We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Stunning Grade 2* farmhouse on the southern fringe of Exmoor Description Dunsley Farm is a wonderful mixed residential farm in a sought after location that last came to the market some 75 years ago.
At its centre is a fascinating Grade II* Listed Farmhouse that enjoys an elevated south facing aspect with fabulous views.
There are pretty collection of traditional buildings within the farmstead which have potential for a variety of alternative uses (subject to planning) together with a useful range of adaptable modern farm buildings, agricultural land, woodland and ponds.
Dunsley Farmhouse is an excellent example of a multiphase farmhouse dating from the C16 with the lower end largely re-modelled and extended circa 1700, and with C20 alterations.
The stature of this farmhouse is signified by the quality and richness of its interior detail.
The farmhouse is currently informally divided into two but would make a fabulous family home if reinstated as one.
Outside; there is a well stocked partly walled garden to the south and a kitchen garden area to the rear.
Reflecting the site’s agricultural heritage, the farmstead features a collection of traditional farm buildings constructed of stone and cob under mainly slate roofs which offer opportunities for alternative uses (subject to planning).
The land which forms Lot 1 extends to approximately 18.28 acres, set within a picturesque rural landscape.
The land comprises a combination of gently sloping, predominantly south-facing and some level pasture. There is also an area of woodland with a number of ponds.
Location Dunsley Farm occupies a stunning, peaceful location just south of Exmoor National Park, an area renowned for some of the country’s finest countryside.
