Outside - The plot extends to approximately 0.18 acres—an exceptional size for a modern town property. The house occupies an elevated position, providing generous off-road parking at the front. Steps rise to the main entrance, while the former side driveway now serves as a convenient storage area for bins, with direct access inside via the boot room door.
To the rear, the south-facing garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to suit every need—whether for relaxation, entertaining, or family life. It features distinct areas including a raised bed and greenhouse for growing your own produce, as well as dedicated spaces for play and outdoor gatherings. A sleeper-edged patio is spacious enough for outside dining and is framed by mature planting leading to sweeping lawns. Steps ascend to a gravelled seating area ideal for a firepit.
Additional highlights include a timber shed, a variety of established trees (among them productive pear, plum and fig trees), and designated areas for a trampoline and swing set—sure to delight younger family members (equipment not included).
Situation - The house is not far from the attractive town centre, where local shops cluster around the historic market square and the 15th-century Minster church. As part of a designated conservation area, the town’s distinctive charm and character are carefully preserved.
A wide range of facilities can be found within easy walking distance, including an excellent butcher, delicatessen, cheese and dairy shop, homeware and antique stores, and a variety of gift shops. The town is also served by a central Tesco with generous free parking just a short stroll away, as well as a Co-op/Peacocks store nearby. Adjacent to Tesco are the local bowls and tennis clubs, while the town also offers a public library.
Cultural amenities include the Ilminster Arts Centre—complete with a café and vibrant programme of events—and a well-supported local theatre. Dining options are plentiful, with cafés, pub / restaurants, and takeaways throughout the town including the newly reopened pub, The George which is attracting a great following for food and drink.
For families, the recreation ground and sports clubs are a short walk away. Ilminster also has a recently combined primary school for children aged 4–11, alongside several nurseries and pre-school options. There is also a superb range of private schools in the area for all age groups. Everyday services are also well catered for, with a number of hairdressers, beauty salons, a dental surgery, and a modern health centre on the southern edge of town housing two GP practices.
Regarded as one of South Somerset’s prettiest market towns, Ilminster combines historic character with excellent transport links, benefitting from direct access to both the A303 and A358 which in turn lead to the M5 at Taunton and the beautiful Jurassic coast to the south.
