A substantial 16th-century farmhouse with attached three-bedroom cottage and separate one-bedroom annex, set alongside the Taunton & Bridgwater canal. The property delivers highly flexible living across 4,167 sq ft (approx.), currently arranged as the main house plus two independent units — easily reconfigured to a single large family home or retained for income use.
Set in about five acres of grounds (1.25 acres included with sale; 3.75 acres of adjoining field included), the site provides large lawns, patios, mature planting, a three-bay open-fronted garage and a timber workshop. The canal towpath on the boundary offers peaceful country walks and cycle access to nearby villages and Taunton (around seven miles).
Practical details: oil-fired central heating to radiators, double glazing (install date unknown), EPC Band D and Council Tax Band G. Broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal; the construction includes original cob walls and later additions. Some outbuildings are being converted by the owners and further land may be available by separate negotiation.
This home suits a buyer seeking rural space and character — families wanting flexible accommodation, hobby farmers, or buyers prepared to manage heritage fabric and modernisation. Be aware of maintenance and upgrade costs typical of older properties (heating fuel, insulation, possible conservation considerations).
