Summary - The Rookery, Church Lane, Stanton Fitzwarren SN6 7SB
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious village home with large gardens, park views and permitted extension..
Overlooks Stanton Country Park and front orchard views
South-facing, private mature garden with summer house and vegetable beds
Large gated driveway plus powered detached garage with roller door
Extended kitchen/breakfast room, walk-in pantry, modern fittings
Two loft rooms added—flexible bedrooms, offices or hobby spaces
Planning permission granted for single-storey extension (Ref: S/HOU/24/0896/JAAB)
Shared drainage and shared entry lane; communal maintenance responsibility
Higher local crime figures and quite expensive council tax
Set behind double gates at the end of a private lane, this four-bedroom detached home occupies a generous plot overlooking Stanton Orchard and backing onto Stanton Country Park. The house combines period character — stone features and original kitchen garden retaining walls — with a recently refreshed interior, including an extended kitchen/breakfast room, solid wood floors and a versatile loft conversion providing two additional rooms.
The mature south-facing rear garden is a standout: private, landscaped with raised vegetable beds, rose borders, a summer house and multiple seating areas. Practical benefits include a large gated driveway, powered detached garage with electric roller door, plentiful storage and fast broadband suitable for home working. Planning permission is already granted for a single-storey extension (Ref: S/HOU/24/0896/JAAB), offering immediate scope to increase footprint.
Buyers should note material negatives: the property sits in an area recorded with higher local crime levels, council tax is described as quite expensive, and there is shared drainage and a shared entry lane which carry maintenance responsibilities. The property is newly renovated but still offers further scope to personalise, particularly if you wish to proceed with the approved extension.
This house will suit a family seeking village life with strong countryside access, commuters needing good broadband and road links, or buyers wanting a large plot with planning upside. Viewings will be most useful for those prioritising privacy, garden space and character, while accepting the noted village-level service and cost considerations.
