Seller insight


Throughout our 31 years at Little Four Acres we have thoroughly appreciated the outside space, wildlife and tranquillity, with our children and grandchildren. It has been a haven for our dogs and horses.

We love the views, from the sunrise over the misty Somerset Levels to the front, to the sunsets from the balcony, and stargazing on clear dark nights, to the hills behind.

We enjoy produce from the vegetable garden, finding Field mushrooms in the Paddock and fruit from the Orchard. Fun has been had pressing our apples for juice and cider. Our local farmer delivers fresh eggs to the paddock gate each week.

We have been so lucky to have the space to host special events for family and friends. Camping caravans, motorhomes and live music with dancing for parties in the old cider orchard. Hosting Somerset Food and Wine Society's summer garden parties and twining events for the village.

The well-appointed kitchen features a range of integrated appliances including a microwave, oven, hob, and dishwasher, while an oil-fired Rayburn provides additional cooking options and warmth. Just off the kitchen, a dedicated utility room has been thoughtfully created to enhance everyday functionality.

The sitting room enjoys views across the side aspect towards the smaller paddock and features doors that open out to a charming water feature, creating a peaceful and private setting. This room was designed to make the most of the views across the Somerset levels from the bay window at the front that also frames beautiful sunrises. A log burner creates a great additional focal point. The ground floor also includes two double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room and a generous dressing room. A well-appointed bathroom with a spa bath serves the ground floor, offering a touch of luxury. A small study area has been thoughtfully created at the base of the staircase, which leads to the first-floor accommodation.

The principal bedroom on the first floor has been cleverly designed to take full advantage of its setting, featuring a private balcony and window with views across the front and rear fields, a perfect spot to enjoy peaceful countryside surroundings. This room also benefits from an en-suite shower room. A further double bedroom on this level includes its own en-suite cloakroom, making it ideal for guests or family members.
Step outside

Electric gates open onto a driveway that leads to the side of the property, providing ample parking for multiple vehicles. There are two garages ( one with EV point), In addition there is a useful office/guest bedroom room with its own toilet. Combined with the adjoining garage space, this area offers excellent potential for annexe accommodation, subject to the necessary consents. In addition, a generous store is the ideal place for ride on mowers etc and could be used for a small pony.

The gardens wrap around the property, offering a high degree of privacy and sunshine throughout the day. Behind the pony stables lies a further area of land that has previously been used for additional parking during social events. This area has an underground water storage tank providing water for the vegetable garden and greenhouse. This leads on to the productive orchards, which feature a variety of fruit trees including cider, eating, and cooking apples, as well as cherry, plum, and almond trees, a delightful addition for those with an interest in homegrown produce.

At the top of this area sits an above-ground pool, complete with pump and filtration system, a fun and practical feature for summer months. Beyond this lies a paddock of just under 0.5 acres, which houses the property's solar panels. On the opposite side of the lane, directly facing the property, is an additional 2.5-acre field with road access and a water supply. This land is currently let to a neighbouring farmer who grazes it and maintains the boundaries, an arrangement they would be happy to continue, offering a future buyer the benefit of the land without the upkeep.
