8 bedroom house

Boasting excellent communication links, Easterlands has a detached lodge and cottage, with barns and a coach house, standing in mature parkland grounds. Within the grounds is a tennis court, swimming pool and former vineyard which could be reinstated and expanded. EPC: F. About 44.4 acres.

The sale of Easterlands provides the opportunity to acquire a significant seven bedroom country house in need of some refurbishment, set in an outstanding ringfenced park in a truly convenient location for many schools and businesses in the West Country.

The house is approached through a wide gated entrance, guarded by a three bedroom lodge cottage, down a long tree lined avenue affording tantalising glimpses of the house amongst the mature trees in the garden and park.

Also complementing the house is a stable courtyard with an old coach house, stables and garaging. A traditional walled garden is well stocked and there is a swimming pool complex and tennis court within easy reach of the house.

A two bedroom cottage and further barns can be accessed from a spur off the drive.

Within the grounds is a former vineyard which can be reinstated and indeed considerably enhanced as the land is highly suitable to this use.

Ideally located for rail and road communications, Easterlands is a well-balanced residential estate, with a substantial main house standing centrally within its land, surrounded by parkland grazing and belts of mature woodland, a lake and delightful gardens around the house.

From the top of the land there are views over the surrounding Taunton Vale, Blackdown Hills and Wellington Monument and down to the village with the tower of the village Church forming an attractive focal point.

The house lies to the east of the village of Sampford Arundel, near the market town of Wellington which provides everyday shops, banks, a doctor's surgery and schools. It is also home to a range of cultural, sporting and religious sites including the 15th century Church of St John the Baptist.
