Upton Lane, Seavington, Ilminster, Somerset, TA19

Offered with no onward chain is this wonderfully situated and hugely exciting 3 bedroom detached bungalow ready to be made into someone’s dream home with large, wrap around garden, parking, views and situated in an idyllic setting in the ever sought after village of Seavington.


A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire this three bedroom detached bungalow in a generous plot, backing onto open farmland and offered with no onward chain. In brief the property comprises an entrance porch, kitchen/breakfast room, living room, three bedrooms, and a family shower room. Although now in need of general updating, Dove Cottage is the perfect blank canvas on which to create your dream home. The bungalow is noticeably light and airy and subject to any necessary consents could easily be extended to create substantial singe-storey dwelling. The master bedroom and living room have the distinct luxury of taking in views over the rear garden and farmland beyond, giving a real sense of peace and tranquillity. The kitchen is well-fitted and has ample room for a dining table whilst the remaining two bedrooms are both generous in proportion and in turn are serviced by the family shower room. The real joy of this home is not what it is, but what it could be. There is so much scope, potential and space, that any discerning buyer will quickly realise it is an opportunity not to be missed. We strongly recommend those with vision and those looking to create their own special home to view.
