Saltmoor House is a grand Grade II listed Georgian manor set on a very large plot in peaceful Burrowbridge. The main seven-bedroom house and a separate two-bedroom Mill Cottage sit within walled gardens, pastures and a courtyard of traditional outbuildings, offering a rare package for a household requiring substantial living space, stabling or home-business potential. The house retains strong period detail — high ceilings, cornicing, sash windows and flagstone floors — creating elegant reception rooms and characterful circulation spaces.
The estate is well suited to an extended family or buyers seeking a principal country house with ancillary accommodation. The courtyard and outbuildings provide flexible space: stables, garaging, office space and a six-bay Dutch barn are already in place. Parking is generous with an in-and-out carriage drive and secondary access to the courtyard. The south-facing terrace, walled garden and pasture give excellent outdoor privacy and expansive rural outlooks across the moors.
Important practical points are straightforward: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance and permissions; council tax is noted as quite expensive. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal only average, which may affect remote working unless upgraded. Flood risk is low and the property is freehold. Overall, this is a substantial, characterful country estate for buyers who value historic fabric, space and privacy and who accept listed-property constraints.
