Summary - Townsend Farm, East Quantoxhead, BRIDGWATER TA5 1EH
5 bed 1 bath Detached
Large coastal holding with consented barn conversions and paddock.
Grade II listed five-bedroom farmhouse needing full renovation
Townsend Farm is a substantial period farmhouse set within approximately 2.22 hectares (5.50 acres) of agricultural land, offering elevated views across rolling Somerset countryside toward the coast. The Grade II listed farmhouse requires renovation, while an adjoining range of traditional barns benefits from detailed planning permission to convert to seven open-market dwellings — a rare consented development opportunity in a rural setting.
The holding includes multiple outbuildings, three modern agricultural buildings and a large paddock to the west, making the site suitable for mixed farming, equestrian use or continued agricultural enterprise. The main house has five bedrooms but only one bathroom and will need a full programme of refurbishment; its listed status means repairs or alterations will require listed-building consent and specialist oversight.
Practical points are straightforward: there is no flood risk, mobile signal is excellent, and the location sits in a very low-crime, remote hamlet. Broadband speeds are very slow and the property sits in a remoter, agricultural community, which should be factored into residential or rental strategies. The sale is by private treaty and will suit a buyer able to manage listed-building constraints and rural servicing considerations.
