OUTSIDE
The property is situated away from any busy roads via a private driveway with a five bar gate opening to the secluded plot. Ample parking can be had for five to six cars with the driveway sweeping to the side of the property to the large, attached garage which could be used for a multitude of uses.

Steps lead down to the River Axe which provides a wonderful area for paddling and enjoying the water flowing by. The property has never been affected by the river with it being substantially lower than the plot.
Over the years the garden has been carefully tended and offers an incredible opportunity for someone to place their mark on it. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mown pathways, wild flowers and mature fruit trees along with an abundance of soft fruit bushes and shrubs. Within the garden is a wonderful shed with a wood burner, perfect for storage of mowers or perhaps some quiet time looking out over the gardens and towards The Mendip Hills. A wooden five bar gate provides access into the level paddock, laid to lawn and measuring just shy of 1.5 acres, perfect for animals or a wonderful area for children to play.
