A delightful and welcoming four bedroom detached home, close to communication links with off-road parking, large detached garage and south-facing gardens. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, lounge, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility and WC to the ground floor, two bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor and another two bedrooms to the second floor. This home has been the pride and joy of its current owner for circa 40 years, testament to what a wonderful home it has been. With almost 1,800 sq ft of accommodation, Ferndale has that unique trait of being incredibly spacious whilst retaining a real sense of comfort and intimacy. The large kitchen is well fitted, light and has ample space for a breakfast table – ideal for socialising with family and friends. It leads directly into the utility room which in turn has direct access outside. The heart of the home are the two reception rooms which are currently set up to be a sitting room and dining room. The dining room will appeal to those who enjoy formal entertaining whilst the sitting room is a great space to enjoy all year round but particularly during the colder months, thanks to an open fire. If that were not enough, there is a further reception room which could be utilised as a play room, bedroom, further sitting room or studio. Ultimately, all the reception rooms are interchangeable which provides a huge amount of versatility and flexibility to a potential buyer. The two bedrooms to the first floor are both generous doubles and there is obvious scope to create an ensuite given the magnitude of the bathroom. There are a further two bedrooms to the second floor which can both accommodate double bedrooms. It should also be noted that the garage could be utilised as studio, gym, workshop or, given the necessary consents, the possibility of annex. This tremendous family home will suit families and those looking to be in a convenient location in the medieval market town of Ilminster.
Ilminster is a Medieval market town, the centre of which is dominated by the ancient Minster. The town developed further during the Georgian period with many of the properties being constructed in the local mellow Hamstone. The surrounding land is lightly wooded and is designated a Special Landscape area. Ilminster offers a full range of shopping and other amenities, together with schooling and churches of various denominations. Ilminster has convenient road access to both the M5, junction 25 lies 11 miles to the north-west and to the A303, now dual carriageway most of the way to the M3. There are mainline railway stations at Crewkerne 7 miles (London Waterloo) and the county town of Taunton 13 miles (London Paddington). Bath, Bristol and Exeter offer excellent cultural and shopping facilities within easy travelling distance. The World Heritage designated coastline lies 18 miles to the South.
The property is approached by its own driveway giving access to off-road parking for a number of vehicles as well as access to the detached garage. There is an attractive front garden laid to gravel, mature shrubs and a sweeping pathway leading to the front entrance. The south-facing and private rear garden is an utter joy and has been beautifully landscaped to create an enchanting setting for child’s play, alfresco dining and sitting out in the warmer months. It is laid to lawn and patio and further complemented by mature shrubs, trees and colourful flora. It has lovely views out to the conservation area of Herne Hill and has the advantage of a solid garden shed.
