A delightful smallholding centred upon a modern detached farmhouse (AOC) together with a modern range of adaptable farm buildings and 31.7 acres of productive pasture/arable land.

Neroche Farm offers prospective purchasers the rare opportunity to acquire a modern smallholding with excellent communication links on the outskirts of Ilminster. The property is centred upon a modern farmhouse (subject to an agricultural occupancy condition) and set within generous gardens and grounds, together with a range of modern primarily clear span buildings perfect for housing livestock, fodder and machinery but also have scope for alternative uses subject to the necessary planning consents. In addition is a level block of arable/pasture land contained within a ring fence in all extending to 42.29 acres.

The property is being offered for sale by private treaty as a whole or in up to two lots as follows:

LOT 1 - FARMHOUSE, BUILDINGS AND 31.7 ACRES GUIDE PRICE £1,150,000
The farmhouse appears to date back to the 1980’s and is of reconstituted stone elevations under a pitched tiled roof and enjoys oil fired central heating and double glazing throughout. The accommodation extends to just under 2,500 ft2 and comprises two spacious reception rooms connected by a conservatory which takes full advantage of the rural outlook. In addition is a study, kitchen/breakfast room, a utility and office. A door from the utility connects a double garage with storage to the rear. On the first floor are four bedrooms all of which are doubles with the principal bedroom enjoying an ensuite. Although the property has been well maintained it is now somewhat dated and would benefit from a programme of modernisation to bring it up to today’s standards, but has the potential to create a fabulous family home.

THE GARDENS
The property is approached via a walled entrance drive which meets the house and provides parking for several vehicles as well as giving access to the garaging. The gardens surround the property on all sides and are predominantly lawned and contained within natural hedgerow boundaries, interspersed with a number of mature trees, shrubs and bushes.

THE FARM BUILDINGS
Benefitting from separate access to the farmhouse the farm buildings lie to the south and comprise a range of modern clear span general purpose sheds of steel framed construction with part block and part timber clad elevations under fibre cement roofs. In all the buildings provide 1,747m2 of accommodation perfect for livestock, machinery or fodder storage. Adjacent to the south is a cattle handling system and the yards are serviced by a number of open hardstanding areas.
