Stocklinch, Ilminster

A historic Grade II listed period house set in generous grounds of 1.349 acres within a rural yet accessible village. Currently arranged as three self-contained properties it has scope to recreate a substantial and beautiful family home.

The Property - Situated on the edge of a sought-after village, parts of this Grade II listed period property are believed to date back to the 17th century, with additions made in the 18th and 19th centuries. Currently laid out as three separate dwellings, it offers great scope for those looking to recreate a substantial family home, or maintain sections of the property for multi-generational living or for letting purposes. On the south side, one dwelling is currently laid out as a three bedroom home with two reception rooms and spacious kitchen / breakfast room. The middle section has an impressive open-plan kitchen / living space with original inglenook fireplace and flagstone flooring, with spiral staircase up to a double bedroom and bathroom. The northern section of the house offers three more bedrooms with ground floor bathroom, kitchen and sitting room. The grounds include an impressive entrance with carriage driveway, mature part-walled gardens the majority of which enjoy a southerly aspect, an established apple orchard and a further paddock area which could be incorporated into the garden. There is also handy brick built outbuilding

Situation - Stocklinch is a small but surprisingly active, close-knit and accessible village.

There are main line train stations at Crewkerne, Yeovil and Taunton.
