3 bedroom detached house for sale

A rare opportunity to acquire this lovely three bedroom detached home in the ever sought after village of Dowlish Wake with parking, detached garage, secluded garden, views and offered with no onward chain.


A charming and enviably situated three bedroom detached home with parking, garage and private gardens. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, dining room, sitting room, conservatory and WC to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. With over 1,400 sq ft of accommodation, The Coach House offers spacious and versatile living at every turn. The generous entrance hall, connects all the ground floor living rooms and is a welcoming entry point for any guests. The well-proportioned sitting room is a relaxing setting to unwind and leads directly into the conservatory with views out to the garden. The dining room will appeal to those who enjoy formal entertaining whilst the kitchen is fitted with most mod-cons. All three bedrooms to the first floor can accommodate double beds and in turn, are all serviced by the family bathroom which has the luxury of a separate shower and bath. Although now in need of general updating throughout, The Coach House is an exciting blank canvas on which to stamp one’s own design aspirations. There is also the very real possibility of extending (subject to the necessary consents) which provide a multitude of options for potential buyers. The expansive, detached garage is another exciting attribute to this home and could serve a number of uses including workshop, gym or even the possibility of ancillary accommodation (stpp). We would strongly encourage families, those seeking idyllic village life and those looking for a manageable design project to view.

Dowlish Wake is tucked away from main roads in a hidden and beautiful part of South Somerset with some excellent walks and public footpaths, nearby, together with a farm shop at Perry's Cider, parish church and public house (The New Inn). The nearest town is Ilminster, centred on its fine Minster and Market Place with independent and traditional shops as well as supermarket, together with many clubs and amateur dramatics. Other main towns in the area include Chard, Yeovil and Taunton all of which have a good range of facilities. Communications to the area are excellent. The A303 is a dual carriageway most of the way to London and provides fast access to the east. Exeter is under an hour away to the west, and junction 25 of the M5 is about 10 miles north of Ilminster. There are mainline railway stations at Crewkerne (7 miles - Waterloo connection) and Taunton (14 miles - Paddington connection). South coast at Lyme Regis 16.2 miles.

The property is approached by an area of off-road parking to the right of the property leading to the detached garage. There is a small courtyard garden to the front giving access to the main entrance. The rear garden is an utter joy, backing onto local farmland with views over the rolling hills beyond. It is laid to lawn and patio and offers a wonderful setting for child’s play, sitting out in the warmer months and alfresco dining with family and friends.
