a downstairs WC off. All three reception rooms feature fireplaces, one currently used as an open fire, a cast iron woodburner sits in the living room, whilst that in the snug/stitting room is currently boarded but could be re-instated if desired (not tested).

The first floor comprises three large double bedrooms together with a generous single and also a nursery/dressing area that is to be found between bedrooms two and three. The main bedroom has a spacious en-suite shower room whilst the shared bathroom is also of a particularly generous size, both rooms feature shower enclosures with the shared bathroom also having a bath.

The property is warmed by oil fired central heating with the vast majority of sash windows being secondary glazed, some of the casements are already double glazed.

The attractive village of Limington lies to the north of Yeovil and Sherborne, a short drive to the well served village of Ilchester with the A303 access beyond. The village has an historic church together with a popular public house, The Lamb and Lark. For day to day amenities and facilities, both Yeovil and Sherborne are within easy reach with both towns also having mainline railway stations providing excellent connections. Schooling is well catered for with a primary school in Ilchester, secondary schooling both in Yeovil and Sherborne as well as a fine selection of private schools, namely Hazlegrove Preparatory School, Leweston and Sherborne Boys/Girls. Both Castle Cary and Bruton lie within commutable distance.

Undoubtedly a major feature of this superb home is the outside space. The property is approached via a side gated driveway that leads to a gravelled area providing plenty of parking and within which is the double garage and an attached oak framed car port. Beside the driveway is a particularly large and level area of lawn with numerous beds together with hedge and fence boundaries. Adjacent is the substantial timber outbuilding which is currently split into three distinct areas and has wired broadband for those looking to work from home. To the side of this building is a timber log store. From the driveway and flanked by further areas of lawn, one with a large greenhouse, a pathway and a short flight of stone steps lead to the house where there is an enclosed courtyard together with a concealed oil tank. The small cottage that is attached to The Chantry at the rear has a rarely used pedestrian access across this courtyard to the lane located at the front.
