This elegant Grade II listed Georgian home, dating from the early 1800s, forms part of a historic farming landscape in the sought-after village of Faulkland. Built of ashlar stone beneath a slate roof, the property displays a beautifully proportioned façade overlooking a private walled front garden, complete with a gentle running fountain and enclosed by mature hedging. Owned for nearly five years by the current occupants the house offers light-filled interiors with high ceilings, generous room sizes and far-reaching views, including glimpses of the Westbury White Horse.

Arranged over three floors, the layout includes a kitchen, dining room and reception room on the ground floor, with four double bedrooms set across the upper levels. The dining room is a particular highlight, with flagstone floors, large windows and a wonderful sense of space. Recent improvements include repairs to the flagstone flooring, replastering of fireplaces, a new living room floor, updated electrics, a new oil boiler, new carpets on the top floor and the addition of a shower and new flue for a wood burner.

Outside, the gardens wrap around the house, offering a ‘secret garden’ feel to the front and open countryside views beyond, with planting including fig, mulberry, gooseberry, jasmine and clematis. Private gated off-street parking for two to three cars adds a practical and highly desirable convenience, completing this well-balanced and attractively situated home. The surrounding area offers exceptional walking, with footpaths, bridleways, a nearby bluebell wood and even an ancient long barrow within easy reach.

The area is rich with country pubs, including Tuckers Grave, The Talbot Inn and The George at Norton St Philip, and popular spots such as Babington House, Somerset Lavender with it's new farm shop and local cafés.

‘It’s a lovely home set in a peaceful village yet well-connected to Bath, Frome and excellent transport links.’

‘There’s a wonderful sense of community here that is friendly and supportive.’

‘We love the incredible walks in every direction, from the bluebell wood nearby to the rolling Somerset countryside.’

‘Local spots like The George Inn, Tuckers Grave pub and great local primary schools make this a really an ideal spot to live.’

‘We’ll miss the feeling of the house most – its light, character and the way it sits softly within the landscape.’
