DESCRIPTION
A rare opportunity to acquire this five bedroom detached Grade II Listed farmhouse, nestled between the village of Yatton to the north and an expansive area of North Somerset moorland to the south. Boasting an array of outbuildings and set within approximately 1.47 acres (0.59ha) of land, the property offers any prospective purchaser the opportunity to create a versatile holding, with the prospect for a host of alternative uses (subject to obtaining the relevant consents), whilst being set within an incomparable location.
The House
The property presents prospective purchasers with the opportunity for dual occupancy, however across recent years the property has been occupied as a single dwelling. The principle access to the property is via a porch situated to the west of the property, which leads to a servicing Kitchen. A downstairs WC and utility area equipped with a washing machine point is situated off the Kitchen. The Kitchen leads through to a Snug with fixed cupboard storage and fireplace. From here the property begins to ’open up’ via an extended hall way area which in turn provides the principle access to the first floor, a Conservatory with outside access to a neat patio and garden area, a Study, Pantry, Sitting Room and Dining Room, the traditional front door of the property which provides outside access to the north, a second servicing Kitchen with a washing machine point, with a downstairs WC, as well as another access to the outside via a porch. A secondary access to the first floor is situated within the second Kitchen.

The bedrooms have the capacity to be utilised as double bedrooms if necessary. The secondary staircase connects to a small landing area which provides immediate access to one of the bedrooms and a WC. The small landing area connects to a hallway, which in turn provides access to another 3 bedrooms and then connects to the main landing area. Please see the floor plan for the individual room sizes.
The property benefits from sash windows and period features throughout.
The property requires modernisation throughout and offers potential for spacious living, as well as dual occupancy if preferred.
