Most handsome listed Grade II farmhouse and annexe with a range of outbuildings and paddock available by separate negotiation.
Description
Stone Farmhouse is listed Grade II and thought to have been constructed in the 19th century. A most handsome and spacious property with a little over 4,500 sq ft of accommodation, Stone Farmhouse has part brick, part stone elevations under a tiled roof and is arranged over three floors. The property, which is now in need of modernisation, could suit a range of buyers since it provides the flexibility of ancillary wings (currently arranged as a flat and an annexe) which could potentially (subject to the necessary consents) be converted into one spacious arrangement as it is likely to have been originally. Currently a small area of front lawn and a terrace enclosed by a dwarf brick wall and railings provide access to the front door, beyond which is the hall and stairs to the first floor. On the ground floor is a sitting room with high ceilings, sash windows and working shutters and a Ham stone fireplace with wood stove. Beyond that is a study or bedroom if required. Back across the hall is the kitchen, beyond which is a utility room, with WC and access to a cellar. On the first floor are two bedrooms, both with en suite bathrooms (one Jack & Jill) and on the second floor are two further bedrooms.
The flat has independent access and provides a hall with shower room and WC, a kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom.
Agents Note
Purchasers will be required to install their own independent water supply to the farmhouse from the mains.
An additional ground floor annexe with one bedroom, bathroom and kitchen, also has independent access.
Outside
The farmhouse sits fairly centrally within its plot providing the best opportunity for the house to benefit from natural light. The house is approached from the lane via a private drive which splits to the north west of the property, leading to the farmhouse, culminating in a spacious gravelled area for parking and to a further area of hard standing providing additional parking alongside the traditional range of outbuildings. These buildings comprise of an attractive two storey brick barn and a further single storey building with covered parking or open storage. A further garage is situated on the southern flank wall of the farmhouse. To the south east is the main garden, predominantly laid to lawn, with some nice, mature shrubs and borders, mature hedging and several mature trees. A greenhouse is situated in the eastern corner of the garden. The garden backs onto open farmland. A paddock extending to 1.62 acres is available by separate negotiation.
Location
Stone Farm occupies an attractive semi-rural setting on the northern edge of Yeovil with lovely views to open countryside, whilst at the same time benefitting hugely from the close proximity to Yeovil town centre and the superb range of facilities on offer.
A short stroll from the property is The Trough Farm Shop & Café.
For equestrian enthusiasts, the surrounding countryside offers extensive riding opportunities, while sailing and water sports can be enjoyed at nearby Sutton Bingham Reservoir.
Yeovil has a vibrant town centre with a wide range of independent and national shop chains, several supermarkets, numerous restaurants, and cafés, as well as leisure and cultural facilities including Yeovil Country Park and the Octagon theatre.
Yeovil also boasts a strong sporting tradition, with a variety of golf courses nearby, thriving rugby club and Yeovil Town Football Club, affectionately known as "The Glovers".
The Abbey town of Sherborne is about 7 miles and has a pretty high street dominated by period, honey coloured stone buildings, also with an excellent variety of independent shops, a large Waitrose store. Dorchester, just over 22 miles away is Dorset’s county town renowned for its connections to Thomas Hardy.
The Jurassic Coast, a world heritage site, is typically under an hour by car.
Approximately 29 miles away is Taunton, the county town of Somerset, again with a large range of facilities including several retail parks, a popular farmers’ market as well as being home to Somerset County Cricket Club and Taunton Racecourse.
Yeovil benefits from excellent road and rail links throughout the south west and beyond. The town's two mainline railway stations, Yeovil Junction and Yeovil Pen Mill, provide regular services to Exeter, Bristol and London Waterloo.
In addition, four international airports, Bristol, Exeter, Bournemouth and Cardiff, can all be reached within approximately one hour, making this a highly accessible and desirable location for both commuters and those seeking a lifestyle move.
There is a wide choice of schools locally, both in the independent and state sectors. The nearby secondary schools include Bucklers Mead Academy, Westfield Academy and Preston School Academy along with Yeovil College of Further Education. Perrott Hill School comprises a Montessori nursery, pre-prep and prep school and other independent local schools include the Sherborne Schools, Millfield at Street, Hazlegrove, Bryanston, Wells and King’s College Taunton.
