Mearcombe Lane, Somerset, BS24

This spectacular hillside residence evokes the sensation of living among the clouds — a private world where the sky feels close enough to touch and every sunrise paints the landscape anew. The sweeping driveway, curving gracefully through the orchards of Thatchers, creates a grand sense of arrival, announcing a home that embodies both elegance and serenity.

Perched high above the rolling Somerset countryside, Hillfield Farm commands breathtaking panoramic views in every direction, a panorama of soft hills, golden fields, and endless horizon. A meandering country lane leads to private, gated grounds, where peace and privacy define every moment.

The principal residence exudes timeless sophistication. Every detail has been curated to blend classic country charm with modern refinement. At its heart, a beautifully appointed kitchen and dining room opens through elegant bi-fold doors to a sun-drenched terrace—an inviting setting for alfresco dining and evenings spent beneath the stars. The sitting room, anchored by a grand stone fireplace and wood-burning stove, radiates warmth and intimacy. A few steps lead down to a luminous glass area, a tranquil sanctuary bathed in natural light, perfect for unwinding, reading, or simply savouring the ever-changing vistas of the surrounding countryside. Completing the thoughtfully designed ground floor are a study, games room, utility and boot room, and cloakroom.

The first floor offers four sumptuous bedroom suites, each with a private en-suite bathroom. The principal suite is a retreat of its own, featuring a spacious and luxurious en-suite complete with a freestanding bathtub and high-end finishes, a lavish dressing room, and an additional cloakroom—a perfect sanctuary at the end of each day.

A separate two-bedroom, two-bathroom villa provides a serene space for guests, extended family, or potential rental use. With its open-plan kitchen, breakfast area, and inviting living room, it mirrors the elegance and comfort of the main house while maintaining complete independence. The annexe also offers the opportunity for the new owner to put their own stamp on the space, tailoring it to personal taste and lifestyle.

Beyond the residences, is a handsome stone outbuilding, with vast internal space, offering exceptional versatility—ideal for garaging, a workshop, or further development. The surrounding gardens are a tapestry of vibrant blooms, sloping lawns, and mature trees, thoughtfully designed to harmonize with the natural rhythm of the land. A timber-decked terrace, while offering a superb setting to enjoy the views, would benefit from some renovation to restore it to its full potential, making it a perfect spot to watch sunsets on the horizon.

Extending across approximately 15 acres of well-tended pasture and tranquil woodland, Hillfield Farm captures the essence of refined country living—private, poetic, and deeply romantic.

Additional adjoining c.12 acres is available through separate negotiation.
