The entrance is at the front and into a smart porch which leads to the main living room. This is a fantastic space with smart oak flooring and a feature fireplace with a wood burning stove. This room leads to the kitchen/dining room which is believed to have been a former dairy. There are fitted wall and base units as well as beautiful flag stone flooring, French doors leading to the garden and an interesting part glazed vaulted ceiling. The rear hall leads to the second reception room and has stairs rising to the first floor landing. The second reception room could suit a number of different uses and has windows to the side and rear as well as a fireplace.
The first floor landing is an interesting shape and has access to all rooms as well as a useful linen cupboard. The master bedroom is a good size and has windows to the front and the side. Bedrooms two and three are practical in shape and both have windows to the front while bedroom four is an unusual space. The room was previously used as a study and is currently used as a single bedroom. There is a dormer window to the side as well as a large built in wardrobe. Finally, the bathroom is fitted with a smart white suite.
OUTSIDE Lake Farmhouse has pretty cottage style gardens to the front with a path leading to the main entrance and a driveway parking space. There is a large pebbled patio seating area which is accessed from the dining space. This leads on to a shaped lawn with mature shrub and flower borders. There is a stone built workshop in the garden that is currently used as a workshop. There is a door and a window to the side as well as a water supply. This could be converted in to something more substantial if the new owners require (subject to necessary building regulations etc).
LOCATION The ever popular and sought after village of Nunney is situated approximately 3 miles from the old market town of Frome. The moated ruins of the castle dating back to the 14th century attract visitors all year round and the brook that runs through the centre of the village borders some of its properties. There is a school, local convenience store and a public house that provides both food and accommodation. Longleat House and its Safari Park and family attractions are within a fifteen minute drive and the village itself borders fields and attractive walks.
The Georgian city of Bath and its University are within easy commuting distance, as is Bristol. The towns, villages and countryside around provide an excellent range of social and leisure activities for the sportsman and countryman alike, with excellent walking and riding on the adjoining estates of the Duke of Somerset and Stourhead offer riding permits. Babington House and the Longleat Estate with its famous safari park are both close at hand. Golf can be played locally at Orchardleigh, Mendip and West Wilts Golf Clubs, whilst National Hunt racing is within easy reach at Wincanton and Exeter, with flat racing at Bath and Salisbury.
