A FARMHOUSE and outbuildings on the edge of the Quantock Hills – with permission to convert them into homes – has gone up for sale.

Somerset property firm Greenslade Taylor Hunt (GTH) is marketing Townsend Farm, in East Quantoxhead, with a guide price of £750,000.

The firm said the 5.5-acre site was an “exceptional renovation, conversion and development opportunity in a stunning rural position”.

Just off the A39, the farm site is near Kilve, and boasts a period five-bedroom farmhouse built using traditional stone, with a rendered white façade.

“Detailed planning permission allows for the conversion of seven farm buildings on the site to create a mix of open market characterful homes offering one, two and three-bedroom accommodation,” GTH said.
