WREATH FARMHOUSE
The sale of Wreath Farmhouse and cottages offers purchasers a unique opportunity to acquire a substantial and versatile family home currently producing an excellent income stream, located in a secluded semi rural position with far reaching country views. Dating from mid Victorian times, the main house is principally stone built with brick detail set beneath a part tile and part slate roof. In recent years the house has been comprehensively refurbished and now affords exceptionally well proportioned family accommodation which includes two principal reception rooms, a fabulous kitchen/breakfast room that opens into a bespoke conservatory with views across surrounding countryside and four double bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities. Heating for both The Farmhouse and The Stables is provided by a biomass boiler to radiators, supplemented by open fireplaces and underfloor heating and photo voltaic panels return a surplus to the national grid.
A wide gravelled courtyard provides excellent parking for numerous vehicles and access to a useful games room and workshop.
The gardens and grounds are mainly east and south facing with sweeping lawns, established shrubs and trees, well stocked herbaceous borders and a mass of spring bulbs. The well fenced paddock extending to just over 2 acres provides excellent ecosystem for a variety of wildlife and birds. In all the grounds extend to an estimated 3 Acres.

The Farmhouse, The Cowshed and The Apple Press are currently let through Classic Cottages and generating a regular income the property is equally suited to full residential occupancy.

THE STABLES
The Stables annexe is connected to the main house but is entirely self contained with independent access and is fitted to an equally high standard. Ideally suited as a stand-alone holiday let or for occupation by a dependent relative, the accommodation provides a lovely open plan kitchen living room and two double bedrooms both with wet rooms.

THE COWSHED
Built of mellow stone set beneath a tiled roof, this recently converted single storey cottage is presented to a high standard throughout and benefits from underfloor heating and quality double glazing. South facing and with vaulted ceilings, the kitchen/living room is light, airy and well fitted and both the bedrooms are generous doubles with smart en-suite shower rooms. There is a lovely private garden at the front, fully enclosed with paved and gravelled areas and enjoying country views.

THE APPLE PRESS
Converted at the same time as The Cowshed, with stone elevations and brick detailing, the property is presented to a high standard throughout and again benefits from underfloor heating. The accommodation provides a stunning open plan living room with vaulted ceiling, french doors to the terrace and leads to a comprehensively fitted kitchen. There are three double bedrooms, one with en-suite facilities and a smart family bathroom. The garden offers privacy and seclusion with a paved terrace, lawn and a pleasant open outlook. Also let through Classic Cottages, the property has been producing excellent income.

The property is located at the head of an unadopted 'no through' lane in an elevated position in this peaceful and very beautiful corner of South Somerset, close to the borders with both Devon and Dorset and enjoys superb long range views down the Axe Valley. Although secluded, the property is by no means isolated being some 1.5 miles from the small town of Chard with a good range of daily amenities and some 6 miles from Crewkerne with the benefit of a Waitrose supermarket and mainline rail link to London Waterloo. To the south lies the World Heritage Jurassic Coast with traditional coastal towns such as Lyme Regis with its renowned Cobb Harbour, whilst the county town of Taunton some 16 miles to the north provides a rail link to London Paddington and easy access to the M5 motorway.
The A303 at Ilminster also gives easy access to the south east and there are good international airports at Bristol and Exeter.
