Summary - GEMARE LODGE HOLFORD BRIDGWATER TA5 1DU
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious rural family home with paddock, stables and sweeping Quantock views.
Four bedrooms with three reception rooms and office space
Set on the edge of the Quantock Hills, this four-bedroom Arts & Crafts style lodge combines period charm with practical family and equestrian facilities. The house enjoys three reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen with Aga, principal bedroom with en-suite, and a versatile fourth bedroom ideal for a dressing room or home office. Large decked areas and French/bi-folding doors deliver panoramic countryside views and make outdoor entertaining easy.
Externally the property is well provisioned for horse owners or hobby farmers: a concrete yard, a four-stable block with tack room and store, plus a securely fenced paddock of approximately 0.7 acres. There is a gravelled forecourt, oak car port and parking for several vehicles, with a second drive giving direct paddock access.
Buyers should note some material negatives: the EPC rating is F and the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler with solid brick walls likely lacking modern insulation — improvements to energy efficiency will be needed. Broadband availability is recorded as slow locally, although the current vendor uses Starlink and there are two electric car charging points. Council Tax band E and the rural location mean some services and amenities are a drive away.
This home suits families who value countryside living, riders seeking immediate livery capacity, or buyers looking to improve energy performance and add value. The plot, facilities and separate parking provide scope for further equestrian use or garden enhancements, but expect typical upkeep for a period property on a large rural plot.
