Summary - SHERFORD LODGE, 20 HAINES HILL TAUNTON TA1 4HW
6 bed 3 bath Detached
Large Victorian villa with coach house and mature private gardens.
Six-bedroom main house with original period features and high ceilings
Sherford Lodge is an early Victorian Italianate villa set on a very large, secluded plot in one of Taunton’s most sought-after addresses. The principal six-bedroom house retains many original features — high ceilings, fireplaces, cornices and sash windows — and includes a conservatory, cellar rooms and a practical kitchen/breakfast room with a four-oven AGA. Mature, timbered gardens, a gravelled drive and an outbuilding/former garage complete the setting.
The property is offered with an adjacent two-bedroom coach house (sold together at £1,500,000 or the main house alone at £1,250,000), creating flexible options for extended family use or rental income. Ample off-street parking, multiple reception rooms and substantial storage including cellars and a barn make the house highly adaptable for modern family living.
Buyers should note the house is Grade II listed; that status preserves character but will restrict alterations and can add cost and complexity to repairs. Council tax sits in a high band and the size and fabric of the building mean ongoing maintenance and sensitive restoration will be required. The property offers strong potential for buyers seeking a handsome period home with mature gardens rather than a turnkey modern conversion.
This home will suit an educated, family-focused buyer or those wanting an income opportunity from the coach house. For anyone who values period detail, generous internal space and private grounds, Sherford Lodge rewards careful stewardship with a rare combination of town convenience and garden seclusion.
