## Description

A beautiful five-bedroom mid-15th century Grade II listed home just off of the village green in the centre of High Ham. The substantial main house complemented by a beautifully appointed self-contained annexe and a magnificent traditional stone barn extending to over 50 feet in length.

Dating back to the mid-15th century, Hillborne is a handsome Grade II listed village house constructed of attractive Lias stone beneath a tiled roof. Of particular note is the exceptional amount and versatility of accommodation on offer, with the substantial five-bedroom main house complemented by a beautifully appointed self-contained annexe and a magnificent traditional stone barn extending to over 50 feet in length.
Having evolved over the centuries, the main house today provides beautifully balanced family accommodation, rich in original features and architectural interest. The front door opens into a welcoming hallway with flagstone flooring, setting the tone for the character found throughout. The dual aspect sitting room is centred around an impressive open fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove, whilst exposed beams and deep window seats create an atmosphere entirely befitting a house of this age.
The adjoining dining room is equally inviting, with a further open fireplace beneath a handsome bressummer beam, exposed timbers and windows to two elevations. Some of the beams are understood to have originated from the local church during the Reformation, providing a fascinating connection with the history of the village. A charming snug, again with a wood-burning stove, provides an additional and more intimate reception room.

Hillborne is situatied on the village green within sought after High Ham. The house is within 50m of the grade 1 listed church built in 1474, and the area also features: its renowned primary school, inn, village hall, and nearby thatched windmill in the ownership of the National Trust. The village is readily accessible, just three miles from the bustling market town of Langport which offers good day-to-day amenities, including supermarket, shops, banking and post office facilities, doctors' and dentists’ surgeries, pubs, garages and fuel station, churches, library, primary school, and Huish Episcopi Academy with adjoining Sports Centre boasting facilities for all ages.

The larger regional centres of Yeovil, Bridgwater, and Street are all within reasonable driving distance, each offering extensive recreation, shopping, leisure, business, and scholastic facilities, including numerous highly regarded private schools. The County Town of Taunton lies 15 miles to the West and the cities of Bristol, Bath, and Exeter are all c. 1 hour distant.
There are main line rail links at Taunton and Castle Cary (Paddington), and Yeovil (Waterloo), whilst the M5 can be accessed at J25 Taunton and J23 Bridgwater (10 miles). The A303 linking with the M3 is around eight miles distant and both Bristol and Exeter airports are less than an hours’ drive.

The gardens and outbuildings considerably enhance the overall offering at Hillborne, providing not only an enchanting setting but a further wealth of useful and potentially adaptable space.
A gravelled driveway extends past the house and annexe to a magnificent traditional stone barn extending to over 50 feet in length, together with additional stores. A particularly impressive building in its own right, the barn currently provides extensive workshop and storage space but offers exciting potential for a variety of alternative uses. Subject to any necessary planning consents, it could lend itself to an entertaining barn, studio, substantial home office, hobby space or potentially further accommodation.
Immediately adjoining the kitchen, a sheltered stone terrace provides a wonderfully private setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, overlooking gardens that have been lovingly cultivated over many years. Sweeping lawns are complemented by mature shrubs and specimen trees, together with a productive vegetable garden, greenhouse and chicken run. A well with functioning modern pump and a rainwater storage system provide useful year-round watering, whilst a wildlife pond attracts birds and other visiting wildlife.
To the front, a charming cottage garden welcomes visitors via a lavender-lined pathway. Established planting includes fig, apple and pear trees, an exceptional red mulberry and young plum trees. hollyhocks, verbena and magnificent wisteria clothe the annexe, whilst a mature eating grape vine grows against the barn, completing a quintessentially English setting around this remarkable and exceptionally versatile village home.
