DESCRIPTION Set on the edge of 8 acres of its own land, the property comprises a delightful period farmhouse, which dates from the mid 1600’s and is not listed. It has been beautifully renovated throughout, to provide spacious and characterful accommodation arranged over two floors, none of which is overlooked. The building retains many original features, including exposed timber beams and Blue Lias Stonework, whilst also incorporating modern facilities. In addition to the accommodation in the main house, there is a detached outbuilding, with a substantial games room, garage, workshop and store, which has potential to be converted into an annexe if required, subject to the necessary consents. There is a large private driveway at the back of the house and a terrace overlooking the grounds. The land runs down to the property’s north eastern boundary and is easily managed, being mainly pasture, with ponds and some woodland. Whilst the property is within close proximity of The River Parrett and on the edge of the Somerset Levels, it is important to note that Lovibonds Farm has no flood history and that the whole of Riverside road has benefitted from the instillation of a significant flood defence barrier in recent years.
