3 traditional barns for conversion located at the foot of the Blackdown Hills yet close to amenities.

Situation - The barns are located at the foot of the Blackdown Hills designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. They are also well placed being rural yet close to the popular town of Wellington which offers an excellent range of shopping, recreational and scholastic facilities. The M5 motorway is also readily accessible at junction 26 on the eastern outskirts of the town. The County Town of Taunton is a further 7 miles east of here where an even greater selection of facilities can be found together with a main line rail link to London Paddington, Exeter and the South West Region.

Description - These three barns are constructed principally of stone with brick quoins and benefit from numerous openings to provide excellent natural light particularly on the southern elevation. The two main south facing barns overlook the original part walled kitchen garden to Legglands and with the upside down accommodation will provide wonderful views across to the Blackdown Hills and Wellington Monument. The third barn comprises the former stables which will make an excellent Mews style property comprising hall, cloakroom, living room, kitchen/dining room together with two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The two adjoining barns will benefit from four bedrooms, bathroom (one en suite in the larger of the barns) on the ground floor and on the first floor cloakroom, living room and large open plan living room/kitchen/dining room.

Outside - The outside space will comprise the majority of the original kitchen garden which is partly walled together with further garden area and useful dutch barn which would ideally provide a parking area.

Planning - Planning consent was granted for the change of use from agricultural building to dwelling houses and associated building operations by Taunton Deane Borough Council on the 9th July 2018 under reference number 44/18/0011/CQ.

Local Authority - Taunton Deane Borough Council, The Deane House, Belvedere Road, Taunton, Somerset, TA1 1HE. Telephone[use Contact Agent Button], .

Plans And Boundary Fences - A plan, which is not to scale, is included with these particulars and is for identification purposes only. Purchasers must satisfy themselves by inspection or otherwise as to its accuracy.

Agents Note - Further land may be available by separate negotiation.

Continue following the drive around to the right where the barns will be seen.
