The latter offering a village shop, post office, café, healthcare centre and public house. The major regional centre of Taunton is within easy reach providing an extensive range of commercial, recreational and educational facilities, including the three noted public schools of Taunton, King’s and Queen’s colleges. The property is extremely well situated to take advantage of good road and rail communications benefiting from easy access to the A303 Exeter/London trunk route and the M5 motorway. Mainline rail connections are also available at Taunton with ever improving air services available from the international airports at Bristol and Exeter.

The property is approached off a quiet country lane which leads to a hard standing, parking and turning area for several vehicles. Here is a detached double carport with store and to the side is a small paddock. The gardens lie to the south and are separated from the parking area by a mature Leylandii hedge and are predominantly lawned, interspersed with a number of mature shrubs, trees and bushes, all of which contained within mature hedgerows screening the property from the road. Within the gardens is a block built workshop with alternative use potential (STP) and summerhouse. Further afield is a small fruit orchard. In total the property extends to approximately 1.19 acres.
