Believed to date back to the mid-1700s, this exceptional period property has been meticulously renovated throughout to an extremely high standard, with great care taken to respect and enhance its historic character. Finished with Farrow & Ball paints that beautifully complement the original features, the home offers an elegant and harmonious blend of heritage and modern comfort.
The sitting room is a particularly impressive space, centred around a magnificent inglenook fireplace that immediately sets the tone for the property's charm. The hallway features characterful flagstone flooring, while the dining room displays beautiful wood panelling that adds warmth and depth. Upstairs, bedroom three conceals a delightful secret stairway that leads to a wonderful loft conversion, complete with exposed timbers that celebrate the building's age and craftsmanship. Throughout the home, deep-set windows reveal the thickness of the stone walls and are fitted with traditional shutters.
The large, traditional-style kitchen is perfectly suited to both everyday use and hosting, accompanied by a useful utility area. A cleverly positioned storage cupboard also provides access down to a cellar, offering further functional storage space. To the rear, the courtyard garden has been thoughtfully arranged for entertaining, with a bespoke purpose-built cooking area that makes it ideal for gatherings and outdoor dining.
Situated in the historic village of Ilchester, once a significant Roman garrison town on the Fosse Way, the property enjoys a rich setting with a wonderful range of local amenities including well-regarded public houses, eateries, a museum, and a town hall. Transport connections are excellent, with easy access to the A303, making commuting straightforward.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated, character-filled home in a sought-after and well-connected village location.
