We are thrilled to offer this stunning Somerset Longhouse to the market.
Situated in the sought after village of East Chinnock, we proceed down the imposing driveway and are met by the ornamental gardens and stunning façade of the Grade II Listed Fordhay House. One of the many joys of a property of this type is the versatility the space provides. The rooms can be configured to accommodate a family in a multitude of different ways however the current configuration is as follows. Underneath the majestic wisteria we pass through the front door into the welcoming entrance hall, to our left is the formal sitting room with log burner and to our right is the dining room. From the entrance hall straight ahead takes us to the galley style kitchen which houses a breakfast room at one end and a utility and W/C at the other. The ground floor comes to a close via another large, bright reception room and secluded study. There is a choice of two flights of stairs which take us to the top floor upon which we find four generous double bedrooms, one of which being en suite and a very generous family bathroom.
In addition to the main house, the property further benefits from a vast barn. The barn is in the very late stages of being converted into an annex space on the first floor with an open plan kitchen living space, family bathroom and bright double bedroom. The Ground Floor is divided into two and currently used as a studio and workshop. The barn offers a plethora of opportunity however with numerous configurations available subject to the usual planning and listing consents.
Fordhay House is set over just under three quarters of an acre of gardens, the lawns are plentiful and highlights include multiple sitting areas, a vast rear patio, a wishing well, a grand greenhouse and off street parking for several cars.
N.B. "Annex" is still subject to building regs approval
