Wilkie May & Tuckwood are delighted to be able to offer The Ilminster Stage to the market, formerly an old Coaching Inn dating back to 1700 and now converted into a spacious four double bedroom family home offering a mixture of contemporary interior alongside character and charm in the heart of the increasingly popular and idyllic village of Culmstock and overlooking the All-Saints Church. Offered to the market with NO ONWARD CHAIN.
The substantial accommodation, which has seen various improvements is arranged over two floors, and briefly comprises steps leading up to the front door which leads into an inner porch which in turn leads into the entrance hallway which gives access to all main principal rooms. The impressive sitting room offers an abundance of character and enjoys views over the Church. A central fireplace with exposed brick work creates a real focal point to the room, other features include painted panelling, wrought iron beams, spotlights and oak flooring. A door opens into the 29ft kitchen/diner which is clearly the social hub to the home and offers limestone tiled flooring throughout along with a comprehensive range of carefully chosen solid oak shaker style matching wall and base units with contrasting granite worktops with inset ceramic sink, tiled splashbacks, integrated dishwasher and space for a fridge/freezer. This room also boasts an inset Rangemaster which sits within a brick fireplace whilst a central island provides additional seating, storage and offers further worktop space perfect for entertaining.
From the kitchen/diner stairs rise to the first floor where there are four double bedrooms each with fitted cupboards with the master benefiting from an en-suite. Furthermore there is shower room and family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms.
Externally the property enjoys a lit paved courtyard leading to a two storey outbuilding which used to form part of the skittle alley which could be used for a multitude of purposes and there is an adjoining bike shed and wood store. Steps lead to two fully enclosed adjoining walled gardens which are predominately laid to lawn, enjoying a high degree of privacy and offering a secure place for children and pets.
The Ilminster Stage occupies an outstanding position within the village with close countryside walks to hand, this home has been thoughtfully reconfigured by the current homeowners and now providing a tasteful, crisp and clean finish warmed by an air source heat pump with underfloor heating to the ground floor and falling comfortably within Uffculme School catchment. This home must be viewed to fully appreciate all that it has to offer.
