An attractive detached and Grade II Listed farmhouse with a self contained two bedroom cottage. Garden, parking and outbuildings. Paddock (4.6 acres) and former stables possibly available to rent.
Gentles Farm is a centuries old Hamstone former farmhouse offering delightful internal accommodation and having the major benefit of a self contained and separate, two bedroom cottage. Known as Rose Cottage, this charming ancillary home would make an ideal annexe for a capable relative, alternatively it could be used for income generation in the form of traditional letting or for short holiday stays.
The main, and highly appealing dwelling offers an exceptional amount of ground floor accommodation which incorporates former converted stables, now being the property’s principal and very attractive reception room together with a most unusual feature curved door. In addition, this welcoming home offers a dining room, sitting room/snug, study, downstairs shower room and a large farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room off which is a walk in pantry.
The first floor comprises four bedrooms and a bathroom with possible space over the stairs that may allow for the creation of en suite facilities (subject to practicalities and listed building consent).

Nestled within the historic village of Tintinhull, residents will enjoy a countryside lifestyle while benefiting from easy access to local amenities and nearby transport links with quick access to the A303 as well as two mainline railway stations within a short driving distance. There is an active community which offers amenities such as a good primary school, Church, heated outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts, recreation ground with a children’s play area, National Trust Gardens along with a village hall and coffee shop. Secondary state schooling is available in Yeovil, as is a college of further education. Independent schools (Hazlegrove, Perrott Hill, Sherborne Boys and Girls) are a short distance away.

Adjacent to this area is a two-storey unconverted outbuilding (with cider press) that also provides conversion possibilities (subject to the usual consents).
The garden is located to the front, side and rear of the farmhouse, mainly lawned and featuring areas of patio, ideal for garden furniture and outside dining. Further to the rear boundary is a stone outbuilding/store and gardeners w.c. and shower besides which is a stone base with what appears to be an ideal space for the creation of a large, Victorian style conservatory, the plans of which are available to finish the project. To the rear of the garden, via double pedestrian gates, is a large vegetable patch and another grassed area.
There is the possibility for the purchaser to rent an adjacent paddock and stables (totalling approximately 4.6 acres).
