Edgarley Farmhouse was originally built in the 17th century. As was typical in the building of traditional longhouses of the time, much of the building materials used in the original construction at the front of the house was sourced from the reformation impacted dismantled Glastonbury Abbey, hence the large stones included in the face of the house, and those incorporated within the exposed inglenook fireplaces. The back of the house is of Victorian construction.

The farmyard adjacent to the house is no longer in use, the dairy cows sold back in 2004.

During the past 12 months the house has been substantially refurbished, new electricity wiring throughout (including car charging point), plastering, decorating and the installation of a new hot/cold water system.
