A beautifully refurbished Grade II listed three bedroom house with detached two bedroom annexe, in the heart of the Blackmore Vale.

Description

Marsh Farm House is a charming, Grade II listed thatched farmhouse, originally built in the 1600s with additional features added over the centuries. In 2021, the current owners completely refurbished and reconfigured the property, transforming it into a remarkably comfortable and modern home.

Upon entry through the beautifully designed boot room, you’ll find tongue-and-groove walls, a built-in bench, and ample storage. The spacious kitchen features underfloor heating, extensive counter space, an Everhot range cooker, and an electric oven. The adjacent utility room offers additional storage, space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and houses the oil-fired boiler in a cupboard. The elegant sitting room, with its inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove, leads to the stairs and a snug beyond. The guest WC is tucked neatly behind the staircase.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom boasts built-in wardrobes and a generous en suite bathroom. Two additional double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the upper floor. The loft offers potential for conversion into extra bedroom space, subject to the necessary planning and listed building consents.

The property sits on approximately three acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, including a lawned area with wild flower meadow beyond. The pond, with its island, attracts a variety of wildlife and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside. A gravel driveway leads to the house, where there are two carports and two wooden stores with stable doors. The stone workshop provides further potential for conversion into additional accommodation, subject to planning. Next to the annexe there is a heated swimming pool and terrace with lovely views of the countryside.

ANNEXE
The annexe, located on the far side of the yar d from the main house, includes a welcoming hallway, a large kitchen equipped with an electric oven and induction hob, and a spacious sitting room with a mezzanine above. There is a guest WC on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom, with additional storage on the landing.
