Property description

This remarkable modern family home must be viewed to appreciate the quality of accommodation on offer and to appreciate the versatility of the site and property alike. 


Yellands is a unique and beautiful property offering well-appointed and flexible accommodation in a gloriously tranquil and private setting. Built by the current owners in 2006 this modern bespoke home has been sympathetically designed to replicate a traditional stone farm building that has been converted and naturally extended over a period of time. Comprising of a mixture of Hamstone, red brick and timber clad walls under reclaimed clay tile and slate pitched roofs, this property benefits from all modern insulation, glazing and heating methods and has been built and finished to the highest standard throughout.


The accommodation briefly comprises of a spacious open hall, 2 reception rooms, a large farmhouse kitchen-breakfast room with hand-made, shaker style kitchen units and granite counter tops, utility room and cloakroom WC on the ground floor. Exposed oak beams, hamstone features, bespoke solid oak doors and flagstone floors with underfloor heating extend through the majority of the downstairs accommodation.  An attractive oak staircase leads to the first floor gallery landing serving 4 double bedrooms with high vaulted ceilings and further exposed beams. The Master bedroom has a well-appointed en suite and French doors leading to an external viewing platform. There is also a large luxurious family bathroom on this floor.


This elevated property is accessible via its own private lane and is wonderfully secluded and completely enclosed by natural hedgerow and a large variety of mature trees including; beech, horse chestnuts, sycamores and ash to name a few. Nestling behind remote operated wooden gates, the driveway separates with the main fork leading to the house and large parking areas whilst a secondary gives vehicular access to garaging, stabling and extensive workshop with utility area. The house and gardens extend to approximately 1.3 acres and boast stunning views from Ham Hill in the east to the Quantocks in the west providing the house with a spectacular rural outlook from almost every aspect and every window. The gardens are extensive and extremely well maintained including; a variety of mature shrubs, a large wildlife pond, private sundeck, patio areas and raised vegetable plot.


This is a truly spectacular property, almost overwhelming with all it has to offer - from the thoughtfulness of the design to the level of craftsmanship, the quality of materials that have been used and the rare location itself. Viewing is absolutely essential to appreciate all there is to offer.
