0 Bed House For Sale

Four Winds Cider Farm occupies just over 15 acres of beautiful countryside on the edge of East Lambrook, 2 miles from South Petherton. The owners converted an agricultural building into the house they have today (under Class Q) and the farm now offers a tranquil way of life in your own slice of English countryside.
The current owners produce their own cider (Flying Pig) and have an arrangement with a larger known cider producer to supply them with excess apples. Pigs, Sheep, Chickens, Geese, and Guineafowl call Four Winds home.

The House - The house was converted, using the original steel frame, from an existing agricultural building, and now provides a modern living space overlooking the orchards and the countryside beyond. There is scope to extend the house further subject to planning. The Siberian Larch cladding used has now weathered to a silver colour and is a nod to the trees surrounding.

To the right is the open plan living space with 2 sets of glass sliding doors leading out to a sun deck overlooking the orchard.
