It’s only when you look through the photos that you realise just how huge and fantastic this house is.

8 bedroom house for sale on Church Road, Abbots Leigh, Bristol, Somerset
Price on application (But is about £4m)

This is a wonderful Grade II listed family house – very beautiful to look at and has this stunning conservatory that unusually has a staircase in it!

It’s called Abbots Leigh House and it was originally built in about 1780 as the Dower House to Leigh Court.


It’s got lots of bedrooms and reception rooms – and has in the basement a large snooker room, laundry room, a gymnasium and wet room.

Opposite the garage is the coach house; a self-contained two storey cottage.

The gardens and grounds include a rose garden, Venetian water garden, large croquet lawn and pergola occasionally opened to the public through the National Garden Scheme. Beyond the garden are 2 paddocks complimented by 2 stables and a tack room with its own vehicular access.

This house is very interesting to look at. Perhaps a little industrial compared to the normal houses I end up sharing with you but it’s certainly different! Its a 3 bedroom semi overlooking the sea at Lyme Regis – it also has a roof terrace with views of the coast and town! It’s a shame the stairs are in the curved bit as I think they’re one of the features of the building! I’m not sure it’s for me though even with it’s sea view!

It’s on at £485,000.
