A fantastic period residence situated in the heart of this desirable village. Additional two bedroom cottage and studio annexe. Outbuildings, extensive parking and attractive garden. No onward chain.
Iddesleigh House is an impressive and substantial family home, prominently situated in the desirable village of Middlezoy. Dating back to 1900, this charming property has been lovingly restored and refurbished by the current owners over the last 14 years. In addition to the main house, the property includes converted outbuildings featuring a two-bedroom extension from the attached barn and a studio with an ensuite bathroom, offering versatile living options and potential income opportunities. Notably, the property also includes a barn with potential for further development, subject to planning consents.
The main house exudes character, boasting flagstone floors, ornate fireplaces, Victorian-style radiators, original tiled floors, exposed floorboards, stained-glass sash window, and original servant bells. Modern comforts are seamlessly integrated, including renewable energy sources such as solar panels (with batteries) and an air source heat pump on the barn extension, enhancing both sustainability and efficiency.
The main house features beautifully presented accommodation, with a grand entrance porch, a welcoming reception hall with a staircase leading to the first floor, four reception rooms, and a well-appointed kitchen equipped with an electric Aga, built-in dishwasher, and electric oven. Additional highlights include a lobby with a large walk-in pantry, boot room, wet room, and stairs leading down to a converted basement, now a fantastic cinema room, additional storage, and a gym. On the first floor, a galleried landing provides access to five bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom with a five-piece suite, plus another bathroom with shower and twin basins. The expansive attic offers further potential for conversion, subject to relevant consents.
The recently converted two-bedroom barn extension (Cider Barn) is equally impressive, with both bedrooms featuring ensuite wet rooms. The first floor showcases an open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining room, all finished to an exceptionally high standard. Additionally, there is a detached studio flat with an open-plan kitchen/living/bedroom space and a separate shower room, ideal for guests.
Services include mains electricity, water, and drainage, with oil-fired central heating and solar panels with batteries connected to the property, further enhancing the home's eco-friendly credentials and reducing monthly service outgoings.
An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate this remarkable village residence, offering multi-generational living, income potential, and future development opportunities.
The property is positioned in the heart of the village of Middlezoy. The village enjoys a true sense of community and benefits from a fine village pub, historic church, village hall, green, village shop and post office. The Village provides a lovely combination of old and new, mingling period thatch cottages with sympathetically modern pocket developments. For those requiring a more comprehensive range of facilities, Bridgwater is approximately 6 miles distant with its pedestrian Fore Street and covered shopping precinct. Motorway access is gained at both Junctions 23 and 24 of the M5, whilst main line rail links can be found at both Bridgwater and Taunton. The village is equally well placed for access to the towns of Street and Glastonbury and the County Town of Taunton. Within the village is a primary school and a bus provides transport to Huish Episcopi Secondary School.
Outside, the property features a double-storey barn with outline planning permission for conversion into a dwelling, providing further development potential. There is also a substantial open store, a carport with an electric charging point, and a facilities room containing the hot water tank, solar battery, and manifold for the underfloor heating at the rear. The extensive courtyard offers parking for several vehicles, while the attractive gardens are mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by stone and block walls. A pretty side garden, with a timber pergola, a variety of shrubs and plants, and an amazing wisteria when in bloom, is partially enclosed with picket fencing, adding to the charm of the exterior. There is also an open barn, perfect for entertaining.
