SITUATION
Situated in an exceptionally beautiful and unspoilt part of Somerset, Barrow is one of four hamlets included in the parish of Charlton Musgrove, one of the largest in the county as it extends from the edge of the Stourhead estate in the east to the edge of Wincanton in the west. Surrounded by mostly dairy farms, there is a strong sense of community within the village and there are many events and things to do. Wincanton is the nearest town catering for your everyday needs including doctors, dentist, supermarkets and a bustling High Street. The local countryside provides extensive walking, running and cycling from the door with over eleven miles of footpaths and bridleways. Local attractions include the gardens at The Newt in Somerset, and Stourhead (National Trust). Dining options include Da Costa at Hauser and Wirth art gallery and At the Chapel in Bruton. Michelin started Osip has just relocated to Hardway (12 minutes by car). The area is well-known for its excellent choice of state and private Primary and Secondary schools

OUTSIDE
With direct access from the lane, the property sits on a corner plot and offers delightful gardens on all sides. You enter through double wooden gates to good size drive where you will find ample parking to the side of the property. The front garden is mainly lawn and partly enclosed by a pretty stone wall. The rear garden is much larger and very private thanks to the mature hedges. A stone patio runs across the back of the house, which is south facing, and is an ideal place to sit and relax. A generous lawn is dotted with specimen trees and a flower bed, and a variety of roses bushes and climbers are planted next to the cottage.

LAND
A separate gate provides direct access from the lane to the yard and timber stable block. Beyond this, lies 3.42 acres of gently sloping pastureland that is currently divided into four good size paddocks with stock proof fencing and benefitting from a water supply.

SERVICES
Mains water, drainage and electricity are connected to the property. Oil fired boiler provides heating and hot water. Ultrafast broadband is available and all mobile phone networks have good coverage.

AML
Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365"  to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
