This Grade II Listed family home is a remarkable investment opportunity situated in 6.5 acres of picturesque gardens and grounds, conveniently located within walking distance to the vibrant centre of a south Somerset village. With its generous four-bedroom layout and a rich history dating back to the early 1700s, this property exudes charm from its ancient architecture, featuring exposed cruck beams, flagstone flooring, and a grand inglenook fireplace. The house has served various purposes over the centuries, transitioning from a cross-hall yeoman's house to a working farm and even a village hotel, making it steeped in character. The ground floor boasts four reception rooms along with a kitchen featuring an Aga, while the first floor accommodates four or five bedrooms including an en-suite and a family bathroom.
The property presents significant redevelopment potential; previous planning consent was granted for extending several spacious outbuildings adjacent to the main house, which could be reinstated. Additionally, the surrounding grounds offer informal gardens with sloping lawns leading down to woodland areas, fruit trees, and a large pond - presenting further landscape enhancement opportunities. Located near local amenities such as shops and schools within a thriving community and easy access to the beautiful Jurassic Coast, this home is ideal for those looking to restore or renovate while enjoying countryside living.
