Description:

Charming Grade II listed country house with extensive ancillary and secondary accommodation, standing in mature gardens and grounds. Description East Stoke House is a most handsome listed Grade II property between the villages of Stoke Sub Hamdon and Montacute, with spectacular views towards the Quantocks. Dating back to the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the house is built from local Hamstone and, with an array of characterful period features, this house has a rare elegance and is brimming with character. The immediate approach is impressive, with a parkland-esque setting created largely by the wonderful specimen trees. In keeping with its era, all the rooms benefit from high ceilings, intricate cornicing and lovely proportions, making it perfect for entertaining. The large sash windows mean that even on a dull day the house is bathed in natural light. The principal reception rooms are of particular note with both the dining room and drawing room having beautiful bay windows looking out over the front lawn. Also on the ground floor is a spacious reception hall, sitting room with open fireplace, kitchen, larder, utility and cloakroom. The imposing ceiling above the main staircase features intricate cornicing and roof lantern which illuminates a wide central staircase leading to the first floor. A well-proportioned principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room overlooks the garden to the west. There are five further bedrooms, with their own en suite or dedicated bath/shower room. The east wing of the ground floor is the oldest part of the house and is currently separate from the principal accommodation. It comprises the former kitchen, scullery, pantry, flower pantry, games room and sitting room; these rooms are currently in need of renovation. Separately, there is an adjoining studio/home office with kitchenette and shower. Above the east wing on the first floor is "Granny's flat", which has 2 bedrooms, 2 shower rooms,.
