St. Peters Close, Ilton, Ilminster

Of interest to cash buyers only, this is a rare chance for you to finish an incomplete new build property with good size garden, to your own specification.

The Property - This new build property was granted planning permission in 2018 (reference 18/03502/FUL) and has been a labour of love by the current owner occupiers. There are still works to be completed including (but not exclusively) installation and connection of air source heating, replacement patio doors, external finishing, connection to the mains sewerage system, further wiring works and landscaping. However, the current owners are in residence and are currently making use of electricity for heating and hot water provision, alongside a woodburning stove for additional heat. We understand that the building control department of Somerset Council have been involved during the necessary stages but would not be due to reinspect until further works are completed. This is a chance for someone with the necessary skills and cash funds to take on the baton and finish to their own specification.

Accommodation - The welcoming entrance hall offers a glimpse of the galleried landing above and features an understairs storage cupboard, as well as a rear lobby that leads to a practical downstairs cloakroom and a dedicated study overlooking the rear garden. To one side, a spacious dual-aspect sitting room boasts a feature fireplace with a woodburning stove and opens onto the garden through patio doors.

Opposite, the bright and sociable triple-aspect kitchen/dining room also provides garden access and is equipped with a range of fitted units, including a built-in electric oven and hob, plus space for both a dishwasher and washing machine.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms, three of which include built-in storage. The master bedroom benefits from an attractive en suite shower room, while a separate family shower room is also available—with potential to convert it into a full bathroom, if desired.

Outside - The property is approached through private gates onto a driveway with access to the front door. The frontage is fully enclosed by a wall creating a good sense of privacy.

There is a good size garden extending to the rear which offers a wealth of possibilities for a new owner. A non-compliant private drainage system is currently located at the rear pending connection to the mains sewer for which the vendor has relevant paperwork.

Situation - Ilton is a convenient village just a few minutes’ drive from Ilminster and benefits from facilities including a pre-school and primary school, cricket club, public house, and village hall.
