Ashwell, Ilminster, Somerset, TA19

An inviting and beautifully positioned 3 bedroom detached barn conversion with grounds nearing 1 acre, stunning gardens, secluded position, parking, garage and situated just a short drive to the popular medieval town of Ilminster.


A fine example of a modern, three bedroom detached barn conversion, situated in an exclusive hamlet on the outskirts of Ilminster with grounds approaching an acre, parking and garage. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, WC, sitting room, dining room and kitchen to the ground floor and three bedrooms (one ensuite) and a family bathroom to the first floor. Bull Barn comes to the market for the first time in nearly 20 years, testament to what a wonderful and loved home it has been. What is immediately obvious is how light and spacious the barn is, particularly in the dual aspect sitting room which also benefits from an attractive brick-built fireplace and wood-burner. The kitchen is well-fitted and has a distinctive ‘cottage-feel’ to it, adding to the sense of character and charm and leads directly through to the dining room. All the bedrooms are of generous proportions and of particular note is the impressive master bedroom with built-in wardrobes and the luxury of its own ensuite. Because Bull Barn is nestled within its own grounds, it offers any buyer a private and romantic setting in which to enjoy alone or with friends and family. A rare and exciting opportunity for those looking to be in close proximity to a bustling medieval town and communication links, combined with rural living.

Bull Barn is situated about 1 mile north of Ilminster in a small rural hamlet location of eight cottages and barn conversions surrounding the former mill. Ilminster is a former market town situated about 12 miles south east of the County Town of Taunton and surrounded by undulating open countryside. A major proportion of the town centre falls within the "Conservation Area" with many character buildings. The town centre offers a range of shopping facilities and amenities together with schooling at primary and intermediate levels, and churches of various denominations. Chard 5 miles, Taunton 12, Yeovil 14, South Coast 18 miles.

Bull Barn is approached via a private driveway giving access to a garage and off-road parking. Set within its own generous garden it also benefits from a large paddock, ideal for those looking for a taste of ‘the good life’. The garden is laid to level lawn, patio and further complemented by an abundance of colourful flora and mature shrubs. It is almost entirely private and will appeal to families, keen horticulturalists and those who enjoy whiling away the warmer months.
