Full Description: A remarkable property of circa 10 Acres with spectacular views, in a notable setting. With a former quarry transformed into a large level sheltered paddock and a successful luxury small glamping site. Recently built with the beautiful stone from the quarry, a three-storey family house that has commanding views as far as the Mendips. <br /> <br />When we first spoke to one of the current owners of Grove Farm Quarry, also the person that dreamt up Hadspen Glamping, even for a seasoned Estate Agent of over 30 years selling some fine properties from London to the West Country, it was an interesting call... <br /> <br />The history and how they had developed this wonderful pocket of Somerset from a working quarry, into a family home with large paddock along with acquiring parcels of neighbouring land which took the grounds up to circa 10 acres, including a holiday destination of note and all across the road from the renowned 'The Newt'. <br /> <br />It was with a degree of professional excitement that I drove through the entrance and down the drive, sweeping around the house and past the transformed quarry. What lay ahead encouraged me to pass by the parking area and into the farmyard to look down the valley and onwards toward the Mendips, picked out by the sun's rays in the far distance. Stepping out of the car it was impossible not to stand motionless and take it all in. <br /> <br />What followed was a thoroughly enjoyable tour of all the parts that are indeed interesting and could easily be imagined as a setting for something on television. Views that will not be taken for granted. During three visits the views changed from leafy trees and lush valleys, then shrouded in mist, followed by autumnal colours. <br /> <br />After decades of working the quarry, getting permission to build a family home with the striking stone they excavated themselves, developing the award winning glamping site that has permission to grow and developing the quarry into a large sheltered paddock, the time has come for the current owners to have a change and let someone else decide what to do with all there is. The house and grounds have huge scope and potential for countless uses, and those views will enhance anything anyone chooses to do. <br /> <br />* Tenure: Freehold <br />* Council Tax Band: E (Somerset Council) <br />* EPC: C <br />* Utilities and Similar: Mains electricity, oil, private water supply, septic tank <br />* Main Heating: Boiler and radiators, oil
