A handsome Victorian farmhouse set on about 2.2 acres on the edge of the Polden Hills, this substantial five-bedroom home combines generous period rooms with practical outbuildings. The house offers a self-contained two-bedroom annexe ideal for extended family or rental income, plus a heated swimming pool, paddocks and stables — a rare package for village living.
Inside, high ceilings, original fireplaces and wide rooms create a warm, characterful family home. The accommodation includes two principal reception rooms, conservatory, kitchen with oil-fired Aga, utility and useful storage. The annexe has its own entrance and provides flexible living independently of the main house.
The grounds are a major asset: gated driveway, large garage with workshop, kitchen garden, mature borders and level paddocks with loose boxes and tack room. The pool and terrace offer private outdoor entertaining space in summer, while the outbuildings suit equestrian or hobby use.
Practical considerations: the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler and the stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so energy and running costs are likely higher than modern homes. Broadband speeds are slow and council tax is described as expensive. Buyers should expect some updating and potential insulation or heating upgrades to improve efficiency.
This is a strong proposition for families wanting rural space and scope for multi-generational living, or purchasers seeking ancillary income from the annexe and small-scale equestrian facilities. Early viewing recommended to appreciate the scale and setting.
