Description
The House
Believed to date back to 1750, Wareham Lodge was originally a farmhouse that has been extended and adapted over the years to create a substantial family home. The property now offers 7/8 bedrooms and generous reception space, together with an independently accessed annexe and studio, both of which offer potential for dual occupation. Set within mature gardens extending to over half an acre, with garaging, ample parking, and a central location, Wareham Lodge provides an excellent opportunity to acquire a large and versatile family home. The property also enjoys convenient access to Bristol to the north and Wells to the south, with excellent transport links.
A practical storm porch, ideal for storing boots and umbrellas, leads to a welcoming front door that opens into the reception hall. Featuring attractive tessellated floor tiles, the hall includes a downstairs cloakroom and two staircases rising to the first floor, providing access to both the main house and the left wing.
To the right, the principal accommodation comprises a charming drawing room with a cast-iron feature fireplace, opening into a bright garden room with French doors leading out to the garden. Beyond lies the kitchen, centred around an attractive fireplace with space for a range cooker, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. A utility room to the rear offers additional storage together with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious dining room featuring a fireplace and window seat, with a door leading through to a useful office.
Returning to the reception hall, the left wing of the property offers excellent potential for self-contained accommodation. It comprises a utility room/kitchenette, sitting room, and garden room, while upstairs there is a generous double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.
Upstairs, the main house provides six bedrooms, five of which are generous doubles. These are served by three bathrooms, two fitted with baths and one with a walk-in shower, offering flexible accommodation for family living and guests alike.
Studio
Wareham Lodge also has the advantage of a independently accessed studio to the rear of the garage, with its own heating, bathroom and kitchenette it could subject to planning permission be used to generate extra income.
Outside
Wareham Lodge is approached via a private gated driveway, providing ample parking for several vehicles. In addition, there is a garage and a detached studio building discreetly positioned to one side of the property.
The mature wrap-around gardens extend around the house and feature a pond, greenhouse, and a variety of established trees, including oak and silver birch. Well-stocked flowerbeds and borders are interspersed throughout the grounds, showcasing an array of shrubs, vines and mature planting. The greenhouse offers an excellent opportunity for keen gardeners to cultivate plants and produce throughout the year.
