Higher Chillington, Ilminster, Somerset, TA19

Set in possibly one of the most stunning locations in the County, GTH are honoured to bring this 4 bedroom detached bungalow to the market, set within a generous plot in an elevated position offering outstanding views across rolling countryside.


We are delighted to bring to the market this fabulous detached bungalow situated in private grounds of just over an acre. In brief the property comprises kitchen/diner, separate utility room, family room/snug, living room, 4 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, cloakroom and a separate office. The main entrance to the property leads into a hallway and up into the impressive living room with bi-fold doors leading to the terrace and looking out over the breathtaking views, seamlessly blending inside with out. For the winter months there is the added luxury of a wood-burner in the living room. The kitchen/diner is fully equipped with wall and floor mounted storage units, aga, separate oven and induction hob, larder, integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer and complete with a breakfast bar at the end leading round to the family room – the two rooms create a wonderful light, bright space for cooking, eating and socialising all in one. The utility room is very spacious and has a sink, wine fridge, space for washing machine and drier and a cupboard housing the boiler.

Leading off from the living room are the 4 double bedrooms, 2 with ensuite shower rooms, and a separate family bathroom all beautifully fitted with high spec facilities. The family bathroom has a large shower unit, separate Jacuzzi bath with TV built into the wall, and all bathrooms have heated towel rails, WCs and basins with vanity units.
The current owners have spent a huge amount of time and attention updating this property, evident at every turn. The situation, setting, views and privacy will be the envy of any guest and we would strongly recommend families, those requiring single-storey living and anyone simply wanting to enjoy idyllic countryside living to view. A total rare opportunity.
