A rare rural retreat on the edge of Kilmersdon.

Tucked away at the end of a private driveway, Gallis Ash is a substantial four-bedroom detached home set in approximately 1.3 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland, with sweeping countryside views, a large sweeping driveway, double garage, and no onward chain.


About the Property.

This generous property offers peace, privacy and the charm of country living. The house is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and its own private woodland, creating a truly idyllic setting. Inside, three reception rooms, four well-proportioned bedrooms (including a principal suite with en-suite and dressing room), and a stunning triple-aspect living room make this a versatile and welcoming family home.

About the Inside.

The home is approached via steps leading down to a covered porch and entrance hallway with cloakroom.

At the heart of the home, a striking dining hall with vaulted ceilings opens to a galleried landing above. French doors in the light-filled living room open onto a wraparound deck, offering panoramic views across the valley.

A cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove set into an inglenook fireplace provides the perfect winter retreat. The kitchen is spacious enough for a breakfast table and connects to a practical utility area, storeroom, and access to the garden and garage.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to a dual-aspect bedroom at one end, and the principal bedroom at the other, complete with countryside views, a dressing room and en-suite. Two further double bedrooms and a modern family shower room complete the upper floor.
