Million Dollar
Homes

Under one million pounds, a magnificent villa adorned with wisteria that is located on the edge of Exmoor. In addition to having three bedrooms and a large number of gardens, the Church House in West Anstey is situated in a very desirable location overall. Moreover, it would not appear out of place if it were featured on the cover of the magazine.

One of the most significant drawbacks of working at Country Life magazine, and more specifically at the Country Life Online Property Desk (CLOPD), is that you soon develop an estimation of the amount of money that you believe a property could be worth. The purpose of this is not to diminish the inherent expertise of the relevant agent in determining the appropriate valuation; rather, it is to simply acknowledge that, despite the fact that it may appear absurd that a castle and estate in Scotland might be priced at the same level as a home in London with four bedrooms, this is the reality of the situation.

Another view of the front of the home, however this one features a greater number of flowers. Consequently, my eyebrows were raised when I first lay eyes on The Church House. I was surprised by its appearance. From my perspective, the home, which is now listed with Savills and has a guide price of £795,000, appears to be nothing less than ideal. Observe the stone facade that is covered in wisteria trees. Recognize the comforting presence of the church tower in the background. With three chimneys! Land that is nearly one acre in size! To the south of Exmoor, one mile! In addition, there are three bedrooms. Now, what is the catch?

The sitting area, which features views from both sides of the room. The hitch is that, at least from what I can see on the internet, there does not appear to be one. It is a freehold property that is located in the village of West Anstey and is classed as Grade II on the property registry. The accommodations are spread out across two floors and have a total area of around 2,600 square feet. This space includes an attached workshop and store.

Videos that are suggested for you! An very charming kitchen in a farmhouse. Would you like that to be used in an Aga setting? There are two wonderful inglenook fireplaces, exposed beams, and flagstone floors inside the property, which creates an atmosphere that is a symphony of period beauty. On the ground floor, in addition to the three bedrooms that are located on the first floor, there is also a dining room, a huge farmhouse kitchen, and a sitting room. In addition, the house features a sizable flagstone patio area that can be used for dining outside in the event that the weather is favorable.

A perspective that looks down the garden, with the stream depicted in the front and the rolling countryside beyond it. In addition, the gardens are not a disappointment. In addition to being exquisitely manicured and densely planted, they offer a great deal of color throughout the year. Additionally, they feature a stream that flows through the bottom area and eventually flows into a pond. There is a little copse of forest that is included in the sale, in addition to the terrace that was mentioned earlier, which offers a great deal of nice views to the south and west.

There is the main bedroom suite. It doesn't get any better than this in terms of location anywhere else. Near the Church of St. Petrock in West Anstey, the property is located within a Dark Skies region and is situated right below the church. Those who are interested in exploring the surrounding area will find that the Two Moors Way offers a great deal of opportunities for walking and bridleways.

Even the garage and wood shop are discretely tucked away in the branches surrounding some trees. If you are looking for amenities, the nearby village of Knowstone has a restaurant called the Masons Arms that has been awarded a Michelin star. Additionally, the magnificent village of Dulverton is just five miles to the east. There are a great number of bars, stores, restaurants, and other local facilities that may be found during your stay. Since I had been there and found it to be wonderful, I would know.
