Yarde Farm enjoys a tranquil situation on the edge of the hamlet of Yarde, itself located on the periphery of the beautiful Exmoor National Park. The larger village of Monksilver and the town of Williton can be found nearby (approximately 2 miles distant) and provide an excellent range of day-to-day facilities. The property is ideally situated for those who enjoy coastal and/or countryside pursuits with the coast just 3 miles distant at Watchet Harbour or 5 miles to Blue Anchor Bay. Whilst the property is situated on the edge of the Brendon Hills and Exmoor National Park, the Quantock Hills are still within easy reach being just 5 miles distant.
GARDENS & GROUNDS
Outside the property is approached over a sweeping driveway with garden to either side and in turn leading to the detached double garage with ample off road parking. The gardens are well tended yet manageable with a number of mature trees, shrubs and cottage flower borders. A terrace to the rear of the property affords an excellent outdoor dining arrangement overlooking the enclosed rear lawn. Back to listing
