FINE & COUNTRY

Middle Burrow is a beautiful example of a 17th Century detached farmhouse and is delightfully situated in a small peaceful hamlet between the Exmoor villages of Timberscombe and Wootton Courtenay and is within a few miles of the coast.

The property stands in 13.18 acres (5.33 hectare) to include around 2.5 acres of the most stunning mature and manicured gardens with a large pond which is an undoubted attraction. The farmhouse, which is of immense character and charm is centrally heated, is predominantly double glazed and has been sympathetically improved whilst retaining many inherent features to include exposed beams, inglenook fireplace, bread oven and window seats.

There is a useful income derived from two self contained holiday cottages and two guest suites which are all finished to a very high standard. The guest suites form part of a converted barn opposite the farmhouse and can be used as ancillary accommodation or to take advantage of the bed and breakfast trade. There is also potential to increase the number of letting units by implementing a planning permission which is still in place.
