Stowey Court is an exceptional Grade II listed Tudor manor set in about 7.53 acres of formal gardens, paddocks and carp ponds on the edge of Nether Stowey. The principal house provides up to ten bedrooms, six reception rooms and seven bathrooms across an expansive 9,429 sq ft, with notable period features including stone mullion windows, large fireplaces and double-height ceilings. Recent refurbishment has refreshed many interiors while retaining historic character.
The estate includes high-quality stabling, tack room and barn storage, multiple ornamental ponds, an early-Georgian orangery and substantial stone outbuildings, giving genuine equestrian and small-commercial event potential. Its layout and scale make it suitable as a private country residence or for conversion to a boutique hotel, wedding venue or multiple-occupancy scheme subject to permissions.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and create additional consent and maintenance obligations. The property occupies a large, historic site and will incur significant ongoing upkeep costs and quite expensive council tax. Broadband is average for the area despite excellent mobile signal.
For investors or those seeking a grand family seat, Stowey Court offers rare scale, documented history and immediate usability following recent renovations — balanced by the responsibilities of owning a listed country estate.
