A pump house with WC and sink offers convenient changing facilities beside the pool. The gardens extend towards the barn, beautifully cultivated with colourful borders, and are complemented by a timber workshop with light, power and concrete flooring, a potting shed, and tandem stables. The stable block accommodates two horses, with the enclosed paddock available for grazing if desired. Additional features include a secure outdoor storage area with a large galvanised storeroom.

SELLERS INSIGHT

We chose this house when we were working and wanted easy access to the M5 motorway. Thirteen years on and we will forever treasure memories of relaxing by the pool on summer evenings and weekends and going on scenic country walks in virtually any direction from the front door.

We were always well supported when hosting parties, be it indoors or out. We had up to 22 people for Christmas dinner at times!!
We extended the house to achieve a large ground floor self-contained annex, which we have made great use of as a home gym and games room! The golf course was a fun project and has been invaluable to improving our short games!!

The only downside that we can think of is finding places to go for weekends away that have better facilities than 'The Olde Canal Barn!

From Taunton at M5 J25, take the A358 in an easterly direction towards Ilminster. At the Thornfalcon traffic lights bear left onto the A378 towards Langport.

Follow this road for approximately 0.5 miles and near the bottom of the hill, the road bends to the left into the hamlet. The property will be found just before The Far Canal public house on the left-hand side. The property will be accessed by electric gates.
