Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Immaculate 4 bedroom detached home
  • Parking and garage
  • Westerly facing rear garden
  • Popular South Somerset village
GTH are pleased to offer this 4 bedroom detached home, positioned in the heart of its own plot, with immaculate accommodation, parking, garage, westerly –facing rear garden and situated in the idyllic, South Somerset village of Dowlish Wake.



A wonderful chance to acquire this four bedroom detached property situated within its own grounds with garage, workshop, off-road parking and situated in a lovely spot in the highly desirable village of Dowlish Wake. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, sitting room kitchen, dining room and shower room to the ground floor and four bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. This exceptional home has undergone significant modernising by the current owners, whilst still leaving plenty scope for any buyer to put their own design preferences on. The footprint provides a clever blend of open plan living with intimacy and warmth, making it ideal for families and couples alike. All the rooms are noticeably light and airy and there is a great sense of ‘flow’ throughout. The stylish, well-fitted and modern kitchen is a beautiful addition and opens out onto the dining room at the rear which takes in garden views and also has direct access outside. To the first floor are two double bedroom and two singles, which are all currently serviced by the family bathroom to the first floor and the shower room to the ground. It should be noted, that depending on one’s needs, the two smaller bedrooms could be combined (subject to any necessary consents), to create an expansive master bedroom or utilise one as a study for those needing to work from home. Properties in this idyllic village, particularly of the calibre of Cobbs Lee, are a rare find and we would strongly recommend families, couples and those who simply want country life to view.

Dowlish Wake is tucked away from main roads in a hidden and beautiful part of South Somerset with some excellent walks and public footpaths, nearby, together with a farm shop at Perry's Cider, parish church and public house (The New Inn). The nearest town is Ilminster, centred on its fine Minster and Market Place with independent and traditional shops as well as supermarket, together with many clubs and amateur dramatics. Other main towns in the area include Chard, Yeovil and Taunton all of which have a good range of facilities. Communications to the area are excellent. The A303 is a dual carriageway most of the way to London and provides fast access to the east. Exeter is under an hour away to the west, and junction 25 of the M5 is about 10 miles north of Ilminster. There are mainline railway stations at Crewkerne (7 miles - Waterloo connection) and Taunton (14 miles - Paddington connection). South coast at Lyme Regis 16.2 miles.

The property is approached by its own private, gated driveway, leading to off-road parking and the detached garage to the right. Cobbs Lee is situated in the heart of its own plot which is laid to manicured lawns, patio and further complemented by mature shrubs and colourful flora. The garden to the rear has the distinct advantage of being westerly-facing, perfect for those who enjoy pottering outdoors and sitting out in the warmer months. It’s a fabulous setting for alfresco dining and enjoying with family and friends whilst those with children and/or pets will appreciate the safe and private space it offers. There is also a summer house (currently used a hobby room) and work shop which both benefit from power and light and a further garden shed too.
