Summary - OLD FORD HOUSE CHURCH STREET BLACKFORD WEDMORE BS28 4NR
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Versatile family home near top-rated schools and countryside trails.
Bright dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast with integrated appliances
Set in the peaceful hamlet of Blackford, this extended detached barn conversion blends period stone character with contemporary styling. The house offers versatile accommodation across two floors — four well-proportioned bedrooms (two per floor), a bright dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room with integrated appliances, and a cosy sitting room for everyday family life.
Practical features suit family living: a ground-floor bedroom with its own private entrance could serve as a home office, guest room or annexe, while a separate utility leads to a full-length loft for easy storage. The low-maintenance, west-facing courtyard garden has raised beds and space for outdoor dining; gated off-street parking, a larger-than-average single garage with shelving and extra external storage add useful capacity.
The house benefits from double glazing throughout, a recently replaced oil tank and oil-fired central heating via boiler and radiators. It sits within easy reach of highly regarded local schools (Wedmore First School Academy, Hugh Sexey CE Middle School and Kings of Wessex Academy catchment), countryside walks and cycle routes — appealing for families seeking rural lifestyle with good schooling.
Notable practical points: the property is an older stone-built home (pre-1900) and the walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs. The EPC is listed as D and council tax band E is applicable. Broadband speeds are fast and the area is very affluent with low crime, but heating relies on oil rather than mains gas, an important consideration for ongoing costs.
