We are delighted to bring to market this enchanting, enviably situated and magical five bedroom 16th century country farmhouse set in grounds of just under five acres. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, Kitchen/dining room, sitting room, dining room, study, utility and WC to the ground floor and five bedrooms, family bathroom and shower room to the first floor. With over 3,000 s ft of accommodation the possibilities are endless and buyers will appreciate the huge degree of scope and further potential. The current owners have taken great care to improve Rydiness Farmhouse to an excellent standard whilst remaining sympathetic to its age and character. The traditional kitchen/dining room is a warm and welcoming space for entertaining whilst the dining room is a great setting for formal dining and hosting family and friends. The sitting room takes in views to the garden and has some beautiful original features including exposed beams, stone-mullioned windows and inglenook fireplace – which also provides a wonderful focal point and practical source of heat. Those needing to work from home will appreciate the designated study whilst the utility and WC make up the more functional rooms to the ground floor. All five bedrooms to the first floor are of excellent and sizeable proportions and in turn are all serviced by the family bathroom (including shower cubicle) and a further shower room. For families and those who enjoy sharing their home with guests, the sleeping quarters work particularly well. It should be noted that one of the smaller bedrooms would also make an excellent hobby room or additional study. The situation, grounds and position of this remarkable, semi-rural residence provides any discerning buyer with a tremendous opportunity.
Rydiness Farmhouse is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the end of a long private drive, amidst rolling countryside and between the small village of Buckland St. Mary and the larger, twin villages of Horton and Broadway. Buckland St. Mary has a church, village hall, pre-school and primary school, whilst Horton and Broadway have a shop, post office, GP surgery and 2 pubs. For wider day to day requirements the property is also close to the towns of Ilminster and Chard, which both have a good range of independent shops and Ilminster also has the Temperley design complex. The county town of Taunton is close by with a rail link to Paddington (1 hour 40 minutes). Ilminster, Chard and Taunton can all be reached by local roads. There are good schools nearby both within the State and private sectors including King's and Queen's Colleges in Taunton, Wellington and Perrott Hill, which are all within a 15 mile radius. Exeter is 30 miles away and Bristol 50 miles away and both have airports offering flights to national and international destinations.
The property is approached off a private, no through driveway accessed by a 5-bar gate which in turn leads to off-road parking for a number of cars as well as the detached double garage. The property is situated with in its own pretty gardens which are laid to a combination of lawn and patio and further complemented by an abundance of colourful flora, herbaceous shrubs, pond, and trees. It’s the most idyllic setting for alfresco dining, entertaining and enjoying through the warmer months. The remainder of the circa 5 acres of grounds are fields, found beyond the private driveway. Its westerly aspect and sublime countryside views will be the envy of any guest with well-positioned seating areas adding to the romance of this sensational setting. The grounds will undoubtedly appeal to those looking for a taste of the good life and whether it’s, horses, sheep or even bees, there are few better places in which to keep them. Keen horticulturalists will appreciate the blank canvas, children will appreciate the freedom and such is the set-up, small-holders will find their own paradise. Back to listing
