Description

Unexpectedly re-available due to a collapse further down the chain through no fault of the property.

Occupying an elevated position on the picturesque Limeburn Hill, this exceptional country residence seamlessly blends period character with contemporary luxury, while enjoying stunning lake and countryside views. The beautifully presented accommodation includes four bedrooms, three with en-suite rooms, and generous open-plan living spaces designed to maximise light, space, and the spectacular setting.

The property is set within approximately 5.5 acres of grounds, incorporating outbuildings and stables. The land is ideally suited to equestrian use and offers exciting potential for a variety of alternative uses, subject to the appropriate planning consents, creating a rare and versatile opportunity in this highly desirable location.

An additional 7 acres of land is available by separate negotiation.

About the Property.

Originally built circa 1860 and meticulously restored just seven years ago, The Coach House is an exceptional home that offers the perfect balance of historic character and modern sophistication, all set within approximately five and a half acres of manicured grounds and commanding panoramic views across the Chew Valley and Chew Valley Lake.

About the Inside.

Upon entering, you are immediately drawn into the heart of the home, which is a vast, open-plan kitchen and entertaining space designed for modern living and effortless hosting. Expansive glass doors and picture windows frame uninterrupted, 360-degree views of rolling countryside, flooding the space with natural light.

The bespoke kitchen features high-end fittings, a generous island, a separate pantry, and seamless flow into the dining and lounge areas. Exposed oak beams, a wood-burning stove, and direct access to the expansive lawns and south facing terraces create a warm and inviting environment, perfect for both intimate evenings and grand gatherings.

A secondary entrance leads to a substantial utility and boot room, a contemporary shower room, and a bright secondary reception space. Steps descend to a fully tanked cellar which is an ideal wine store or tasting room, adding another layer of charm and practicality to this distinguished home.

The first floor hosts four beautifully appointed bedrooms, three of which feature luxurious en-suites, blending comfort with elegance. A striking mezzanine study offers a serene workspace, with breathtaking views of Chew Valley Lake and views stretching across the valley.

Sustainability and comfort are at the heart of this home, with underfloor heating throughout, an air source heat pump, solar panels, and private compliant drainage ensuring modern efficiency without compromise.

About the Outside.

The Coach House is surrounded by approximately five and a half acres of idyllic grounds; this land has separate access directly onto Limeburn Hill.
The property benefits from a large driveway, a triple garage, and an impressive stable block with hay store and arena, catering perfectly to equestrian interests.

Additional Land.

Additional land of approximately 7 acres is also available by separate negotiation, offering even greater potential for those seeking a rural lifestyle in one of Somerset’s most sought-after locations. This additional land also has access directly onto Limeburn Hill, which could offer further income for the new owners.
