Description

This historic Grade II listed farmhouse, originally established in the early 16th century, represents a substantial investment opportunity for those looking to capitalize on its extensive grounds and outbuildings. Set within nearly 15 acres of private land, this property includes the original farmhouse, an adjoining former cottage that could easily be restored to serve as a self-contained annexe, and impressive former barns alongside a historic water mill. This unique offering is ideal for multi-generational living or generating rental income through ancillary accommodation or holiday rentals, given the planning permissions already in place. The property has been reasonably well-maintained over the past three decades but still offers significant scope for personalization and modernization. The traditional kitchen with an Aga cooker stands at the heart of this expansive home, leading into several interlinked reception rooms that provide versatile family spaces with stunning views over the manicured gardens and surrounding countryside. With road connections to key routes like the A303 and M5 nearby, and just a short drive from the charming town of Ilminster, this property not only offers seclusion but also accessibility. Its range of outbuildings boasts potential for conversion into additional living spaces subject to planning approval, making this an exceptional opportunity for savvy investors or those seeking a substantial family home with room to grow.
