About This Property
A beautifully situated residential and equestrian holding with far reaching views over the Taunton Vale, comprising a detached farmhouse with further detached cottage, excellent equestrian facilities including stables, menage and pasture. In all about 14.94 acres.
Having been in the ownership of our vendor for 25 years the sale of Bakers Hall Farm represents a rare opportunity to acquire an adaptable residential and equestrian holding occupying a delightful and yet readily accessible position within an extremely sought-after part of rural South Somerset.
The current owner has tastefully restored and improved the property, retaining a wealth of character and now affords exceptionally well-presented, modern and spacious accommodation. The residential appeal of the property is further enhanced by the second dwelling, known as Barnleigh, providing a delightful detached character barn conversion, which will offer appeal to those buyers seeking multi-generational living or indeed an additional income source.
The equestrian appeal of the property is complimented by the excellent range of facilities and include an extensive range of former farm building, stables, concrete yards and a rubber based menage. Whilst currently utilised for equestrian purposes the buildings may offer the scope for alternative uses subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.
The adjoining land is currently down to pasture and is considered well suited to agricultural, equestrian or other amenity uses.
Bakers Hall Farm extends in total to about 14.94 Acres and is offered for sale as a whole.
Bakers Hall Farm enjoys an enviable and elevated position lying within the picturesque South Somerset countryside and enjoys far reaching views over the Taunton Vale and beyond towards the Mendip Hills.
Despite its rural position the property still enjoys easy access to the surrounding districts and main routes of communication, with the village of Combe St Nicholas lying approximately 1 mile to the south. Combe St Nicholas provides a thriving local community with primary school, village hall, parish church, public house and village store / Post Office whilst the larger centre of Chard lies approximately 4 miles distant and affords a good range of everyday shopping, banking, recreational and educational services. The larger centre of Taunton lies approximately 11 miles to the north and affords an extensive range of commercial, educational and recreational facilities befitting those of an important regional and administrative centre, together with a wide range of primary, secondary and further education facilities including three noted public schools.
Access to the A30/A303 Exeter/London trunk route is approximately 2 miles distant with main line rail connections to London (Waterloo) at Axminster and London (Paddington) at Taunton which also provides access to the M5 motorway (J25). An international airport is available at Exeter and the world renowned 'Jurassic' south coast may be reached some 16 miles to the south.
