The Vineyard is a detached property with landscaped gardens, former double garage/storage and superb Studio/Home Office with a vineyard and paddock extending to 5.5 acres in total. Council Tax band C, EPC rating E, Freehold
Situation And Description - The hamlet of Curload sits at the foot of Curload Hill on the edge of the Somerset Levels, an area known for its willow beds, basket making, and environmental sensitivity. Nearby villages Stoke St Gregory and North Curry provide amenities such as post offices, a primary school, a health centre, and churches. Taunton, the county town, is about 10 miles away, offering excellent schools, a theatre, a County Cricket Ground, and a railway station with regular trains to London Paddington. The M5 motorway is conveniently accessible via Junction 25, just 7.5 miles from the property. The area also offers excellent walking routes along the River Tone.
The Vineyard is a charming period cottage, recently extended and renovated to a high standard. Improvements include a new kitchen, bathroom, and a two-storey extension with colour-washed elevations under a tiled roof. Set in a peaceful semi-rural location, it features landscaped gardens, a timber-clad home office/studio, off-road parking, a detached double garage, a productive vineyard, and paddocks, extending to approximately 5.5 acres.
Accommodation - A stable-style double-glazed door leads into the entrance hallway, which provides access to a utility/cloakroom and kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units, complemented by oak worktops, a Belfast sink with a mixer tap, and space for a range cooker with an extractor hood above. An opening connects to the dining room, where limestone flooring flows seamlessly through much of the ground floor. The snug/dining room features a double-aspect layout, an open fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove, and access to an inner hallway with stairs leading to the first floor. The lounge/dining room has been tastefully extended to include a fireplace with a wood-burning stove and surround, large windows at the front, and an additional seating area with doors opening onto the rear garden. Upstairs, the main landing provides access to all bedrooms. The master bedroom boasts a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden, alongside an en-suite dressing room and bathroom with a fitted suite and built-in storage. Two additional bedrooms offer garden views, served by a separate shower room with a WC and washbasin.
Outside - The property features a gravelled parking area leading to a detached timber-framed former garage currently used for storage with electricity connected and door to rear and a gate to the garden. The lawned garden includes herbaceous borders with specimen trees and shrubs, alongside a brick-paved patio extending across the rear of the house. A pathway leads to a timber-framed studio/office, fully insulated with electricity connected and double doors, a veranda, and a pitched tiled roof. Opposite, across a track, are the vineyard and paddock, totalling approximately 5.3 acres. A public footpath runs along the edge of the vineyard on the east side of the field.
The Vineyard - Curload Vineyard spans 5.42 acres of level land, including a well-established 1-acre vineyard, coppice, and pasture. Accessible from Curload Village Road and Stanmoor Mead Drove, the vineyard, planted over 30 years ago, features Seyval Blanc, Solaris, and Muller Thurgau varieties. Recent yields have produced approximately 2 tonnes of grapes annually, creating 1,100-1,300 bottles of still and sparkling wine under contract.
The land includes orchard and amenity trees, with pasture used for grazing and conservation, and is suitable for equestrian use with local riding opportunities. Planning permission (ref 36/21/0012) allows for a 6.8m x 3.1m timber-clad welfare cabin with a small kitchen, WC, sitting area, and woodburning cooker. Additional storage and machinery buildings are also on-site.
