5 bedroom detached house for sale

An exciting opportunity to purchase this picturesque Grade II listed farmhouse bought to the market with the benefit of no onward chain. The property does require modernisation throughout but affords generous accommodation all round.


Nestled at the base of the Mendip Hills (AONB) with panoramic views to the rear, this character filled property comprises on the ground floor an entrance porch/boot room, two kitchens, sitting room, dining room and two family bathrooms. The ground floor accommodation has been split as such to create the potential for multi-generational living for a prospective purchaser, and can easily revert back to a single dwelling arrangement. The sitting room enjoys original single glazed sash windows, overlooking the front garden, as well as integrated alcove storage, either side of the feature stone fireplace. A similar set up can be found in the dining room, with an exposed brick fireplace and wood burner inset, with alcove storage cupboard. Both family bathrooms have been fitted with panelled baths, WC and pedestal sink, whilst one has the further benefit of a walk in shower cubicle. Complimentary tiling has been applied to all splash prone areas. On the first floor are six bedrooms as well as staired access into an impressively large loft area. Three of the bedrooms are double rooms in size, with bedroom one being particularly spacious and enjoys views of the rear garden and surrounding rolling countryside. A further three single rooms, allow the opportunity to create working from home spaces or upstairs bathrooms should they be required, adding to the already versatile nature of the layout. From the landing a staircase leads up into an original, yet unconverted loft area which subject to gaining the necessary consents, presents an exciting opportunity for further extension on the already plentiful accommodation.

A property of this potential is rare to come to the market and is sure to provide excitment, therefore an early viewing is essential to avoid dissapointment.
