Full Description: Lubborn House is an elegant Grade II listed Georgian country house positioned in a wonderfully private setting on the edge of Baltonsborough, one of Somerset's most desirable villages. Set in beautiful mature gardens and grounds, including a paddock and detached two-bedroom cottage, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial country property near Glastonbury that combines period charm with excellent family living.Believed to date in part from the early 18th century, with earlier origins, the house is built in traditional Blue Lias stone with a stuccoed finish and symmetrical Georgian façade. Classical architectural details including sash windows, pilasters, cornices, and twin doorways.Internally, the house is flooded with natural light, with high ceilings, decorative plasterwork and well-proportioned reception rooms. These include a formal drawing room, a dining room, and a more relaxed sitting room, offering excellent space for entertaining and everyday living. The large kitchen/breakfast room is well suited to modern family life and is supported by a utility/boot room and cloakroom on the ground floor.The first floor features a spacious principal suite with dressing room and private bathroom. Six further bedrooms are arranged across the upper floors, served by three additional bathrooms, offering generous accommodation ideal for families or hosting guests. All bedrooms have wonderful garden or countryside views.The CottageA charming detached two-bedroom cottage sits behind the main house, ideal for multi-generational living, guests, staff, or rental use. It includes a kitchen/sitting room, bathroom and two bedrooms, and could also serve as a studio or home office.OutbuildingsLubborn House benefits from a superb range of traditional stone outbuildings, including a former cheese house, carriage house, stables, workshops, and garden stores. These offer significant development or conversion potential, subject to the necessary planning permissions, and could be used for equestrian purposes, hobby spaces, or as ancillary accommodation.Gardens and GroundsApproached via a private gravel drive, the property is surrounded by mature trees and well-maintained formal gardens. Highlights include sweeping lawns, deep herbaceous borders, and a magnificent 34 x 22 metre walled garden, providing structure and seasonal interest. Woodland and pasture wrap around the house, and a large paddock lies across the lane, ensuring both privacy and versatility—especially for those with equestrian or smallholding interests.Lubborn House enjoys a peaceful and private setting on the edge of Baltonsborough, a highly regarded village in Somerset, surrounded by open, level countryside and ideally positioned between the historic towns of Glastonbury, Street, and Castle Cary. The village has a thriving community and a range of local amenities, including a well-regarded primary school, parish church, convenience store, and the popular Greyhound Inn. This combination of rural charm and practical services makes Baltonsborough one of the most desirable villages in the region.The area is especially popular with families due to the outstanding selection of schools across both the state and independent sectors. Baltonsborough itself is home to a well-regarded Church of England primary school, while some of the South West's leading independent schools are nearby. These include Millfield School, Hazelgrove, Wells Cathedral School, and King's Bruton, all within a ten-mile radius of the property.The surrounding area offers a wide selection of everyday amenities, with independent shops, national supermarkets, cafés, and restaurants available in Glastonbury and Street. The area is also well served by medical facilities, including GP practices, dental surgeries, and veterinary services, all within easy reach of the property. Nearby Clarks Village in Street offers a further choice of retail outlets, and Wells—England's smallest city—is a short drive away with its famous cathedral, market, and further amenities.Transport connections are excellent, making Lubborn House particularly appealing for buyers seeking country living with commuter access. The property lies within easy reach of the A361, A37, and A371, all of which link with the A303 and M5, providing quick road access across the South West and to London.
