"A LOVELY EXAMPLE OF A FORMER SOMERSET FARMHOUSE SET IN WONDERFUL GARDENS AND WITH CONSIDERABLE SCOPE FOR FURTHER ACCOMMODATION.

Bursting with character and with period features in abundance, The Bow occupies a really good-sized plot of around 3/4 acre in the heart of this popular village at the foot of the Mendip Hills. Reputed to be in parts 400 years old, the property, as so often with old farmhouses, has been added to over the years and now provides substantial accommodation perfect for families or simply those who like a lot of space. On the ground floor there is a sitting room with working inglenook fireplace, dining room, study, large kitchen/breakfast room, utility and cloakroom whilst upstairs there are 5 good-sized bedrooms, ensuite shower room and family bathroom. Most rooms have the benefit of dual aspect windows making them very light and airy, also able to enjoy the lovely views, either over the gardens or fields beyond and there is double glazing and oil-fired central heating. Outside, The Bow really does have fabulous gardens which are beautifully tended and full of attractive flowers, trees and plants. In addition, there is parking for several vehicles, a double garage and 4 former stables which lend themselves to conversion to an annexe or holiday accommodation, subject of course to planning. All in all, this is a truly special home which needs an early viewing.
