Description

This remarkable Grade II listed property features a spacious main house alongside two adjoining two-bedroom cottages, making it an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled in the tranquil village of Stawell on the southern slopes of the Polden Hills, the property encompasses a generous footprint and presents numerous possibilities for customization. The principal residence boasts nine bedrooms, including two with en-suite facilities, along with a family bathroom. The interior is rich in character, featuring high ceilings, original architectural details like oak parquet flooring, flagstone tiles, and stunning fireplaces that offer a glimpse into its historical charm. The living spaces include a grand entrance hall, multiple reception areas such as a drawing room and dining room, as well as a kitchen diner equipped with essential amenities. A conservatory provides additional versatile space to enjoy views of the private gardens. The two attached cottages enhance the investment potential of this property. Currently used by the owners as office space, both could serve as ancillary accommodation for family members or generate rental income. Each cottage comes with two bedrooms and living areas that maintain their charming character through exposed stonework and beams. Outside, the mature gardens extend over approximately 0.8 acres, offering privacy and scope for landscaping or further development. With ample outdoor amenities including seating areas and established plantings, these gardens provide an inviting backdrop for relaxation or entertaining guests. The property's location offers both peace and accessibility; while set within a quiet village community marked by active local life—complete with a church and village hall—it also benefits from proximity to major routes such as the M5 motorway. Nearby towns provide diverse cultural and commercial amenities while maintaining the allure of Somerset's countryside. Considering its history and architectural significance coupled with modern-day utility through its additional cottages and expansive grounds, this property presents an exciting canvas for those looking to invest or renovate in a desirable location.
