Description
Dating from the late 1700s and enhanced during the 19th century, this magnificent home combines architectural splendour with contemporary luxury, offering over 8,000 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation across three floors.
Approached via automated gates and a sweeping private drive, the house is framed by mature trees and landscaped gardens. The entrance hall immediately sets the tone, with its original natural stone floor and grand proportions. To one side is an opulent drawing room, to the other, a spectacular walnut kitchen fitted with a 5-oven AGA, Fisher & Paykel appliances, and a large marble-topped breakfast bar. A Bathstone fireplace, aged oak floors and sash windows with working shutters all enhance the space, while glazed doors connect seamlessly to the gardens. There are five reception rooms in total, each distinct in character. A sunny morning room, elegant dining room with Bathstone fireplace and garden access, and a cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove. A scullery, complete with bread oven and flagstone floor, provides secondary kitchen facilities. A pantry and cloakrooms complete the ground floor.
Below, the vaulted cellar has been partially converted into a home cinema with soundproofed flooring and retains its original wine vaults. The remaining area houses a state-of-the-art zoned heating system including new boilers. On the first floor, a spectacular principal suite comprises a grand bedroom with garden views, a beautifully finished bathroom with freestanding bath and large shower, along with a generous dressing room. This floor offers 4 further bedrooms with two guest shower rooms. The second floor boasts a further bedroom and an ensuite bathroom plus additional storage.
OUTSIDE
The gardens are sublime. Manicured lawns, clipped box hedging, mature trees and tranquil water features create an idyllic setting within a walled private environment. A formal garden sits alongside a Victorian walled garden and a paddock beyond. A charming summer house, various terraces and original outbuildings, including a coach house and former stables offer enormous flexibility. The outbuildings are suitable for garaging, office use or reinstatement as stables. The Manor is fitted with a sophisticated security system including CCTV and separate alarms.
Manor House enjoys a prime position in the charming village of Hinton Blewett, within Somerset's sought-after Chew Valley and the Mendip Hills AONB. The location combines rural seclusion with superb access to both Bath and Bristol (approx. 30 minutes), Bristol Airport (20 minutes), and fast rail links to London. The village features a traditional pub, community spirit, and stunning walks on the doorstep—while nearby Wells offers further amenities and culture. There are several primary schools in the neighbouring villages, including Camely, Chew Magna and Bishop Sutton. There are secondary schools at Chew Valley Academy which is Ofsted rated “good” in Chew Stoke, and at The Blue School Academy in Wells also Ofsted rated “good”. Private education can be found at Wells Cathedral, Sidcot Quaker School in Sidcot and at Millfield in Street. There is an excellent choice of private schools in Bristol and Bath.
