An Historic Somerset Farmhouse with Outstanding Potential, Stunning Rural Views and Over 7 Acres of Grounds.

Description
Rolstone Manor is an enchanting Somerset farmhouse set in approximately seven acres of gardens, orchard and paddock, with panoramic views across open countryside. Believed to be over four centuries old, this charming, unlisted home offers versatile accommodation with scope for modernisation ideal for those seeking a rural lifestyle without sacrificing space or potential.

Internally, the property features a central reception hallway and inner hall, running the full depth of the house. To one side, the traditional farmhouse kitchen is fitted with a range of units and leads to a cosy family room with an attractive fireplace and dual-aspect windows that bathe the space in afternoon sunlight. A separate laundry room, utility and large walk-in pantry provide highly practical ancillary space, perfect for country living.

The formal dining room is a highlight, with beautiful original panelled cupboards, a glazed display alcove, and an open fireplace, a room that oozes heritage and charm. The sitting room, measuring over 17 feet in length, is the heart of the home: A superb inglenook fireplace with a substantial wood-burning stove, exposed ceiling beams, and windows overlooking the garden and paddock.

Upstairs, five well-proportioned double bedrooms offer ample space for family or guests, served by two bathrooms. With generous proportions throughout, the layout provides a welcoming and functional home ready to be personalised further.

Externally, two adjoining stone-built barns offer clear potential for conversion to an annex, home office, studio, or fitness suite (subject to planning). Additionally, a detached two-storey coach house sits adjacent to the main residence, providing yet more development opportunities.

The outside space is a key feature of Rolstone Manor. A large lawned garden enjoys a delightful rural backdrop, while beyond lies a well-maintained paddock and a mature orchard, rich with local wildlife. With forecourt parking for numerous vehicles and easy access to nearby amenities, this is a rare and versatile opportunity in a picturesque countryside setting.
