17th‑century Grade II listed townhouse full of original features
Stockers House is an elegant Grade II listed 17th‑century townhouse in the heart of Somerton, offering abundant period character across three floors plus cellar. High ceilings, sash windows, stone fireplaces and exposed masonry create a distinctive, warm family home with a large conservatory overlooking a rare 0.4‑acre walled garden. The well‑kept kitchen (replaced 2019) and generous reception rooms suit family life and entertaining.
The rear plot includes a substantial two‑storey Blue Lias outbuilding with garage, store and a first‑floor loft studio (light, power, water), giving excellent potential for a home office, hobby studio or redevelopment subject to planning and listed‑building consents. The cellar has light, power and plumbing and can serve as utility space or further conversion potential.
Practical points: the property is Freehold but Grade II listed, which will limit alterations and may complicate redevelopment. The house is large (about 2,724 sq ft) with off‑road parking to the rear and plentiful on‑street parking nearby, but council tax sits in band F. Broadband speeds are average and the property sits in a quiet small‑town setting with low crime and excellent mobile signal.
This home will suit buyers seeking a substantial period house with extensive private gardens and outbuildings, who understand listed‑building responsibilities and appreciate the opportunity to adapt spaces (subject to consents). The combination of central Somerton location, generous internal space and rare town centre gardens makes this a distinctive family property.
