Description

Property Description: A characterful 2/3 bedroom house with far-reaching views and available from mid December 2026/early January 2027. Set within the attractive grounds of the former Mendip Hospital, the property is in a peaceful setting with countryside views and fabulous walks on your doorstep.

The house is well presented throughout and combines period charm with comfortable, practical living. The entrance hall leads into the kitchen/dining room and is a practical and sociable space with room for a table and chairs. The kitchen is fitted with an electric oven, 5 ring gas hob, dishwasher and plenty of storage.

The sitting room is double aspect and features an electric fire, creating a cosy space to relax. Also on the ground floor is a useful utility area with a washing machine, a downstairs WC and a versatile single bedroom or study.

On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, one of which has a built-in wardrobe. The family bathroom has a walk-in shower. The attic room is a good size and would also make a useful home office.

Outside: To the front of the property is a west facing, paved, part-walled courtyard garden with outside dining furniture. The surrounding grounds are communal for the historic main building which is now divided into houses and apartments. The grounds are delightful and perfect for an afternoon stroll. There is parking for two cars.

Location: Giles Farm is set within the grounds of a Grade II listed former hospital which is now the village of South Horrington on the outskirts of Wells. This comparatively new village has a friendly community with close associations with the neighbouring villages of East and West Horrington. The stunning conversion of the old hospital buildings (designed by the celebrated architect Gilbert Scott) has lovely communal gardens with a cricket pitch and the Wells Golf Club being just a short walk away. There are beautiful countryside walks close by with some fabulous views. Nearby East Horrington has a popular village primary school.

The picturesque city of Wells (2 miles) has a bustling High Street and provides a range of local amenities with four supermarkets (including Waitrose), a cinema, a leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors and some fabulous independent shops. There are also famous historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and the Bishops Palace, as well as a twice weekly produce market. There are excellent state schools in the vicinity, including Horrington School and Pre-school, The Blue School in Wells for secondary, as well as independent schools including All Hallows Prep School, Downside, Millfield and Wells Cathedral School. Both Bath (19 miles) and Bristol (21 miles) are within commuting distance and there is a main line railway station with links to London in Castle Cary 13 miles away. Street and Glastonbury are 20 minutes away and Bristol airport is an easy 30-minute drive.
