Description
The house was extended sympathetically at either end at some point in the last century using matching stone under clay tile roofs. It has an east/west axis and therefore catches the best of the daylight from dawn till dusk and is Grade II listed. It has huge character and has retained many original architectural fittings including a mix of 12 and 16-pane sash windows, ornamental barge boarding, two inglenook fireplaces (one sealed), ceiling beams, exposed roof timbers, a gorgeous flagstone floor in the dining room and even the original outdoor privy building. It has been the much loved home of the current owner for the past 20 years and today is immaculately presented and has clearly been well looked after.
On the ground floor there are three good-sized reception rooms, which all look out onto the surrounding countryside. These include a light and airy sitting room and a wonderful, adjacent study with windows on three sides and a door to the conservatory. The kitchen/breakfast room has plenty of room for in-kitchen dining, wide, panoramic views across the garden and is fitted with units under timber work surfaces, a range of built-in electric appliances and a two-oven AGA. Upstairs off the part-galleried landing are four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has windows on two sides, elm and oak flooring, a vaulted ceiling and a magnificent ensuite bath and shower room fitted by Smallbone of Devizes. The three remaining bedrooms share use of the family shower room.
Outbuildings & Garden
Dobbins is set back from the passing lane behind dwarf walling topped with wrought iron railings. Vehicle access is just along the lane to the north, via an entrance onto a brick-paved parking area in front of a double garage. A short distance away is a garden store/workshop with light and power. Behind it are a heated swimming pool incorporating a good-sized seating area at one end, all covered by a glazed roof, and a paved seating and barbeque area. Most of the garden extends out behind and on both sides of the house thereby providing a high degree of privacy. Immediately behind the house is a further paved seating and dining area with immediate access to the kitchen and the attached studio/office. The garden is a delight providing a tapestry of colour throughout the growing season. It encompasses an extensive, level lawn fringed by richly stocked borders fringed with clipped box hedging and yew topiary, along with a long, honeysuckle and rose covered pergola on one end plus several attractive specimen trees including Copper Beech, several Italian Cypress, Sweet Olive, Maple and Sycamore. The rear part of the garden has its own, separate vehicle access off the lane.
Dobbins is situated on the edge of the small village of Low Ham, which is a friendly community with a Grade I listed church and is surrounded by unspoilt countryside. It is only about a three-minute drive from the neighbouring village of Pitney, which has a pub (The Halfway House CAMRA Pub of the Year2023) along with two farm shops just outside the village. The nearby, small towns of Somerton and Langport can both meet most day-to-day needs with a wide and eclectic mix of shops and local businesses. These include supermarkets, GP, dental and veterinary surgeries and the superb Kelways Plants garden nursery (see & addition, there are convenient transport links nearby. The train stations at Castle Cary and Yeovil Junction have direct services to Paddington (90 minutes) and Waterloo (2.25 hours) respectively and Bristol and Exeter airports are both within an hour's drive. The wider area offers a good choice of popular independent and state schools including Hazelgrove, Kings Bruton, Millfield, Taunton schools plus the local Huish Episcopi Primary School and Academy.
