Shermans House presents a distinctive opportunity in the sought-after market town of Wotton-under-Edge. This Grade II listed property, steeped in history and character, served originally as a Co-Operative store and former bakery. Occupying a central yet private location, it has been cherished by its current owners for 24 years and now awaits its next stewards.
Constructed in 1800, the house showcases original features such as period parquet flooring, wooden panelling, sash windows, and charming tiled floors that reflect its storied past. The accommodation spans four levels, starting at the ground floor with a welcoming living room featuring a log-burning stove, alongside a generous boot room and laundry area that leads to an inner courtyard and garage/workshop space.
The first floor houses impressive drawing rooms adorned with original bar windows, complemented by a kitchen/diner ideal for family gatherings. An adjacent study and cloakroom add to the functionality of this level. Ascending to the second floor reveals four spacious double bedrooms with delightful views and a modern family bathroom. The master bedroom on the third floor introduces vaulted ceilings and access to expansive unconverted attic rooms — perfect for further development.
A notable feature is the large adjoining garage, previously a bakery, offering significant potential for conversion into an independent dwelling or annex (subject to planning permissions). Outside, there is ample parking along with multiple outdoor areas designed for privacy and enjoyment under the sun.
Wotton-under-Edge boasts a vibrant high street filled with independent shops, restaurants, schools, and recreational amenities. Commuters will appreciate easy access to major motorways connecting to Bristol and London. This property not only represents historical charm but also presents numerous avenues for renovation or investment.
