Farmhouse with substantial range of outbuildings and seven acres, Regil

Welacre Farm is a three/four bedroom detached farmhouse set within approximately seven acres of pasture and woodland complete with substantial outbuildings including large barns, lambing shed, cattle yard double garage and summerhouse. Situated in a tranquil valley yet within easy reach of Bristol and Bath.


About the Property:

Welacre Farm presents an exciting opportunity to modernise and personalise a large three/four bedroom farmhouse in a wonderfully private rural setting. The combination of land, woodland and versatile outbuildings makes it ideal space for equestrian use, lifestyle farming or potential diversification (subject to any necessary consents).

About the Inside:

The farmhouse offers generous and well-proportioned accommodation arranged in a practical, traditional layout. A useful utility/boot room provides everyday access and leads into a welcoming farmhouse kitchen featuring an Aga range and bespoke timber cabinetry. The dual aspect living room is filled with natural light and is centred around a handsome stone fireplace, enjoying attractive views across the garden. To the rear, a dining area flows through to a further reception room or optional bedroom four, complete with a contemporary en-suite wet room offering excellent flexibility for multi-generational living or guest accommodation. A rear porch, currently used as a study area, benefits from a glazed doors-ending directly into the garden.

Upstairs, three spacious double bedrooms each enjoy lovely countryside views and are served by a generous family bathroom.

About the Area:

Regil is a highly desirable village with great views across the Chew Valley Countryside. It offers a great variety of routes for hacking, both on bridleways and lanes as well as lots of rural walks.

Chew Magna is just three miles north, which offers a comprehensive range of shopping facilities including a village hall, church and a variety of shops including a supermarket and doctor’s surgery in Chew Stoke. A more extensive range of shops and amenities can be found in Bristol (9.5 miles).

Highly regarded primary schools and secondary schools in Winford, Chew Stoke and Chew Magna, including Chew Valley Secondary School. Numerous private schools are in Bristol, Bath, Wells and Street. Walking and riding over the Mendip Hills.

About the Land:

The property extends to approximately 7 acres of Grade III permanent pasture, gently sloping and laid to grass, forming a cohesive and private rural holding around the dwelling. The land is well suited to grazing, equestrian or general smallholding use and is divided into manageable paddocks, bounded by established hedgerows and stock-proof fencing, allowing for the immediate keeping of livestock.

The pasture comprises slightly acid loamy and clayey soils with impeded drainage, suitable primarily for grassland and autumn-sown crops, and benefits from straightforward access from both the yard and the house.

A practical yard includes a principal steel-framed barn together with additional traditional and timber outbuildings, providing useful storage and potential livestock accommodation. Subject to the necessary consents, the buildings may also offer scope for alternative uses or future conversion, creating a well-balanced residential smallholding with functional acreage surrounding the home.

Directions:

Head east out of Chew Stoke along Gravel Hill, continuing for a short distance out of the village. Take the right-hand turn onto Lower Strode and follow the lane as it bends, before turning right again onto Whitling Street. Continue along Whitling Street and Welacre Farm will be found on the left-hand side.
