Donyatt, Ilminster, Somerset, TA19

A four bedroom country residence, set in just under an acre of mainly south-facing grounds, with beautifully appointed accommodation, parking, double garage and occupying a prime position on a no through road in the village of Donyatt

An impressive, highly versatile and enviably positioned four bedroom attached country residence with double garage and occupying a plot of just under an acre. In brief the property comprises an entrance lobby, sitting room, garden room, dining room, kitchen, utility and WC to the ground floor with four bedrooms (one ensuite) and a family bathroom to the first floor. There is also some very useful attic space. The current owners have modernised and improved the property to create the very best of contemporary living whilst being conscious to retain the original character and charm. The sitting room is a lovely setting to enjoy throughout the seasons, particularly through the colder months thanks to a wood burner offering practical heat and an attractive focal point. It opens directly out into the stunning the garden room, with French Doors leading out onto the gardens, seamlessly uniting inside with out. The dining room can be found at the very heart of the home with wood burner and ample space for a table and lounge area. It’s a fabulous space for socialising with family and friends and its impressive bay window takes in lovely views as well as providing plenty of natural light. The large, well-fitted kitchen is a chef’s delight with plenty of workspace, well thought out storage and the added luxury of an Aga. It is further complemented by a separate utility as well as ground floor WC. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms including a substantial master bedroom with inbuilt wardrobes and ensuite facilities. The remainder of the bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom. It should be noted that one of the smaller bedrooms would make an excellent study for those needing to work from home. There is a staircase which leads up to the attic space, and whilst this does not have building regs for accommodation, it provides useful storage space. With over 2,700 sq ft of accommodation, Park House is incredibly versatile as well as having a real sense of warmth and intimacy. Its semi-rural setting, grounds and situation will be a real pull to families and those looking for a taste of the good life.

Park House can be found on no-through road in the popular and well-positioned village of Donyatt. Donyatt itself is a small south Somerset village, with its parish church and public house. The village is surrounded by open countryside and enjoys easy access to all surrounding towns. Ilminster 1.2 miles, Chard 4 miles, there is easy road access to both the M5, junction 25 which lies 13 miles to the north-west and 1 mile to the A303, now dual carriageway most of the way to the M3. There are mainline railway stations at Crewkerne 5 miles (London Waterloo) and the county town of Taunton 15 miles (London Paddington). Bath, Bristol and Exeter offer excellent cultural and shopping facilities within easy travelling distance. The World Heritage designated coastline lies 18 miles to the South.

The property is approached by a shared driveway leading to the double garage and parking. The gardens lie to the west and south of the property are a laid to sweeping lawns, raised beds, colourful flora, trees and further complemented by a potting shed, outbuilding, polytunnel, summer house and green house. It is utterly idyllic and almost entirely private whilst its southerly aspect will appeal to those who enjoy sitting out in the warmer months. The outside space has been thoughtfully landscaped and designed to create an enchanting ‘working garden’ with plenty of alternative areas for alfresco dining or entertaining guests. Whether it’s a child’s playground, or a keen gardener’s haven, one would be hard pushed to find better.
