A full set of front facing windows give a view to the garden, the livestock fields to the rear and off to the distance the backdrop of the South Somerset Hills all in a Southerly aspect making this more like a glorified garden room.

There is pedestrian and vehicle access to the garden area and a range of stone built and timber built sheds as well as raised beds, ideal for those seeking to grow some home produce.
The stone sheds offer a garden room and an outdoor exterior laundry room.
A summer house is also set to one side.
