Summary - Aisholt, Bridgwater TA5 1AR
Over 5,200 sq ft across three floors and eight bedrooms
A rare, substantial Grade II listed rectory set in 15.5 acres with its own lake and direct outriding into the Quantock Hills AONB. The house has been sympathetically restored to provide over 5,200 sq ft across three floors, combining period features—flagstone and timber floors, cast-iron fireplaces and window seats—with modern comforts such as underfloor heating and a four‑oven Aga. Former stables have approved planning for ancillary conversion and a converted stone annexe provides flexible accommodation.
This is a property for buyers seeking seclusion, equestrian use or a family home with extensive grounds. Practical services are rural: private spring water, private drainage (Klargester), mains electricity and oil-fired heating. Broadband via Starlink and generally good mobile coverage (limited with Three) support rural living. The farmland is well managed for grazing with useful modern and traditional outbuildings for machinery, fodder and tack.
Important drawbacks are factual: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance; EPC rating is F; heating runs on oil; private water and drainage require ongoing management. Japanese knotweed was found and treated (reported as not close to the house). The location is remote—excellent for privacy but less convenient for daily services; council tax is high (Band G).
