Fairfield House is an attractive and impressive former farmhouse with origins reputed to date back almost 400 years. The property is ideally situated alongside the A39 within a short walk of Williton shops and amenities. The village of Williton is a few miles from the coast at Watchet and Somerset’s premier coastal resort of Minehead is approximately 9 miles away. The County Town of Taunton, which has a mainline rail link to London, and access to the motorway network, is approximately 15 miles. Exmoor National Park, Quantock Hills and the Brendon Hills, together with the West Somerset coastline are all close at hand.
Subject to a program of considerable refurbishment and renovation to exacting standards by our clients during their 9 years of ownership, Fairfield House is presented and furnished to an exceptionally high standard throughout. The property now offers 6 individual Bedrooms with 5 bath/shower rooms (4 en-suite), Entrance Hall, Reception Area, Sitting Room, Dining Room, Kitchen with larder/Breakfast Room, Study/Treatment Room, Sauna with additional Shower Room and a Utility Room. Externally it benefits from a prominent main road frontage with signage, gardens to all sides, car parking, a Hot Tub and Decked Seating Area. The generously proportioned accommodation is equipped with gasfired central heating, double glazing and is arranged over two floors. The current owners have utilised the property in a variety of ways to provide a valuable income, including as a Bed & Breakfast, as a yoga retreat, running specialist cooking workshops and more recently as a large Self-Catering Holiday Let. The current owners do not live on site, however there is an opportunity to reconfigure the letting bedrooms to provide flexible one/two bedroom owner’s accommodation. A viewing is recommended in order to fully appreciate the flexibility and versatility of this beautifully presented and well proportioned character property.
Mike Phillips, Director of selling agents Stonesmith said: “We believe that Fairfield House represents an excellent opportunity to purchase an extremely well maintained and versatile property. Potential exists to re-establish Fairfield House as a thriving bed and breakfast business or to continue as a lucrative self-catering holiday let, or as a mixture of both. There is tremendous potential to develop a style of trade to suit individual requirements.”
The freehold business is on the market for offers in the region of £549,950. Full property details are available on our website: www.stonesmith.co.uk and viewings arranged by calling 01392 201262.
