This beautifully converted former mill barn occupies grounds approaching one acre in the small rural hamlet of Ashwell that is surrounded by undulating open countryside and is just one mile north of Ilminster while Chard is five miles away.

The three-bedroom detached barn conversion, named Bull Barn, comes to the market for the first time in nearly 20 years, a testament to what a wonderful and loved home it has been.

Inside, the property is presented in excellent decorative order and has several pleasant, charming features such as exposed beams, wooden flooring in some rooms and a brick fireplace. What is immediately obvious is how light and spacious the barn is, particularly in the dual-aspect sitting room which has an attractive brick-built fireplace and a wood-burner. The kitchen has a distinctive country cottage-feel look to it with a good range of cream-coloured units, wooden worksurfaces and plenty of space for appliances. The kitchen leads directly through to the dining room, which is large enough to comfortably accommodate a family table and chairs.

On the first floor, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a smart family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from having built-in wardrobes and a luxury ensuite bathroom.

Outside, the barn is surrounded by an almost entirely private, pretty cottage garden. The large garden is around one acre in size and has been thoughtfully landscaped with a level lawn, a patio and is complemented by an abundance of colourful flora and mature shrubs.

The property also benefits from having a large paddock.

Bull Barn is approached via a private driveway giving access to a garage and plenty of space for parking.
