Set high on an elevated 1.5-acre plot with panoramic Mendip views, this converted stables offers spacious family living across two generous wings. The house has five bedrooms, three bathrooms and versatile reception rooms arranged over a multi‑storey layout, combining modern farmhouse character with high-quality materials such as oak, terrazzo and Richlite.

Practical features include a double garage, ample parking, a large barn/outbuilding, utility room and photovoltaic panels paired with an air‑source heat pump to reduce running costs.
Outdoor space is exceptional for the area — courtyard gardens, fruit trees, scented borders and a paddock with a stream provide privacy and scope for gardening or small‑holding hobbies. Wells is a ten-minute drive, so local schools and amenities are easily accessible while the property remains quietly rural.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the house sits in an isolated hamlet setting requiring private transport, the plot is large and will need ongoing upkeep, council tax is above average (Band E) and the property’s main fuel is electricity (unspecified tariff). Overall, it suits a family seeking roomy, characterful accommodation with countryside views and strong outdoor potential.
