Summary

The Old Dairy House is a beautiful Grade II listed farmhouse situated on the outskirts of this popular village. The house is presented in superb condition throughout having recently been sympathetically restored by the current owners. A detailed programme of improvements have been completed to a high standard including the addition of a stylish oak framed garden room extension and the reconfiguration of the living space to create a stunning kitchen/dining room. The farmhouse has late medieval origins with many period features catalogued by the Somerset Vernacular Group including chamfered mullion windows and a cross passage entrance with stud and plank screening along with timber doorways. There are decorative moulded ceiling beams throughout with some having interesting ornate carvings. The huge inglenook fireplace in the sitting room has a bread oven or curing chamber, the equally impressive Hamstone fireplace in the kitchen dominates the room with a small carving over the main stone lintel of the reputed 'Green Man'. The house offers a clever mix of modern living with quality fixtures and fittings whilst retaining the important history and character of the building. Outside the plot extends to approximately 0.4 acres with countryside views, a range of outbuildings and gated drive with ample off road parking.
