6 bed property for sale

Wells Road, Wedmore BS28

Perfectly positioned for London and South West buyers seeking a slower pace of life without sacrificing connectivity, Box Farm offers the rare opportunity to enjoy a private country estate with genuine flexibility, income potential and exceptional lifestyle appeal.

Hidden behind electric timber gates and approached via a sweeping driveway, this remarkable Somerset property unfolds into over 11 acres of beautifully enclosed grounds, rolling pasture, mature trees and established gardens. Children can roam freely, family and friends can stay in complete comfort, and weekends naturally become the kind people never want to leave.

At the heart of the estate sits the handsome 17th-century Grade II listed farmhouse; a characterful and substantial home filled with exposed beams, flagstones, inglenook fireplaces and vaulted ceilings, seamlessly balanced with practical family living and generous entertaining space. With over six bedrooms and multiple reception rooms, the house has been thoughtfully arranged to accommodate modern family life, long lunches, celebrations and multi-generational living alike.

Three separate cottages further elevate both the lifestyle and commercial possibilities. Ravenswood, a detached cottage with residential consent, sits independently within the grounds, while Mackays and Veritys have operated successfully as highly regarded holiday cottages, each with their own private outdoor space and established appeal for guests seeking luxury rural escapes.

Previously run as a successful holiday and events business, Box Farm is already perfectly configured for buyers looking to continue a hospitality venture, create a wellness or retreat destination, host exclusive gatherings, or simply enjoy the flexibility of supplementary income alongside an exceptional private home. The existing infrastructure, extensive parking, outbuildings and even a helicopter landing area create an estate equally suited to relaxed family life as it is to entertaining on a grand scale.

Yet despite its remarkable privacy and sense of escape, Box Farm remains superbly connected. The thriving village of Wedmore lies just two miles away and offers an enviable mix of independent shops, excellent pubs, restaurants and cafés, all wrapped within a strong and welcoming community. Wells, Bristol, Bath and the wider South West are all within easy reach, making the property equally appealing as a full-time residence or country retreat.

The area is well served by both state and independent schooling, including Wedmore First School, Hugh Sexey’s Middle School, Kings of Wessex Academy, Wells Cathedral School, Sidcot and Millfield.

Box Farm is far more than simply a beautiful home. It is a fully formed lifestyle estate with history, warmth, versatility and future potential woven into every part of it - ready to be enjoyed from day one.
