Description

This 3-bedroom detached house presents a valuable opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with substantial renovation potential. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, the home includes off-road parking, a garage, and a private south-facing garden that enhances the outdoor space. The layout features an entrance hall leading to convenient ground-floor amenities including a WC, kitchen with an adjoining utility room, living room, and conservatory that provides views of the garden and neighboring churchyard. The living areas are well-lit and spacious, making them ideal candidates for modern upgrades. On the upper level, three generously sized bedrooms are complemented by a family bathroom. While the home requires general updating, it offers significant scope for personalization and improvement. There is potential to convert the garage into additional living space (subject to necessary consents), as well as opportunities for extensions in the expansive garden area (STPP). Located in Ilton, this property benefits from its proximity to Ilminster, which features essential day-to-day amenities along with various independent shops and larger supermarkets. The village is also well-connected via local roads leading to major routes such as the A358, providing easy access to the A303 and M5. Community resources within Ilton include a pre-school, primary school, cricket pitch, village hall, and equestrian facilities. For those seeking both comfort and project potential in a desirable location with accessible transport links—such as mainline railway options in Taunton (9 miles), Yeovil, and Crewkerne—this property could be an excellent fit. The combination of existing structural features and external space makes it an appealing canvas for future enhancements or personal touches.
