Farringdon, North Petherton, Bridgwater, Somerset, TA6

A beautiful barn conversion immaculately presented throughout and offering generous living space comparable to a four-bedroom home but thoughtfully designed to provide a better balance of accommodation with two large bedrooms and spacious living areas.

Tucked away behind attractive walled and enclosed gardens, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy. Portman Barn offers a wonderful combination of character, comfort and practicality, making it an excellent choice either as a main residence or as a secure, low-maintenance lock-up-and-leave home.

The current owners have made significant improvements, including the installation of solar panels, battery storage, EV Charger and Air Source Heat Pump resulting in an impressive A-rated EPC.

SELLERS INSIGHT
For the past 12 years, Portman Barn has been so much more than a house, it has been our home. From the moment we first walked through the door, we knew it was somewhere special. We've cherished its beautiful blend of character and modern comfort, with its stunning, light-filled, spacious rooms that have welcomed family and friends throughout the years.

Despite its generous size, the barn is wonderfully energy efficient, making it as practical as it is beautiful.

Some of our happiest memories have been spent outdoors. Whether relaxing in the hot tub beneath the stars, enjoying long summer evenings in the beautifully designed outdoor living area, or simply listening to the peaceful sounds of the countryside with a morning coffee, this home has offered us a lifestyle that is both tranquil and uplifting. It is a place to unwind, entertain, and truly appreciate every season.

Leaving Portman Barn is not an easy decision, but we hope its next owners will fall in love with it just as we did and create their own wonderful memories in this very special home.

STEP INSIDE
Converted to a high standard, with hardwood windows and doors, the property retains the character and charm of the original barn while offering stylish, practical and beautifully presented living space.

A stable door opens into the kitchen/dining room, an impressive space with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and travertine tiled flooring with underfloor heating, which extends throughout the property. The kitchen was recently updated fitted with a range of units, integrated dishwasher and central island, with windows overlooking the private walled courtyard. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, making this a wonderful sociable heart to the home.

A separate sitting room offers a cosy and inviting feel, complete with a wood-burning stove and doors and windows opening onto the courtyard. A large inner hallway, with Karndean flooring with windows overlooking the courtyard, creates a bright and welcoming central space, while the utility room provides an ideal area for keeping everyday essentials tucked away and also houses the air source heat pump. Adjacent to the utility is a small cloakroom.

The principal bedroom offers a real sense of space, with featured arched window with seat that looks onto the courtyard, while the second bedroom is also a generous double. The bathroom adds a further touch of luxury, featuring a high ceiling, sculpted Victoria and Albert bath, separate large walk-in shower enclosure and beautifully tiled walls and flooring.
