Summary - Wellow Drove, West Wellow, Romsey, SO51 SO51 6DU
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Sprawling six-acre grounds with pool, guest suites and studio ideal for family living.
Grade II listed thatched house dating from 1690
Wellow Mead is a rare Grade II listed thatched house set in approximately six acres of formal gardens, meadows and paddocks. The principal house dates from 1690 and offers generous, characterful living spaces, an indoor swimming pool and striking oak windows that flood the sitting room with light. Three independent detached guest suites and a separate studio expand the accommodation and create clear potential for multi‑generational living or income (subject to planning and listed‑building consent).
The grounds approach the house via a long tree‑lined drive and include established, biodiverse gardens with secluded patios and two large meadows suitable for equestrian use or further cultivation. Parking and a garage are provided on‑site; mobile signal is excellent and the property has no flood risk.
Buyers should note the Grade II listing and thatched roof: any alteration, change of use of the ancillary buildings, or significant repair work will require listed‑building consent and specialist maintenance. The indoor pool and multiple detached outbuildings will add ongoing maintenance and running costs. Broadband speeds are very slow locally and council tax is described as quite expensive.
This estate will suit a family seeking a characterful country home with space for guests and hobbies, or buyers able to manage a renovation/heritage maintenance programme and navigate planning consents to realise the site’s income potential.
