Description

Set within the tranquil hamlet of Saltmoor on the outskirts of Burrowbridge, this rural holding presents an unusual opportunity to secure a collection of three homes, extensive outbuildings and almost eight acres of land. Surrounded by open countryside and refurbished to a high standard by the current owner, the property offers impressive flexibility. It is well suited to multi-generational living, equestrian use, those seeking income from holiday accommodation, or anyone looking for a peaceful country lifestyle. Planning permission for holiday-let use adds further value and versatility.

The first of the three homes is generous in scale and filled with natural light. Its ground floor comprises a large dual-aspect lounge, an inviting sun room overlooking the grounds, and a substantial kitchen/diner, together creating a sociable and practical living space. Two comfortable bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the ground floor.

The Owners Love - We love how peaceful Saltmoor is without being remote or isolated. We are visited by all sorts of birds and other wild life with Moorhens that nest each year on the pond and hedgehogs that snuffle around in the borders. We feel privileged to live here and to be able withdraw from the rat-race at the end of the day to calm quiet.

The second dwelling has a lovely sense of character and works particularly well as a holiday let or permanent residence. The layout includes a spacious living room and a kitchen/dining room on the ground floor, supported by utility and storage areas. On the first floor, three bedrooms and a family bathroom are arranged around the landing. The design is simple, functional and ideal for visiting groups or longer-term stays.

The third property is the largest and main home. It has a more modern feel, arranged around a welcoming lounge and a contemporary kitchen and dining room. A snug and cloakroom complete the ground floor, while the first floor provides four generous bedrooms and a family bathroom. Across all three homes, refurbishment work brings a clean, fresh finish while the rural charm of the original buildings has been carefully preserved.

Matt Loves – There is so much potential with this property. Whether you want to make use of it for commercial purposes or for just a lovely peaceful place to live in. There are so many options! All of the homes are ready to move into and the setting is beautiful. This home is a very exciting opportunity.

A collection of garages, workshops, storage rooms and traditional outbuildings sit within the grounds. Their size and arrangement offer a wealth of possibilities, from secure garaging and hobby areas to small-scale business use (subject to permissions). One of the buildings is ideally suited to being retrofitted into stabling, making the property attractive for equestrian buyers. The grounds extend to just under eight acres, with paddocks and open areas that lend themselves to grazing, smallholding, recreation or simply private enjoyment.

Saltmoor is a secluded and scenic part of Burrowbridge, set in the heart of the Somerset Levels. The wide skies, wildlife and uninterrupted views across the landscape create a sense of calm and space, while the River Parrett winds through the village, offering riverside walks and birdwatching. Burrowbridge has a strong community feel, supported by a well-loved pub, excellent walking and cycling routes, and the striking landmark of Burrow Mump. Despite the rural setting, there is good access to Taunton, Bridgwater and the wider Somerset area, allowing for a blend of peaceful countryside living and everyday convenience.
