Falcon Close Seavington, Ilminster, TA19

The perfect lower-maintenance village home with lovely views, whether you're a young family, keen traveller or simply looking to downsize to a low-hassle, accessible and convenient property.

THE PROPERTY
Set on the edge of a small exclusive village development completed in 2017, this attractive semi-detached home offers the perfect balance of rural charm and everyday convenience. The current owners have thoroughly enjoyed living here, finding it an ideal first village home for a young family. Equally, the property would appeal to those looking to downsize, busy professionals seeking a low-maintenance lifestyle, or anyone wanting a convenient lock-up-and-leave home.

With the village hall and community shop just a short walk away, and the picturesque towns of Ilminster and South Petherton located almost equidistantly, residents can enjoy the benefits of countryside living while remaining within easy reach of local amenities and excellent transport connections.

ACCOMMODATION
A welcoming and generously proportioned entrance hall features useful understairs storage and a convenient ground-floor cloakroom. Attractive wood-effect LVT flooring extends seamlessly through to the kitchen, enhancing both style and practicality.

Bathed in natural light thanks to a large picture window that takes full advantage of its southerly aspect and pleasant village views, the kitchen offers a bright and inviting space throughout the day. Fitted with modern cream cabinetry, it includes an integrated fridge freezer, gas hob, and electric oven, while the integrated washing machine and dishwasher have both been replaced by the current owners.

Spanning the rear of the property, the impressive dual-aspect living room provides ample space for both relaxation and dining. Bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating an ideal setting for family life and effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining during the warmer months.

Upstairs, a stylish contemporary bathroom is fitted with a bath and dual-head shower over, concealed-cistern WC, and vanity wash hand basin. Attractive tiling and a chrome heated towel rail complete the space.

The principal bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and benefits from a built-in wardrobe, while the two further bedrooms enjoy delightful views across the village and towards the surrounding countryside.

OUTSIDE
The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped for ease of maintenance, while attractive sleeper-raised beds to both the front and rear provide the opportunity to introduce seasonal planting and colour. Enjoying a surprising degree of privacy, the rear garden benefits from its corner position and occupies a triangular-shaped plot, creating a useful additional area along the side elevation. The current owners have enhanced this space with two substantial hand-built timber sheds, ideal for storing bicycles, garden equipment, and outdoor essentials. There is also an outside tap.

The main garden area has been laid with artificial lawn, offering a neat and low-maintenance outdoor space. Fully enclosed by a combination of walling and fencing, it enjoys a sheltered aspect, making it ideal for relaxing or entertaining. A gate provides access to the rear parking area, where a private driveway offers off-road parking for two vehicles.

SITUATION
Falcon Close is a very small select cul de sac of properties, located on the edge of the village. Seavington is an attractive village made up of two small parishes, Seavington St Mary and Seavington St Michael, both with their own parish churches and sharing a lovely community shop and caf鬠recreation ground with children’s playground, village hall and pub. Nearby, the pretty village of South Petherton also offers a range of day to day amenities although almost equidistant is the Medieval market town of Ilminster, the centre of which is dominated by the ancient Minster and a thriving range of independent stores including butchers, delicatessen, hardware store, antiques and homeware stores as well as two supermarkets. Ilminster has a convenient road access to both the M5, junction 25 lies 13 miles to the north-west and 1 mile to the A303, now dual carriageway most of the way to the M3. There is a mainline railway station at Crewkerne c.5 miles (London Waterloo) which also has a Waitrose supermarket, and the county town of Taunton c.15 miles has a further mainline station (London Paddington) and a wider range of shopping facilities. Bath, Bristol and Exeter offer excellent cultural and shopping facilities within approximately an hour’s drive. The World Heritage designated Jurassic coastline lies c.20 miles to the south.
