Home & location

My home is a very old fashioned traditional detached house in a very rural welcoming and friendly traditional farming community. The house has wood burners for heating and we live a fairly traditional cottage farm life so the house is old and weathered! It has one bed room and close to 5 acres approx field and 1.4 acre garden/orchard with many outbuildings. Downstairs there is a dining room and sitting room which is cozy and centres around the wood burner. The kitchen is due to be knocked down and extended so this is very old and not the prettiest I am so sorry to admit! It has an oil fired Rayburn and there is a loo downstairs and very posh bathroom upstairs but no shower. There are animals everywhere! Cats, dogs, chickens, ducks and the occasional spider, all of whom are welcome into the kitchen but not the rest of the house. This home is ideally for someone or a couple wanting to get away from it all rather than a person who needs all mod cons immediately. It is very charming and in a delightful, rural location. We should point out that there are a few tripping hazards in the garden so take care. The house is in the country village of Low Ham. Low Ham is a popular hamlet situated less than 2 miles from Langport and less than 4 miles from Somerton. The town of Langport has a range of facilities fulfilling most day to day needs, with a variety of shops including a Tesco store, medical centre, various churches and schools for all age ranges including the well known Huish Academy. The town of Langport itself lies only about eight miles north of the A303 which connects to the national motorway network, and is well placed for the larger towns of Taunton with its main-line railway station (London/Paddington), Bridgewater and Yeovil with their main-line stations (Waterloo+Paddington). Dorset coast is about 25 miles.
