Set in a private, peaceful position just outside Cheddar, The Barn is a compact detached barn conversion on a very large plot of about 1.2–1.3 acres. The single-bedroom layout is arranged as an open-plan ground-floor living/kitchen with a ground-floor shower room and a first-floor bedroom area beneath skylights. Double French doors frame expansive countryside views and lead out to orchard, paddock and a small stable block.
The property is chain-free and benefits from confirmed lawful use as a dwelling for over four years; a planning application for an extension is in preparation, offering clear scope to increase living space. Mains water and electricity are connected, but heating is provided by electric heaters only (no fixed central heating system). Private drainage and an EPC rating of 53 (Band E) should be noted.
This is well suited to someone seeking a secluded weekend retreat, downsizer or buyer wanting a countryside project with immediate occupancy and potential to extend. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal; buyers who work from home should consider alternatives (satellite/4G). The barn sits within a pleasant local community with very low crime and easy access to Cheddar’s amenities and schools.
Practical considerations: the accommodation is compact (approx. 498 sq ft) with reduced headroom to bedroom skylights, and the property forms part of a larger holding sold in lots — an adjacent meadow and further land may be available separately. The site’s rural access is via a private drive and there is a right of way across the access drive.
