Description

A private parcel of permanent pasture with an area of hardstanding and range of agricultural buildings extending in total to approximately 1.82 acres (0.74 ha).

Situation - The property is situated in the rural hamlet of Southmarsh within the civil parish of Charlton Musgrove. It adjoins a paddock to the east and a residential property with land to the north. The property benefits from north-easterly views towards Alfred's Tower. The B3081 adjoins the land and provides access to Bruton, approximately 4.5 miles to the northwest, and Wincanton, approximately 2.5 miles to the southwest, both of which offer a wide range of amenities. The A303 lies approximately 1.5 miles to the south-east, facilitating convenient access east and west.

The Land - The land is split into two parts but predominantly comprises a generally level parcel of permanent pasture which has historically been cut for hay. Boundaries throughout are mature hedgerows containing numerous mature oak trees resulting in a truly private setting. The northeastern boundary is a pretty stream which flows consistently year-round. A good sized area of hardstanding is situated adjacent to the entrance off the highway and provides access to the buildings.

The Buildings - The property includes four agricultural buildings extending in total to approximately 3,000 sqft. The buildings vary in condition and are of timber-frame construction beneath pitched and mono-pitched roofs with a mixture of corrugated iron, steel box profile, fibre cement and asbestos clad elevations. Two tractor sheds adjoin the principal building to the north and benefit from concrete floors. The buildings have historically been used for the storage of agricultural machinery and equipment and offer scope for repair, refurbishment or replacement, subject to the necessary consents.

Services - Mains water is connected. There is no electricity connected but a mains supply runs along the roadside boundary.

Agents Notes - -The property is not situated in a National Landscape
-The property is not subject to any overage provisions
