Bullens Close, Ilton, Ilminster

Set in just over a quarter of an acre, with the most beautiful south-westerly outlook to the rear this spacious bungalow is perfect for those needing generous proportions all on one level.

The Property - Nestled in a charming, quiet cul-de-sac alongside just three similar homes, this spacious bungalow boasts unexpectedly generous proportions throughout. Designed for easy single-level living, its well-thought-out layout offers excellent flexibility to suit your needs. The beautifully maintained gardens, along with ample outdoor storage—including a sizable double garage—make it an ideal choice for hobbyists and gardening enthusiasts alike.

Accommodation - A practical enclosed storm porch leads into an exceptionally spacious entrance hall, offering plenty of room for furniture and featuring a large built-in coat cupboard on one side. To the front, a well-proportioned sitting room provides a welcoming space, enhanced by a stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove that serves as a cozy focal point.

At the rear, a bright and airy dining room seamlessly connects to the outdoor deck through sliding doors and also opens into a generous conservatory with garden views. The adjoining kitchen/breakfast room is well-sized and fitted with modern cabinetry, including a built-in electric oven and hob, a dedicated recycling/waste bin drawer, and an integrated dishwasher. There is also space for a washing machine and fridge freezer.

From the entrance hall, one of the double bedrooms could easily serve as an additional reception room or study if desired. The inner hall features a large airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and a PV panel-powered water "boost" system. Two of the double bedrooms are served by a stylishly appointed bathroom, which includes a contemporary white suite with a wall-hung washbasin, concealed cistern WC, bathtub, and a separate shower cubicle, all complemented by sleek modern tiling on both the walls and floor. A large fitted mirror enhances the sense of space.

The master bedroom is generously sized and enjoys a pleasant rear outlook. A dedicated dressing area in one corner offers the potential for custom-fitted bedroom furniture if desired. The adjoining en suite is equipped with a contemporary suite, including a double shower cubicle finished with elegant neutral tiling.

Outside - At the front of the property, a spacious driveway offers ample parking for multiple vehicles and provides access to the integral double garage, which features two up-and-over doors (one power-assisted), as well as power and lighting. The driveway has been slightly extended by way of a gravelled area to both sides, and this allows extra width should you require storage for a caravan, motorhome or trailer. The lawned front gardens set the property back from the road, while a useful wood store sits to one side, with a side gate leading to the rear garden.

At the back, a patio and decking area create perfect spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining, overlooking the beautifully landscaped rear gardens. These include ornamental cherry and flowering prunus, along with other low-maintenance shrubs. Near the side gate, a practical working area features a greenhouse, a storage area, and the oil tank that was replaced in recent years. There are outdoor taps to the front and rear.

The gardens benefit from a sunny south-westerly aspect and enjoy picturesque views of the parish churchyard, the grounds of the former rectory, and the adjacent field.
