4-bedroom period farmhouse with 2-bed architect-designed annexe (6 beds total)
Whitechapel Farmhouse is a beautifully renovated period home set in an idyllic Somerset countryside position, offered chain free and ready to occupy. The principal 4-bedroom farmhouse combines original features — exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace and sash-style openings — with high-quality contemporary finishes throughout. The space flows well for family life, with a triple-aspect living room, separate dining room, utility and a generous kitchen suited to everyday living and entertaining.
Adjoining the main house is an architect-designed 2-bedroom barn annexe with its own private garden and outlook, ideal for multi-generational living, guests or rental income. The courtyard arrangement, formal walled garden and sweeping gravel drive create a private, sheltered setting framed by open agricultural views. Extensive parking and a substantial quadruple garage/workshop add practical value for vehicles, hobbies or storage.
Practical points to note: heating is by an oil-fired boiler (not a community supply), broadband speeds in the area are very slow and there is a recorded right of way along the drive to access the rear field. The property is unlisted but constructed before 1900 and benefits from recent renovation works, including internal insulation and double glazing installed since 2002, reducing immediate refurbishment needs.
This home will suit buyers seeking character and space in a peaceful rural location — families needing separate annexe accommodation or anyone wanting a turnkey country house with extensive outbuildings and grounds. Early inspection is recommended to appreciate the scale, setting and versatile layout.
