Worlebury Hill Road, Weston-super-Mare, North Somerset, BS22

Panoramic Views, Unmatched Space & Limitless Potential , a rare Opportunity to Own an impressive private estate in a truly extraordinary hilltop setting.

Description

A rare offering on Worlebury Hill, The Observatory is a unique and expansive estate with a rich history and stunning coastal views across the Somerset coastline and countryside. Set in a commanding elevated position, the estate comprises a spacious six bedroom period residence, three independent apartments, extensive outbuildings, formal gardens, leisure facilities, and equestrian infrastructure, making it one of the most versatile and attractive homes in the region. It is certainly feasible to remodel the property to incorporate the apartments into the main dwelling to significantly increase the footprint of the principal house if so desired.

Main Residence
Individual and full of character, the main home offers spacious and beautifully proportioned living across two floors. A welcoming hallway leads into grand reception rooms with high ceilings, feature fireplace, and large sash-style windows that flood the space with natural light.

The layout is flexible, currently configured as four double bedrooms with the potential to reconfigure to six bedrooms with minimal adjustment. A generous country-style kitchen is the heart of the home, perfect for both family life and entertaining. There’s also a formal dining room overlooking the gardens and a stylish sitting room with panoramic views, creating a truly impressive space to host or unwind.

Self-Contained Apartments
Attached yet entirely independent, three apartments offer further living flexibility, ideal for extended family, guest suites, or generating rental income. Each unit is self-contained with its own entrance, kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom, and living space, providing comfort and privacy. These spaces could also be used as offices, creative studios, or holiday lets, offering huge lifestyle or commercial potential.

Grounds & Outbuildings
The Observatory sits within well-maintained and varied grounds that cater to a range of lifestyles. Leisure and recreation are front and centre with a heated outdoor swimming pool, complete with changing rooms and bar area, making it ideal for summer entertaining. A full-size tennis court adds to the active lifestyle appeal, while peaceful landscaped gardens offer plenty of quiet corners to relax.

Two large greenhouses, potting sheds, and tool stores will delight avid gardeners, while the detached triple garage, with a large upper room ripe for use as a games room, studio, or home office, adds yet more versatility. A separate double garage/workshop offers ample space for storage or hobbies. Adding a unique feature is the estate’s historic tower, believed to be a converted windmill dating to the early 1700s, now providing charming multi-storey storage and an iconic landmark on the grounds.

Equestrian Facilities
For horse lovers or those seeking rural enterprise opportunities, the equestrian area features six stables, a tack room, hay barn, and three well-fenced paddocks. The land is gently sloped and offers good drainage, making it ideal for year-round use. With excellent vehicular access and separation from the main residence, it’s well-suited for private equestrian use, smallholding, or countryside hobbies.
