For sale by auction - Located off a private driveway in the grounds of an historic farmhouse, this spacious semi-detached two-bedroom period cottage enjoys an idyllic rural setting and offers scope for further improvement.
The Property
Originally forming part of a detached farmhouse that was divided into two separate homes in the 1950s, this spacious semi-detached period cottage occupies a picturesque setting within the grounds of a historic farmhouse in an outstanding rural location. Offering excellent potential for further enhancement, the property boasts generous proportions and a substantial garden with attractive views across surrounding farmland towards the Blackdown Hills. The garden also provides ample space for the creation of dedicated off-road parking.
Inside, an entrance lobby opens into a central hallway, leading to a generously sized dual-aspect kitchen/dining room. Beyond this is a well-proportioned sitting room featuring a multi-fuel stove and stairs rising to the first floor. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms enjoying views to both the front and rear, together with a spacious family bathroom.
Situation
Isle Abbotts is a highly regarded rural village with a thriving community, village hall and beautiful parish church. There is a well-respected pre-school at Ilton, and it lies within the catchment area of the popular Hambridge Primary School. Despite its rural position away from busy traffic, the village is located within a short drive of good road links via the A358 and A303. The property is located with the grounds of a period farmhouse on the very outskirts of the village.
The pretty market town of Ilminster is 4.7 miles to the south and Langport is 7.8 miles to the north east. The picturesque county town of Taunton is 12 miles to the north west and offers an excellent range of shops, restaurants and cafes and highly regarded state and independent schools. From Taunton there is a fast rail service to London Paddington. Both Bristol and Exeter international airports are within an hour’s drive.
