Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • No onward chain
  • Beautifully presented 3 bedroom home
  • Walled garden
  • Outstanding views
NO ONWARD CHAIN. A modernised and beautifully presented 3 bedroom home with outstanding views, walled-garden, stylish accommodation and situated within walking distance of excellent local amenities in the historic market town of Ilminster.


An enchanting and attractive three bedroom home, occupying an elevated position with sensational views in a south westerly direction over the medieval town of Ilminster and towards Pretwood Hill and Herne Hill beyond. In brief the property comprises a sitting room, kitchen/dining room, bedroom and shower room with WC to the ground floor and two bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. This home has been lovingly updated by its current owners to provide comfortable and stylish accommodation whilst retaining its character and warmth. The sitting room is spacious and light and has the added luxury of a wood-burner whilst the kitchen/dining room is well-fitted and takes in views over the garden. The bedroom to the ground floor has its own ensuite facilities but could equally be utilised as a gym, study or hobby room, depending on one’s needs. The two bedrooms to the first floor are both considered comfortable doubles with the master bedroom benefitting from a magnificent vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. They are both serviced by the gorgeous family bathroom which has a separate shower and bath. 4 Bay Hill will appeal to first-time buyers, families and those who simply want a prestigiously located home in this increasingly popular South Somerset town.

Bay Hill is set towards the Eastern outskirts of Ilminster. Ilminster is a medieval market town, the centre of which is dominated by the ancient Minster. The town developed further during the Georgian period with many of the properties being constructed in the local mellow Hamstone. The surrounding land is lightly wooded and is designated a Special Landscape area. Ilminster offers a full range of shopping and other amenities, together with schooling at primary and intermediate levels with churches of various denominations. Ilminster has convenient road access to both the M5 and to the A303. There are mainline railway stations at Crewkerne 7 miles (London Waterloo) and the county town of Taunton 13 miles (London Paddington).

The property is approached off Bay Hill via a wrought iron gate which leads to the stunning walled-garden. It is laid to level lawn and further complemented by a border of mature shrubs and colourful flora. Its elevated position takes in the most breath-taking vista of the medieval town of Ilminster and the rolling Somerset hills beyond. It makes for an idyllic setting for alfresco dining and entertaining family and friends whilst sun-worshippers will take note of its South-westerly aspect. It should be noted that for those with children and/or pets, the outside space is fully enclosed and provides a safe and secure environment in which to roam.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
