Description

A superb semi-detached converted barn, offering a wonderful
blend of character and contemporary living, set within
approximately 1.45 acres of grounds in a delightful rural
position on the outskirts of Ilminster.

Corn Barn is a beautifully presented, semi detached barn conversion with a modern, light-filled interior, while externally retaining attractive Hamstone stone elevations beneath a tiled roof, perfectly complementing its countryside setting.

The accommodation extends to approximately 1,662 sq ft and is thoughtfully arranged across two floors. On the ground floor, a welcoming entrance hall with glazed double doors provides access to a generous dining room, positioned centrally within the home, creating a natural hub for family living.

A spacious sitting room located at one end offers lovely proportions, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining with a log burner as a focal point and designed for day-to-day living with direct access to the garden.

At the other end, the kitchen/breakfast room is a particularly impressive space and is well-appointed with ample worktop space and an abundance of storage in both wall and base level units. A cloakroom off the entrance hall completes the ground floor.

The first floor via the half turning wooden stairs offers four well proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom enjoying excellent space with an ensuite bathroom, alongside three further
bedrooms, 2 double and 1 single room that are all served by a family bathroom.

Corn Barn is situated about 1 mile North of Ilminster in a small rural hamlet location of 8 cottages and barn conversions surrounding the
former mill. Ilminster is a medieval former market town, situated about 12 miles south east of the county town of Taunton. Surrounded by undulating open countryside designated a Special Landscape area, the majority of the town falls within a Conservation Area with many character properties built of the local mellow Hamstone.
