House For Sale £270,000
A very smartly presented property on this popular development just a short hop from the traffic-free cycle path that takes you straight into countryside, and well placed for both the town and excellent road links.
The Property
Part of a development built in 2002, this smartly presented property has been much improved over the years and now offers a chance for a new owner to buy a no-hassle home in a popular cul de sac. Well placed for both the town, the adjoining countryside, the health centre and recreation fields, it would be the ideal first or second time buy as well as for those looking to downsize to a lower maintenance property. It is set in an easy to keep plot with sunny back garden and useful adjoining single garage.
The UPVC double glazed front door opens to an entrance hall with attractive lvt wood effect flooring. The stairs rise to the first floor with a useful understairs cupboard providing space for coats, shoes and household essentials. To one side is an well presented cloakroom with window to the front, fitted with grey ceramic tiled floor, corner wash hand basin and WC.
The living / dining room is dual aspect with window to the front and French doors opening onto the rear garden. The practical and attractive wood effect flooring extends throughout this room, with ample space for a dining table nearest the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a range of birch units and is surprisingly well laid out to create room not only for a washing machine and slimline dishwasher but also a tumble dryer if required. There’s ample storage by way of both floor and wall mounted units and space behind the door for an upright fridge freezer. The gas hob and cooker hood are integrated as is the electric oven beneath (see agents note). The gas boiler is tucked away within the kitchen units.
On the first floor, the turning staircase leads up to the landing which provides access to the loft space via hatch, and an airing cupboard with hot water tank and shelving.
The bathroom has been updated with contemporary suite comprising panelled bath with Mira Sport shower, pedestal wash hand basin, and WC, complemented by smart grey tiling.
There are three bedrooms, including a main bedroom with feature wall panelling and double fitted wardrobe. The second double room also includes a double fitted wardrobe and overlooks the rear.
Outside
To the rear is a lawned garden with raised patio area, and sleeper-edged flower bed. A stepping-stone path leads to the pedestrian garage door. There is also an outside tap.
The single garage is located immediately adjoining the garden and has light connected, with an up and over door to the front. At the end of the block of three garages is an additional allocated parking space.
Agents Note
There is a managing agent (Meadfleet) who deal with the provision and maintenance of communal areas on the development including street lighting etc. Twice-yearly invoices are provided to cover works that are carried out. The agent holds a copy of the last two invoices should a buyer wish to see them.
Please note, the integrated oven may need repair or replacement.
Carnival Close is located off Canal Way on the south-western side of the town and ideally placed with a level walk to the recreation ground, play area and tennis courts. It’s just a short walk from the Ilminster - Chard cycle path which follows the route of the disused railway line through the South Somerset countryside and is very popular with dog-walkers and cyclists. It's also conveniently placed within easy of the doctors' surgeries and local schools, as well as the wide range of facilities in the town centre. Closer still is the Texaco garage with Spar store for those last-minute groceries, whilst the Stonemasons Pub is just a short walk away. With the town centre the local stores are mostly centred around the market square and 15th century Minster church and have the town centre. Alongside the supermarket is a bowls club and tennis club. There is also a town library.
Ilminster Arts centre is a vibrant arts venue with licensed cafe. There are plenty of other places to eat too, including pubs, restaurants, cafes and takeaways. The town also benefits from several hairdressers / beauty salons and a dental surgery as well as modern health centre on the southern side of the town with two doctors' surgeries. Ilminster is arguably one of South-Somerset's prettiest market towns and benefits from superb road links via the A303 and A358. The town has a newly merged Primary School covering the 4-11 years age range.
