Description:

Charming Grade II listed village house privately set among its beautiful gardens and grounds with rolling countryside views Description Charlton Horethorne House is an exceptionally handsome Grade II listed country house towards the northern edge of this sought after village. The house sits in a private position overlooking its stunning six acres of gardens and grounds as well as the rolling Somerset and Dorset countryside beyond. Built in the 17th century, with a major 19th century extension, the house is constructed of attractive local Hamstone with ashlar dressings. The roof is banded with fish scale tiles and large stone tiles make up the lowest courses. Boasting substantial windows with leaded lights set in stone mullions, the house, even on a dull day, is bathed in light especially as it faces south and most of the principal rooms and bedrooms have dual aspects. Along with a number of elegant period features, including panelled window seats and handsome chimneypieces, this delightful property is brimming with character. When the current owners purchased Charlton Horethorne House they undertook an extensive renovation, enhancing many of the building’s charming features whilst adapting the house to modern living, and have meticulously maintained the property since. All the main rooms benefit from good proportions making it perfect for entertaining. Combined with a spacious family kitchen, with four-oven AGA, stone flooring with under-floor heating, direct access to the garden via two sets of French doors and triple aspects, Charlton Horethorne House is also a charming family home. Arriving at a gated parking area, a garden path guides you through the walled garden to an attractive stone porch. An impressive ancient wooden front door leads you into an inviting drawing room where there is an easy flow of rooms through the dining room to the central. Still available at ListedBuy!
