Planning Permission was originally granted on 20th March 2015 under Application No: 2015/0203/FUL to alter and convert two existing outbuildings and construct a link building to create a single dwelling house. This permission was subsequently varied on 13th August 2021 under Application No: 2021/1494/VRC and the approved dwelling will have a large open-plan kitchen / family room with two en-suite bedrooms, a separate cloakroom and an adjoining workshop. Further information including plans and all supporting documentation can be viewed on the planning pages of Mendip District Council’s website.

The current owners have lived on the site for around twenty years in a residential static caravan which was granted a Certificate of Lawfulness of Existing Use as a dwelling house on 13th December 2025.

The property is set in a lovely secluded and sheltered position, well away from the road, a short distance from the village of Easton which has a garage, village shop, church and junior school. Wider ranges of amenities are provided by the Cathedral City of Wells and there is a local bus service between Wells, Cheddar and Weston Super-Mare.

Residence

The Residential Static Caravan is set to the right of the drive providing two bedrooms, shower room, kitchen and lounge with services connected.

Land & Buildings

Approached off the A371 between Wells and Cheddar, via a wide-splayed concrete entrance with recessed double gates, flanked by post and rail fencing, leading on to a hard-surfaced, private driveway which extends along the eastern boundary of the property for about 200 yards.

There are ample parking and turning areas with space for numerous vehicles and there are a number of storage sheds and outhouses.

To the left of the drive is an attractive Summerhouse fronting on to a gravelled seating area overlooking the main outbuildings which have permission for conversion.

The rest of the land comprises well established pasture, enclosed with stock fencing, on a gently-sloping east-facing aspect.

There is a gated access onto an adjoining trackway known locally as ‘The Strawberry Line’ which is popular for dog walking and horse riding.

In All Approx. 2.2 Acres (About 0.9 Hectares)

  • Dear Rural Scene family Well what can I say - we did it or rather you did! It's been a roller coaster of 3 years which I could write a book about. We knew from Abi's first visit and our contact with you all that we had chosen the right agents - you proved to be the best experience possible when going through this life changing major event. You were all so very professional, approachable and understanding. We really owe you a huge thank you for all your hard work and effort, and have to give a special thank you to Richard - he kept me busy with viewings, kept me positive when yet another buyer backed out and things looked grim and - he also kept me sane!! We are now happily settled in our new home and don't look back. It all worked out for the best in ...

  • I just wanted to say such a big thank you to all the team at Rural Scene for all the work you have done for us over the past few months. I’ve had so much confidence in your advice and everything you and the team have done. You have made it pretty much a stress free experience for us, and at just over 4 months from instruction to exchange, an amazing outcome. Thank you all so much.

  • Dear Edward Thank you, Richard and all the team for all the amazing help and support to get the sale over the line. Both yourself and Richard provided invaluable advice when we were making difficult decisions, we really appreciated it! And all the support through the super stressful patch earlier this week! We'll definitely recommend you to anyone selling a similar type of property.
