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
Winterwell Farmhouse is an attractive double-fronted home enjoying wraparound gardens and open countryside views to the rear. Subject to an agricultural occupancy condition. About the Property.
Built approximately 25 years ago, Winterwell Farmhouse is an attractive double-fronted home enjoying wraparound gardens and open countryside views to the rear.
The well-proportioned main house is complemented by a separate annexe, ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or potential rental income.
Subject to an agricultural occupancy condition. About the Inside.
A welcoming entrance hall with polished flooring and a galleried landing immediately conveys the sense of space found throughout the home. Underfloor heating runs across the ground floor.
The impressive 23-foot triple-aspect sitting room spans the depth of the house and features French doors to two elevations, along with a Woodburning stove providing a cosy focal point.
Opposite, the spacious kitchen/dining room is flooded with natural light and fitted with a generous central island and a modern Aga, making it ideal for family life and entertaining.
Adjoining the kitchen is a large utility room and store room with side access. A cloakroom and a sizeable storage cupboard complete the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, four well-proportioned double bedrooms enjoy far-reaching countryside views and are served by a large family bathroom.
An additional room adjoining two of the bedrooms has plumbing already in place, offering the opportunity to create a substantial Jack-and-Jill en-suite.
A separate one-bedroom annexe and single garage are positioned alongside the house and offer flexibility to be incorporated into the main residence or retained as independent accommodation.
About the Outside. A gated driveway provides ample off-road parking, complemented by a single garage with an electric door.
The expansive garden is predominantly laid to lawn and wraps around the property, offering excellent scope for further landscaping.
Bordered by mature trees and backing onto open fields, the garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and a tranquil rural outlook. About the Area.
The Winterwell Farmhouse is situated in the rural hamlet of Chesterblade, enjoying a peaceful countryside setting surrounded by open farmland, while remaining well placed for access to nearby towns and villages.
The property lies a short drive from the market town of Shepton Mallet, which provides a good range of day-to-day amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, schools, and leisure facilities.
The cathedral city of Wells is also within easy reach and offers a wider selection of cultural, educational and retail facilities, together with well-regarded independent schools including Wells Cathedral School.
Further schooling options are available in Shepton Mallet and the surrounding villages.
The area is renowned for its attractive countryside, with numerous footpaths, bridleways and cycle routes close by, providing excellent opportunities for walking and outdoor recreation.
Despite its rural setting, the property benefits from convenient access to the A37 and A361, allowing straightforward commuting to Bath, Bristol and Frome, all of which are within reasonable driving distance Directions.
