Description

Home Farm is an expansive property offering significant renovation and investment potential across its 43 acres of gardens, grounds, and pasture. The site includes a Grade II listed farmhouse along with a detached bungalow, both presenting unique opportunities for improvement and customization. The main residence, Home Farmhouse, is situated at the end of the farm drive and features classic architectural elements that could be highlighted through thoughtful renovations. This period farmhouse retains various original features such as a decorative archway in the hallway, deep sash windows, and a charming staircase. While it requires a comprehensive update throughout, it holds considerable promise for reconfiguration to enhance living space or even incorporate adjacent buildings into its layout. The first floor contains three spacious double bedrooms alongside a smaller fourth bedroom and a family bathroom; there’s also attic space that could be transformed into additional bedrooms with the appropriate approvals. Surrounding the farmhouse is a generous garden area primarily located at the back, offering lawns and a productive vegetable patch nestled among mature trees—creating an inviting outdoor environment that can be further developed. The secondary dwelling on the property, known as "Look at That," is a detached bungalow that stands apart from the farmhouse with its own private garden. It offers an entrance hall leading to a sitting room and kitchen/dining area, along with three bedrooms and necessary amenities. This unit has potential as guest accommodation or housing for staff while requiring some enhancements. The outbuildings present additional avenues for development. The farmyard comprises various traditional barns and modern structures that are ripe for repurposing according to individual needs or business ventures—subject to zoning regulations. Noteworthy structures include a two-storey barn currently divided into workshops alongside single-storey barns arranged around an enclosed courtyard. While these buildings are in varying states of repair, their adaptability allows for creative uses ranging from agricultural storage to potential residential conversions. With gently sloping land conveniently divided into manageable parcels bordered by mature hedges, this property supports diverse agricultural activities including livestock or equestrian use. Access from both Common Road and farmyard ensures ease of mobility around the property. Situated just south of Wincanton, Home Farm benefits from proximity to major transport links including the A303 highway and nearby railway stations in Castle Cary (8 miles) and Gillingham (8 miles), which connect directly to London. Wincanton offers essential local amenities while the nearby artisan town of Bruton adds cultural vibrancy with attractions like Hauser & Wirth gallery. This property presents an exceptional opportunity not only for immediate residence but also as
