Description

The Old Rectory is a charming, unlisted former rectory situated in a peaceful setting with far-reaching views of Glastonbury Tor. The property has been the beloved home of its current owners for 52 years and is nestled in 4.46 acres of unspoilt countryside, surrounded by rolling hills, woodland, and winding country lanes. The house, built in the 1800s, has retained many of its original features, including a brick-paved floor, fireplaces, and white-painted beams. The interior has great charm and character, with an arc of reception rooms facing southeast to southwest to catch the best of the natural light. The property also features a large kitchen with an AGA, a walk-in larder, and six good-sized double bedrooms with far-reaching views. The estate includes a 13.7-mile circular trail, a tennis court, a stable block with three loose boxes, and two paddocks. The village of Staple Fitzpaine is nearby, and the county town of Taunton is just a 15-minute drive away, offering easy access to transport links, shops, and businesses.
