A fantastic rare opportunity to purchase this light and airy
1960’s Woolaway bungalow situated on a large plot within a small
Hamlet of 7 properties in Duck Lane on the outskirts of the sought
after and picturesque village of Limington. Located at the end of a
no-through lane: Pippins, Duck Lane is wonderfully peaceful and
quiet being surrounded by open farm land. The property sits in the
middle of an extremely well stocked organic garden including
nectarine, plum and cherry trees. The property also benefits from a
20ft lounge-diner, full double glazing, oil fired central heating,
a large workshop (formally a stable) with light and power and a
large garage.
The accommodation briefly comprises an open reception hall, a
good sized lounge-dining room with new wood burner and double
glazed French doors opening into the garden. Leading off of the
central hallway is a newly fitted kitchen, a useful utility room, a
good sized recently fitted bathroom with standalone roll top bath,
separate WC and 2 good sized double bedrooms.
The property has undergone much improvement by the current
owners in recent years to include complete re-wiring, new kitchen,
new bathroom, new double glazing throughout, new log burner, cavity
and loft insulation as well as several new ceilings, new carpets
and redecoration. Outside, the workshop has been extended and the
garage has had a new roof. Both have the benefit of light and
power. The organic garden has been very well stocked with a large
selection of fruit trees and vegetable plants.
Pippins is situated in the middle of a large enclosed plot on
the outskirts of the small and exclusive village of Limington.
Limington itself has a church and a public house, but Ilchester is
approximately one mile away and offers everyday facilities. Yeovil
is the commercial centre for the area with excellent shopping and
leisure facilities approximately 6 miles distant. The area is also
well served by independent schools including Hazlegrove at
Sparkford, the Park School at Yeovil and Millfield in Street. Road
links in the area are good with the A303 Exeter to London trunk
road being reached just outside Ilchester while the M5 (J25) can be
found at Taunton. Yeovil Junction has a direct rail link to London
(Waterloo), while Castle Cary has a direct line to London
(Paddington). Bristol International Airport and Exeter Airport are
both easily accessible.
Pippins has been thoughtfully improved in recent years by the
current owners and the resulting property is of good standard
throughout. Viewing cannot be stressed highly enough to appreciate
the beautiful surroundings and the unique situation surrounding the
property.
Present owners will be very sad to leave especially their
gardens, lovely rural aspect and friendly neighbours but in need of
a larger artist's studio.
Early viewing advised.
