This is a village-edge residential development site with detailed planning permission for five open‑market dwellings, extending to approximately 0.19 hectares (0.49 acres). The footprint includes multiple large agricultural barns, hardstanding yard and surrounding pasture, offering scope for conversion, rebuild or a new terrace of homes subject to the existing planning consent.
Key value drivers are the granted planning permission and sizeable plot on Church Road, with open countryside and valley views to the rear. The site sits immediately adjacent to Ilton village and within convenient reach of Ilminster, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—practical for future occupiers and attractive to buyers seeking rural living with connectivity.
Material drawbacks are clear and should be factored into purchase budgets: buildings require significant repair, partial demolition works are evident, and infrastructure (services, internal roads, drainage) will need investment. Tenure and council tax details are not provided. Offers are invited on an unconditional basis and the sale is by private treaty, so buyers should confirm service connections, adoptable road requirements and rights of access before offer.
This opportunity suits an investor or developer able to manage on‑site works and follow through with the approved scheme, or a purchaser seeking a rural conversion subject to planning flexibility. The site offers scope to add value, but costed allowances for renovation, remediation and compliance will be essential.
