A striking Victorian village residence offering light and spacious living accommodation within this much sought after village.


Lambe House is a beautiful period property believed to date back to the 1827 and was once the village school. Built of sandstone elevations under slated roofs, the property was sympathetically converted many years ago and provides intriguing living accommodation with a fantastic vaulted reception area and large kitchen/dining room. In brief the accommodation comprises an entrance hall which leads to a fabulous living room with log burning stove and a step up gives access to a split level minstrel gallery and study area. From the living room a door leads through to an impressive hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and to the rear is a kitchen overlooking the gardens with a utility off. An opening leads through to a dining room which in turn leads to a utility, W.C., shower room and second kitchen. On the first floor are four double bedrooms, the master enjoying a dressing area with the potential to install an en-suite if required. There is a well-equipped family bathroom. A mezzanine area currently provides a study/library further adding to the property's appeal.

Milverton is one of the most highly regarded villages within the Taunton Deane district, much of which is designated as a conservation area in recognition of its fine Victorian and Georgian architecture. Lambe House is within easy walking distance of all the village facilities, the pathway to the modern primary school lying opposite and school buses for both Kingsmead, Corporation School at Wiveliscombe and Wellington Public School stopping outside. The village offers a good level of amenities with two pubs and a good convenience store. Taunton is readily accessible only some 7 miles away. The town of Wellington is somewhat closer at 4 miles and the M5 may be jointed at junction 26 about 5 miles distance.

The property is approached over a joint driveway with parking for 3 to 4 cars immediately to the front. The gardens associated with the property lie to the rear where there is a private decking/patio area immediately adjoining A stepped pathway leads to a further garden area at a slightly higher level which includes lawns, flower beds and herbaceous borders. The gardens enjoy a great deal of privacy and a pleasant aspect which can only be fully appreciated when viewed. In addition to the property is a useful storage building which was formerly the village firehouse and is of Grade II Listed status and is accessed directly off Sand Street. In total there are three outbuildings.
