THIS stunning detached five bedroom country property is nestled in excess of a third of an acre garden, in Hastings Lodge just outside Ilminster.

A large oak porch and door opens into a spacious and welcoming hallway and the property is immaculately presented having been creatively extended by the current owners to provide generous and versatile accommodation.

The expansive open plan living/dining/kitchen area is amazing and it is also benefitting from underfloor heating and a feature propane gas fire.

The vaulted ceilings and fully glazed oak framed southerly elevation, has the feeling of a barn conversion, cleverly drawing the eye to the beautifully landscaped gardens and terrace and bringing the outside in.

With three double bedrooms on the ground floor, including the master en-suite, an additional shower room and wc, and a large utility room, the property has all the advantages of a single storey dwelling.

But with the added benefit of two further double bedrooms upstairs, one with an ensuite and the other currently used as a study. Both enjoy stunning views to the rear.

The agent says this is a truly outstanding property that will appeal to families and those looking for a life in the country surrounded by the best of Somerset’s countryside and excellent communication links.
