A beautifully refurbished period farmhouse situated in a rural location. Good sized gardens, garage, extensive parking and a substantial range of barns and outbuildings.



Brookfields is a period farmhouse steeped in character and situated in rural location. We believe the property dates back to the mid 1800's and has been sympathetically modernised and refurbished by the current owners over the last 5 years. An extensive program of works have been completed which include; new roof in 2025, replacement windows, re-fitted kitchen and bathroom along with the addition of ensuites, new flooring, wall panelling and decor. The boiler was upgraded and a wood burner was installed, both in 2022 and a utility was added this year. This charming family home now offers beautifully presented spacious accommodation along with good sized gardens and an extensive range of outbuildings, barns, stables and parking.

The versatile accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises; a front door opens into the entrance hall with useful storage cupboard and doors open into the sitting room and dining room. Both of the principal reception rooms are well-proportioned with an abundance of character features including; Inglenook fireplaces, exposed beams and stone wall and an original circular stone staircase rising to the first floor. The dining room offers access into the garage with utility, kitchen and boot room/study area. A door from the sitting room leads to the main staircase and an opening through to the boot room/study area. The kitchen is beautifully fitted with a modern range of wall, base and drawer units with complimentary worktops over and incorporating an integral dishwasher, fridge freezer, microwave and Rangemaster induction electric stove. The utility at the rear of the garage has recently been completed and offers fantastic storage plus plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. The family bathroom is situated beyond the boot room/study area and is fitted with a contemporary suite to include; shower bath with electric shower over, WC with concealed cistern and wash basin with waterfall tap and vanity unit under. Finally on the ground is a conservatory which is an ideal place to relax and enjoy the gardens.

The first floor can be accessed via both staircases and you will find three double bedrooms; two of which have ensuite shower rooms and the third has a WC and sink. All three have built-in wardrobes.

This substantial family home must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

The property is situated on the edge of this popular hamlet which lies approximately 9 miles to the North West of Bridgwater, close to the Somerset coastline and having a public house within. The nearby village of Stogursey offers a range of village amenities with primary school, post office, village stores etc. Shurton is also within a very short striking distance of the Quantock Hills, an area designated as being of outstanding natural beauty and within which many rural pursuits can be enjoyed. As well as being easily accessible to Bridgwater, Shurton is within roughly half an hour’s drive of the county town of Taunton. Bridgwater offer excellent road links via the M5 motorway (junctions 23 & 24) and the A38 with the town itself offering all day to day amenities including secondary schooling. Taunton is a large commercial centre with schooling at all levels, both state and independent.

The garden to the rear is nicely enclosed and predominantly laid to lawn with mature shrub borders and an open outlook over farmland and the Quantock Hills beyond. A side gate opens to the yard where you will find attached to the property a traditional two storey stone barn with single storey former cow shed, carport, stables and workshop, along with a steel framed barn and hardstanding area for multiple vehicles. The barns offer potential development opportunities, subject to the necessary planning consents.
