6 Bedroom Detached House

Set in the most idyllic countryside surroundings, Phoenix House & Owl’s Hoot offers a truly special opportunity to enjoy rural Somerset living at its finest. Tucked away just outside the village of Stogumber, this charming period cottage comes with an attached contemporary two-bedroom annexe, offering an incredibly flexible layout perfect for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even Airbnb income potential. There is also exciting potential, subject to the necessary consents, to combine the period cottage and the contemporary annexe wing to create one truly exceptional country home.

Ross Loves - "Phoenix House & Owl’s Hoot is one of those rare homes that offers everything – charm, character, flexibility and setting. The cottage and contemporary annexe blend beautifully, creating options for multigenerational living, guest accommodation or income potential. Both enjoy far-reaching views across open countryside and towards the Quantock Hills, while the gardens are simply idyllic – mature, private and designed to soak up the sunshine and scenery. With space to work from home, a peaceful semi-rural location and the opportunity (STPP) to combine the two properties into one exceptional country residence, this is a home that truly captures the very best of Somerset living."

Surrounded by open fields with sweeping views towards the Quantock Hills, this property combines traditional character with modern versatility – a rare find in such a tranquil yet accessible location, approximately half an hour from Taunton.

Phoenix House exudes warmth and charm, with welcoming living spaces, period features and lovely outlooks from every window. The adjoining Owl’s Hoot annexe has its own independent access yet connects seamlessly, making it ideal for family or guests while maintaining privacy. The overall layout provides the flexibility to enjoy the property as two individual dwellings, or as a combined residence of exceptional scale and design (STPP).

The gardens are simply delightful – generous in size and thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of their setting. An expansive paved terrace, a large central lawn framed by mature planting, and at the far end, an apple orchard offers a perfect touch of country charm. A small brook meanders gently along one boundary, adding to the serenity of the setting. Beyond this lies a prefabricated single garage and ample additional parking.

A detached garden room measuring approximately 15’7” x 12’8” provides a superb additional space – ideal as a home office, studio, or creative retreat – with inspiring views over the gardens and fields beyond.

Peaceful yet perfectly placed, Phoenix House & Owl’s Hoot sit within the most picturesque part of West Somerset, surrounded by rolling countryside and with stunning far-reaching views across the Quantocks. The sought-after village of Stogumber offers a welcoming community, pub, village shop and excellent access to the A358 for connections towards Taunton and the coastline at Watchet and Blue Anchor.

A beautifully located and highly adaptable home with incredible potential – whether you’re seeking a family home with space for relatives, a lifestyle property with income options, or the opportunity to create one remarkable country home with commanding views and soul-soothing surroundings, Phoenix House & Owl’s Hoot deliver something truly exceptional.
