High Street

Renovated with great care and sympathy by the current owners, Bilbower has been transformed into a substantial and elegant townhouse. Tucked away in the very heart of Dulverton, the property enjoys a remarkable sense of peace and privacy, offering a tranquil retreat just moments from the town's amenities.

Steeped in history and rich in character, this handsome home showcases an abundance of period charm, from its thick stone walls to its wealth of original features. Arranged over three floors, the accommodation is wonderfully versatile, blending timeless character with the comforts of modern living.

At the heart of the home is a light-filled sitting and dining room, a welcoming space for both everyday living and entertaining, which flows seamlessly through to the kitchen and onwards to the delightful gardens beyond.

The upper floors continue to impress, with two well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom occupying the first floor. Rising further still, the top floor reveals a particularly special feature; with 3 bedrooms, elevated views stretching across the surrounding townscape and countryside beyond. Such an outlook is a rare luxury for a property so centrally positioned and serves as a constant reminder of Dulverton's beautiful Exmoor setting.

Combining convenience, character and a surprising degree of seclusion, Bilbower offers a unique opportunity to acquire a distinctive period home in one of Exmoor's most sought-after market towns.
As illustrated by the floor plan, the property is accessed via an impressive front door that opens into a beautiful and elegant entrance hall, setting the tone for the character and charm found throughout the home. With a ground floor office/storage room to the left.

There is also a useful storage cupboard ideal for boots and coats. Attractive slate flooring continues through the hallway, creating a sense of continuity and warmth leading to a further storage cupboard.

A door opens into the magnificent open-plan sitting and dining room, a wonderfully welcoming space filled with character. Original features include a charming former wig cupboard, while a wood-burning stove provides a cosy focal point. Bespoke shelving and exposed architectural details further enhance the room's charm, creating a space that is equally suited to relaxed family living and entertaining.

Continuing through the home, there is a walk in larder complete with cold shelf and storage. A gentle step leads into the kitchen: a beautifully crafted space fitted with bespoke units and centred around an electric AGA. Combining practicality with timeless style, the kitchen offers an abundance of storage and workspace, while enjoying an easy connection to the living accommodation and gardens beyond, making it the true heart of the home.

Stairs rise gracefully to the first floor via a turned staircase, leading to an attractive landing that serves this level of the home. From here, doors open to the principal bedroom, a further well-proportioned bedroom, and 2 beautifully appointed family bathrooms and separate W.C. The principal bedroom enjoys a peaceful outlook over the gardens, creating a light and tranquil retreat, while the elegant bathroom has been thoughtfully designed to complement the character and style of this charming period home.

The other bedroom is currently utilised as a home office, although it offers excellent flexibility and could equally serve as an additional bedroom, study, or hobby room, making this floor particularly adaptable to a variety of lifestyle requirements.

Continuing to the second floor, the accommodation continues to impress with three further bedrooms. Bedroom three benefits from its own en suite bathroom, while a well-appointed family bathroom serves the remaining rooms.

The largest room on this floor offers exceptional versatility and could equally be used as a home office, artist's studio, or hobbies room, adapting effortlessly to a variety of lifestyle needs. From this elevated vantage point, delightful views can be enjoyed over the gardens creating a peaceful and inspiring backdrop that perfectly complements the character and charm of this unique home.

A courtyard provides a beautiful outdoor living space that perfectly complements the home, creating an ideal setting for al fresco dining and relaxation. Even more impressive is the addition of a lawned garden, a rare and highly desirable feature for a property in Dulverton. Bordered by a variety of established shrubs and planting, the garden offers colour, texture and interest throughout the seasons while enhancing the sense of privacy.

This delightful outdoor space creates a peaceful retreat and further elevates the property's appeal, making it an intriguing and truly unique home.
