Outside

Field

Approximately 3.4 acres of pasture directly adjacent to the cottage with appealing rural views back to Langport. One boundary is several hundred feet of glorious riverbank with fishing rights. The grass is good and the field well fenced but in a typical year the ground is too wet for stock.

Gardens

The cottage lies roughly central to its gardens which are on all four sides, bounded by walls or riverbank. It is divided into several zones which include courtyards and lawn. There is an attractive and substantial timber summerhouse.

Garage And Parking (20' 7'' x 10' 3'' (6.27m x 3.12m))

Up and over door, power, light, pedestrian door, driveway parking for one car. To the front of the cottage is a little used drove, it provides parking space for many more vehicles.

Agents Notes

Flood Risk

This is a wonderful property but is government designated as lying in Flood Zone 3b. It did flood twice in 2013 and 2014. Lloyds insure the property but will not provide flood cover for new business, however Higos Somerton advise that they expect to be able to provide cover 'as long as there is not a history of subsidence' ... Our clients assure us that there is not.
Since flooding remedial measures include a local bund, flood resistant external doors and removable barriers to seal the drive etc. Our clients have a contract for annual maintenance of these protective devices.

Private Drains

At the time of preparing these details the septic tank will not comply with new regulations so a compliant sewage treatment plant is being installed and will be commissioned before contracts exchange.

Riverbank

Our clients believe that their ownership extends to the centre of the River Yeo and that they have fishing rights. The Environment Agency have a right of way to access the bank for ongoing maintenance.

Public Footpath

A footpath goes past this property, there is a footpath along the riverbank but it is separated from the garden by a hedge so has little impact.

Drove

As is often the case with an old drove, its ownership is not known but this has little relevance to this property as long as field access is left free for farmers
