DESCRIPTION A charming period farmhouse together with a range of outbuildings all set in approximately 13 acres of grounds and land within easy reach of both Bath and Bristol.

Bell Farm offers a great deal of potential to provide a superb and extremely versatile family home in an incredibly convenient location and we are delighted to be able to offer it for sale for the first time in many generations. A Grade II listed property and believed to date, in part at least, to the 15th Century and then altered in the 18th Century the house still retains many period features including a fine example of a cross beamed ceiling on the ground floor, flag stone flooring, solid wooden studded front door and open fireplaces. The accommodation is arranged over three floors and now requires renovation and modernisation.

The front door, under a hooded porch, opens into the entrance hall. From here doors lead to the two reception rooms and side hallway with an enclosed staircase rising to the first floor. To the right of the hall is the first reception room with an open fireplace, window to the front and wooden panelling to each wall. The second reception sits to the left of the hall and has a flagstone floor, large open fireplace with wood burning stove, shuttered window to the front and part wooden panelling. The kitchen leads from this room with a window to the rear and range of fitted base units and dresser. Solid fuel Rayburn (used for hot water and cooking). A hallway to the side of the house leads out onto the side yard. Also from here a door leads into a vaulted store/cellar which would suit a variety of uses.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a bathroom. The rooms at either end of the landing are good sized double rooms, both with windows to the front and open fireplaces. The central room is a smaller single room. The bathroom has a period suite with a free standing claw foot bath, wash hand basin and WC. There is also a shelved airing cupboard.

Stairs rise from the landing to the attic space which is divided into three rooms, the central one having a dormer style window to the front. Subject to gaining the relevant consents, this space could provide additional bedrooms.

OUTSIDE The house is approached from the lane to the front via a five bar gate. To the front of the house is a small area of well tended garden and then steps lead down to a large productive kitchen garden.

OUTBUILDINGS Adjoining the house to the rear is a range of traditional buildings that provide an extremely versatile space with the potential to suit a number of uses and requirements, subject of course to gaining the relevant consents. Of stone construction under a clay tiled roof, the cow stalls are arranged in an L-shape with doors and windows opening onto the rear yard area.

Further to the side of the house is the former dairy, with loft over, workshop and store. In front of this is a stone built garage with calf house to the side. Beyond this is former pig sty and further barn/store.

LAND The land lies to the east of the farmstead and extends to approximately .. acres. Predominantly pasture land with a small area of copse. The southern boundary benefits from a good length of frontage onto the River Chew. The land along the riverside is level and then slopes up towards the northern boundary, a little steeply in places. Access to the land is provided from a gate leading from the buildings and also via a gate leading from Smallbrook Lane, which runs around the back of the back of the buildings.
