Gardens and Grounds
The gardens and grounds are a delight and have been planned and planted for interest, colour and texture. The lower area of garden surrounding the lake is park-like in design.
Immediately outside the front elevation is a pretty courtyard style garden with stone shaped paved and gravel areas, central circular raised stone bed and shaped raised deep beds and borders planted with flowering plants and mature shrubs. The formal, partly walled and private west garden, has a view across to the church tower. There is an expanse of level lawn with inset beds of mature shrubs. A stone paved area ideal for entertaining, lies outside the dining room. There are deep shaped herbaceous borders, climbing roses and shrubs, stone wall with archways, and a sitting area with pergola densely covered with Clematis. There is a productive kitchen garden, screened by high mature hedgerow, with soft fruit area and green house.
At the rear of the house, wide stone central steps lead down to further lawn and the hard tennis court. Beyond, is the stunning lake with two islands, two Willow trees, and grounds surrounding the lake are planted with mixed trees including Silver Birch, creating a park-like setting. Around the grounds generally, are a variety of trees including Cedars, Maples and a Walnut.
The approach is between stone pillars and farm gate which gives access to a range of outbuildings grouped around a large parking central courtyard area.
Immediately beside the entrance drive is a stone and tile detached complex, comprising two stables, single garage, and workshop, at ground level, with a gym/home office with stone balcony terrace accessed over stone steps, at first floor level.
Opposite, across the courtyard is a substantially constructed two storey outbuilding/garage block with part stone faced elevations under a pantile roof. There is a double garage with two electrically operated roller doors and underfloor heating, and a two storey office/studio with kitchenette. There is scope to convert this building into holiday lets or ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary planning consents.
The Land
The paddock of about 1.36 acres lies to the west of the garden and can be accessed either from the grounds, or off Henmore Lane, beside the church, over which Larbunhum Farm has a right of way over adjoining farmland.
Laburnham Farm is situated in an idyllic and peaceful setting, slightly elevated, overlooking its gardens and park-like grounds, tennis court and lake, and across farmland to the Mendip Hills beyond. There is a lovely view across to the church from the adjoining paddock.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
