Summary - OLD HARP HOUSE OVER STRATTON SOUTH PETHERTON TA13 5LB
4 bed 4 bath Detached
Characterful 4-bed family home with geothermal heating and almost an acre of private grounds.
Grade II listed — sympathetic, newly renovated but restrictions apply
An attractively renovated Grade II listed farmhouse, Old Harp House blends authentic 17th‑century character with modern, energy-efficient systems. Sympathetic improvements include a geothermal heating and hot‑water system, ground‑floor underfloor heating and modern ventilation, giving a rare combination of heritage and low‑running costs. The house offers generous family living with four double bedrooms, each with an en suite, plus flexible outbuilding space ideal for a home office, hobby room or potential annexe.
Set in highly private, mature grounds of 0.89 acres, the garden and terraces suit family life and outdoor entertaining. South‑facing lawns, a paved terrace, pizza oven and fruit trees create useful, sheltered outdoor rooms. Off‑street parking and a wide gravel driveway provide easy turning; previous discussions with planners indicate a garage application on site would likely be acceptable.
There are practical points buyers should note. The property’s Grade II listed status means alterations are restricted and will require listed‑building consent; this may complicate future works. Vendors believe there is gas to the property but it is not connected, so buyers should verify services. Council Tax is Band G, so running costs for council tax are higher than average.
Located in the popular village of Over Stratton, the house is within 1.5 miles of South Petherton’s strong schools, shops and recreational facilities, while rural footpaths, local eateries and good broadband make it well suited to family life and home working. For purchasers seeking character, space and modern efficiencies in an accessible village setting, this property provides a rare package, provided they accept the limitations of listed‑building ownership.
