Location
Canal Farm occupies the site of the former lock keeper's cottage in the small village of Thornfalcon. Set at the end of a long private drive on elevated ground, it enjoys sweeping countryside views towards the Quantock Hills and the Mendips.
Despite its secluded setting, the property is well connected, with Taunton, the county town of Somerset and home to the County Cricket Ground, about five miles away, where there is also a mainline train station, with regular services to London Paddington in under two hours.
The area is also renowned for its excellent schooling, with Taunton School, King's and Queen's Colleges, King's Hall and Richard Huish Sixth Form College all in the Taunton area. Other notable independent schools, include Blundell's at Tiverton, Wellington School, Sherborne, Millfield, Hazlegrove and Exeter School.
West Somerset offers outstanding landscapes, including the Quantock, Brendon and Blackdown Hills—ideal for walking, riding and outdoor pursuits, whilst also having excellent communication links to the M5 motorway network and A303.
Description
A truly exceptional contemporary Eco home, Canal Farm combines architectural finesse with flexible, beautifully appointed accommodation, set in an elevated and wonderfully private position with far-reaching views. Taking its name from the former Taunton–Chard Canal, the property occupies a site once home to the historic lockkeeper's cottage, part of the last commercial canal to open in England in 1842. The original cottage and 16 surrounding acres were acquired by the present owners in 2011 and subsequently redeveloped to create this remarkable home, completed in 2016.
Designed by an architect and constructed with meticulous attention to detail, the house offers light, free flowing and highly versatile living space. A striking galleried reception hall with a walnut and ash staircase sets the tone, opening to an inner hallway with a fully tiled bathroom, a media/playroom, two generous studies with fitted shelving, and a superb dual aspect drawing room with French doors to the terrace.
The impressive open plan dining and sitting area features full height bifold doors to two sides, creating seamless indoor/outdoor living. It flows into a magnificent contemporary kitchen fitted with high gloss cabinetry, granite worktops, a large central island and an extensive suite of Miele appliances, as well as two wine coolers. Beyond is a breakfast area and an additional sitting space with bespoke cabinetry. A secondary kitchen/utility and a plant/boot room, with heat pump boilers, hot water cylinders and water harvesting system—complete the ground floor.
The first floor landing is an attractive space in its own right, opening onto a broad roof terrace with glass balustrading and outstanding views, creating an ideal entertaining area. The principal bedroom suite features fitted wardrobes, French doors to a Juliette balcony, and a luxurious bathroom with freestanding bath, walk-in shower and twin basins.
A further bedroom with terrace access and en suite completes this wing. A separate landing leads to three additional en suite bedrooms, including a generous guest suite with French windows and a fitted dressing room. Ample storage is provided throughout, including discreet attic cupboards.
The approach to Canal Farm is along a quiet country lane, and driveway opening to sweeping lawns punctuated by ornamental trees. To the south, a deep paved terrace overlooks a wildlife pond, mixed borders and natural hedging, while the drive curves to the rear to provide extensive gravelled parking, decked seating areas and further lawned gardens with apple, walnut, medlar, pear and plum trees, as well as glimpses of the village church. A well-planned kitchen garden features raised beds, a 20' x 10' greenhouse and multiple compost bays.
To the east lie two substantial multipurpose barns offering excellent potential for equestrian or livestock use. The smaller barn includes three loose boxes and secure garaging suitable for a horsebox or trailer, while the larger provides a vast storage space with an electronic roller door, fitted cupboards, gardener's cloakroom, workshop and an adjoining stock barn opening to the paddock.
The land comprises fenced paddocks and enclosures, including two northern pastures, and a larger field extending to the western boundary. In all, the gardens and grounds extend to about 16.43 acres.
