Spacious Grade II country home with heated pool and large walled gardens.
Approximately 3,700 sq ft of flexible period accommodation
A striking 18th-century coach house set in a quiet Somerset village, North Stables combines generous living space with period character and practical modern upgrades. Approaching 3,700 sq ft, the house offers four double bedrooms, four bath/shower rooms, and large reception rooms ideal for family life and entertaining. The open-plan kitchen/family room and vaulted dining hall are standout spaces with exposed beams, flagstone and oak floors, and a warm inglenook fireplace.
Set within c.0.64 acres of mature, walled gardens, the plot includes a 32' x 16' heated pool, private Mediterranean-style courtyard, studio/workshop, pool room with kitchenette, and a detached double garage. A sweeping gravel driveway gives ample parking. The property sits in a rural, affluent village with easy access to Millfield School (approx. 10 minutes) and Castle Cary station (approx. 15 minutes).
Important practical points are clear: the house is Grade II listed, which preserves character but will restrict external and structural alterations. Heating is oil-fired (running costs higher than mains gas), and the property uses a cesspit system (recently replaced in 2021). The pool and substantial grounds will require ongoing maintenance. Council Tax is Band G and should be factored into running costs.
This is a desirable family home for buyers who value historic charm, generous indoor/outdoor entertaining space and countryside privacy, and who are comfortable with listed-building responsibilities and the ongoing costs of oil heating and pool upkeep.
