Chain-free 3-bed semi with garden and solar — affordable route onto the ladder.
50% Shared Ownership available — 50% share from £137,500
A well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ilton offered as a 50% shared ownership slice, designed for buyers looking to get onto the property ladder with lower upfront cost. The ground floor includes a lounge, a spacious kitchen/diner and cloakroom; upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Outside there is an enclosed rear garden with a summer house and driveway parking to the front.
Practical running costs are supported by solar panels and double glazing; heating is by an LPG boiler with radiators. The property is chain free and sits on a 119-year lease, with low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working. Local facilities include sports and leisure amenities and a mix of schools nearby, including a top-performing primary rated Outstanding.
Important eligibility and cost points: this home is sold under Shared Ownership so you must qualify under local affordable housing rules and have a suitable local connection to South Somerset. The advertised 50% purchase price is £137,500; the rent on the unsold share is payable (example rent provided) and there are monthly service and management charges. Buyers should expect additional shared-ownership conveyancing costs.
Notable defects and limitations are factual: the NHBC warranty has only around four years remaining, the property is leasehold and heating runs on LPG rather than mains gas. These factors affect future maintenance and running costs and should be considered alongside the lower deposit requirement and route into ownership.
