Summary - Hill House, West Horrington, WELLS BA5 3ED
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Secluded contemporary five-bedroom property with annexe, two acres and sweeping Mendip views.
Impressive 56 ft open-plan kitchen/living area with panoramic countryside views
Set on about two acres and backing onto the Mendip Hills AONB, this striking contemporary stone residence offers expansive panoramic views across Somerset to the Tor. The property’s 4,400 sq ft layout centres on a vast 56 ft open-plan living/kitchen area with floor-to-ceiling glazing and a wide terrace, designed to make the most of the elevated position. An attached double garage, gated driveway and two EV charging points add practical modern convenience.
A detached two-storey annexe/studio, three additional outbuildings and a substantial greenhouse provide flexible space for guests, home working or potential rental income. The main house benefits from an air-source heat pump, underfloor heating to most areas and low-running-cost design choices; the annexe uses electric heating. The principal suite has vaulted glazing and a dressing area, and there is scope to convert the cold room or outbuildings subject to consent.
Buyers should note a few material points: broadband speeds are very slow, and some original stone walls were built without modern cavity insulation (assumed), which may mean further insulation or retrofit works for optimal efficiency. The property is listed with Council Tax Band F and is a substantial, older building (pre-1900) so ongoing maintenance should be anticipated. Overall, this is a private, rural family home with significant lifestyle appeal and practical outbuildings for versatile use.
