Description

For Sale by Public Auction and Livestream - Wednesday 20th August 2025 A double-fronted four bedroom period house in the heart of the pretty town centre with 200ft rear garden, offering great potential for improvement.

The Property - Just a short walk from the pretty town centre facilities, this deceptively roomy double-fronted house offers plenty of potential as a good size family home and there's even more scope for you to put your own stamp on the outside by way of a 200ft garden backing onto the allotments at the rear.

On the ground floor is a spacious dual aspect kitchen / dining room, inner hall providing access to the rear garden alongside a spacious understairs cupboard, and a generous dual-aspect living room. Both the living room and dining area have window seats to the front. On the first floor there are four good size bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside - The garden is elevated behind the house, but consists of a lower patio / hardstanding area, with steps up to a large lawn that extends right to the northern boundary with the allotments behind. The views from the upper level of garden are fabulous, both over the town and Herne Hill to the south, and west towards the Blackdown Hills.

Situation - Ilminster is one of South-Somerset’s prettiest market towns and everything needed for day to day living is on the doorstep. There is a wide variety of independent stores centred on the market square and 15th century Minster Church. The town is well served by a modern health centre, a dental surgery, two schools, a Tesco store and town centre Co-op / Peacocks store, hairdressers, cafes, pubs and takeaways. The nearest mainline station is 10 minutes away in Crewkerne (London Waterloo-Exeter). Taunton Station serves Bath, Bristol and London Paddington. Within a 30-minute drive lies the Jurassic Coast World Heritage site and the famous seaside town of Lyme Regis. Herne View Primary school is based over two sites in the town and caters for children from 4-11 although there are also good nurseries and pre-schools within easy reach. The town centre also provides easy access to the Dillington estate permitted pathways and Sustrans cycle route 33, meaning you can be in the open countryside within a few minutes walk.
