About this property

● Spacious Detached Four-Bedroom Bungalow with Additional One-Bedroom Annexe

● Good Range of Outbuildings, Barn and Stables

● Herb-Rich Meadows, Mature Hedgerows and Veteran Boundary Trees

● Two Young Orchards with a Variety of Fruit Trees

● Approx. 9.8 Acres of Sympathetically Managed Pasture, Gardens and Wildlife Habitats

● Beautiful Setting with Glorious Countryside Views

A spacious five-bedroom home, with flexible annexe accommodation, set in approximately 9.8 acres of south-facing, well-draining land with species-rich pasture, wildlife-friendly hedgerows and orchards, outbuildings and equestrian facilities, all surrounded by the rolling countryside of South Somerset.

Hengrove Lodge is understood to date back to the early 1960’s and has been subsequently extended and refurbished more recently. It provides a fabulous family home offering flexible accommodation that can either be used as a singular dwelling, or as is currently the case, divided to provide a self-contained annexe. The excellent range of outbuildings and stables are ideal for smallholding or equestrian use and the entire property has been carefully managed by its current owners with a particular emphasis on wildlife, biodiversity and the sympathetic stewardship of the countryside. Rather than being intensively managed, the land has been nurtured to encourage a rich mosaic of habitats while remaining practical and productive. Established grazing, traditional hay-making and areas of rough grassland demonstrate how horses, agricultural use and nature conservation can comfortably coexist.

The property is situated in a particularly attractive setting, surrounded by glorious rolling countryside, near the villages of Wadeford and Combe St Nicholas, just to the north of Chard which provides a good range of local amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, cafes, restaurants, healthcare services, leisure facilities, and both primary and secondary schooling. The popular market town of Axminster with its mainline railway station providing services to Exeter and London Waterloo is approx. eight miles, and the World Heritage Jurassic Coast is around thirty minutes' drive offering access to the coastal resorts of Lyme Regis and Charmouth.

The area offers a wonderful range of walking routes, and for the equestrian enthusiast the location is ideal, providing access to a wealth of hacking across peaceful rural lanes and the surrounding countryside. The rolling landscape of South Somerset and the nearby Blackdown Hills offers varied riding terrain with numerous bridleways and country routes available.
