Location
Meare is a very pleasant village about 3 miles from Glastonbury, around 5 to 6 miles from Wedmore and approximately 9 to 10 miles from Wells, making it well placed for buyers seeking a quieter country environment without feeling remote.
Rich in character and local history, Meare is closely linked with Glastonbury Abbey and is known for landmarks such as the historic Meare Fish House, whilst the surrounding countryside add greatly to the village’s appeal.
The village offers a useful range of day-to-day amenities including a well-regarded primary school, parish church, village hall/church rooms, playing field and a hosted Post Office service. The nearby Avalon Marshes Centre and nature reserves further enhance the lifestyle on offer, with excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and wildlife watching close to home. For a broader range of shops, supermarkets, cafés and everyday services, Glastonbury is just a short drive away, while Wedmore offers an attractive village centre and Wells provides further cultural, shopping and leisure attractions of England’s smallest city.
Description
Winrow Barn is on the eastern side of the village and was the principal house of a cluster of properties now being separated and sold. A smart driveway leads from the village road and to a parking area in front of the porched gateway with gates opening into the gardens.
(The property also has access from Church Lane on the eastern side.)
A pathway then leads to the house which has spacious and flexible accommodation including a sitting room situated on the first floor and which has breathtaking views. There’s also a sitting room on the ground floor which can be used as a fourth bedroom if required.
Ground floor
The front door opens into a large hall and beyond are a cloakroom, two reception rooms and a well fitted kitchen & breakfast room.
The dining room leads off the hall and has a stone fireplace and leads through to a siting room – also suitable as a 4th bedroom.
The kitchen & breakfast room has a tiled floor and an excellent range of bespoke fitted units including a splendid larder unit. Appliances include a cooker, fridge, freezer and dishwasher.
First floor
A staircase rises from the hall to a large landing which leads to a splendid sitting room with a window across on wall giving spectacular views across the bordering countryside and extending to the distant Mendip Hills. The room also has a fireplace and alcoves.
Also approached from the landing are bedrooms and bathrooms which include the main bedroom with an extensive fitment of wardrobes and cupboards and an en suite shower room.
There are two other bedrooms (both with fitted wardrobes) and a shower room.
Outside
To the south of the house is the swimming pool and terrace and the adjacent pool house with changing rooms, cloakroom and plant room (containing the filter and heating unit).
This pool area enjoys a south and west facing, sunny and sheltered setting with privacy.
The mature surrounding gardens include lawns, cedar, bay and silver birch trees together with box, jasmine and mixed plantings of shrubberies and hedges.

P.S.
A few extra comments
Mortgages – we can help.
Bridging loans – We can help.
Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.
Sometimes we can negotiate an agreement to suit both sellers and buyers.
Sometimes a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
