    About this property

    • Burrington Farm is a traditional Somerset longhouse dating back to the 15th century, positioned within an elevated setting in the village and enjoying views across the Wrington Vale. The house retains a wealth of period features, including exposed oak beams, flagstone floors, elm doors and open fireplaces. At its centre is a generous farmhouse kitchen, complete with an Aga, creating a focal point for day-to-day living and entertaining.

      The principal accommodation is complemented by a collection of converted barns located to the rear. These include two well-presented units currently arranged as self-contained holiday accommodation, together with a further garden room that has historically provided additional guest or bed and breakfast space. This configuration offers flexibility for a variety of uses, including multigenerational living or ongoing leisure and income opportunities, subject to the necessary consents.

      Externally, the gardens have been thoughtfully designed and maintained, with terraced areas and established planting. A former tennis court now forms a level lawn adjacent to an outdoor swimming pool, while the elevated position provides both privacy and open outlooks. A gated driveway leads to a central courtyard offering parking, with additional space beyond the barns. In total, the property extends to approximately 0.8 acres.

    I particularly like the combination of retained historic character and the flexibility offered by the additional barn accommodation — it provides not only a wonderful setting for day-to-day living but also genuine scope for income, workspace or multi-generational use, all within a striking village and countryside setting.
