Summary - YEW TREE FARM LONG STREET HIGH HAM LANGPORT TA10 9DW
Grade II listed late-16th/early-17th century farmhouse
Yew Tree Farm is a substantial Grade II listed Somerset farmhouse dating from around 1600, set in about two acres of private grounds with sweeping pastoral views. The principal house combines original features — stone walls, chamfered beams, flagstone and wide elm floors — with a sympathetic 20th-century extension and a comprehensive refurbishment completed two decades ago. The property includes a converted Rookery Barn annexe with independent living space, extensive parking, a three-bay Dutch barn and additional outbuildings suited to storage, hobby farming or equestrian use.
The accommodation is generous and versatile: five reception rooms, up to eight bedrooms across the principal house and annexe, and three bathrooms across the main buildings. French windows open from the rear reception rooms onto a terrace and private, upward-sloping lawn, creating a strong indoor–outdoor entertaining flow. The annexe gives options for multi-generational living, long-term guests or rental income subject to planning and listed-building restrictions.
Buyers should note important constraints alongside the many positives. The Grade II listing will limit alterations and may complicate repairs or extensions. The property's stone walls are understood to be uninsulated, and heating currently uses a smokeless coal-fed boiler with radiators. Broadband speeds are very slow in this location. Council tax is described as expensive. These are factual considerations for anyone planning major modernisation or remote working.
For buyers seeking rural character and space — families, hobby farmers or those wanting a house with separate annexe — Yew Tree Farm offers a rare combination of original fabric, large internal area (around 6,650 sq ft) and useful outbuildings. Its remote hamlet setting delivers peace and countryside access, with nearby villages and towns providing everyday amenities and several schools within easy reach.
