Description

Tucked away within 2.9 acres of exquisitely landscaped and entirely private grounds, Courthayes is a rare jewel in the heart of South Somerset. Constructed circa 1840 from handsome hamstone, this distinguished residence has been thoughtfully and sympathetically restored, preserving its period elegance while subtly integrating contemporary comforts. Though unlisted, it is a home of undeniable architectural pedigree.

The estate is encircled by historic walled gardens, perfectly manicured lawns, productive kitchen gardens, tranquil ponds, and enchanting private woodland—creating an atmosphere of secluded serenity and timeless charm. To the rear, a collection of six traditional barn outbuildings, including a fully equipped workshop with a vehicle lift, offers exceptional versatility for those seeking creative or leisure pursuits, classic car storage, or even ancillary accommodation (subject to planning).

Inside, Courthayes is a celebration of heritage craftsmanship: original oak floorboards, a flagstone kitchen, and two elegant reception rooms, each with a wood-burning stove, speak to its storied past. Recent enhancements include bespoke cabinetry in the kitchen and contemporary bathrooms presenting an effortless fusion of period character and sophisticated modernity.

The loft, currently unused, presents an exciting canvas for further transformation—perfect for a spacious principal suite, home office, or study room for teenagers.

Discreetly positioned between the vibrant market town of Crewkerne and the regional hub of Yeovil, the property enjoys both tranquillity and convenience. Excellent amenities, acclaimed independent schools, and direct rail links to London Waterloo and the Jurassic Coast are all within easy reach. The celebrated town of Sherborne, renowned for its beautiful Abbey, charming boutiques, and historic school, lies just 10 miles to the east.

This highly desirable location is also moments from some of the South West’s most prestigious cultural and lifestyle destinations: from Hauser & Wirth Somerset in Bruton, to the award-winning estate The Newt in Somerset—a true haven for those with a passion for design, nature, and fine living.

Courthayes offers not just a home, but a lifestyle—rich in heritage, surrounded by natural beauty, and embedded in one of Somerset’s most sought-after enclaves.

About Moveli, London & Country

21 Ellis Street, London, SW1X 9AL

Having previously built a highly respected London-based high street estate agency from scratch, we know the value of having a great agent fighting your corner. We also saw first hand the problems with high street based estate agency - an emphasis on marketing over making investments to improve service, 'bad' estate agents hiding within ostensibly 'good' brands, and extortionate fees to name but a few - and how these can impact both homeowners and estate agents themselves.
