Gibb Hill, Courtway

A five bedroom period farmhouse with an excellent range of modern farm buildings, in grounds of 60 acres, situated within the Quantock Hills

Gibb Hill is believed to be some 300 years old and was originally part of the neighbouring Cothelstone estate. The current owners have been in residence some twenty seven years and during that time they have considerably extended and improved the property so that it now provides a five bedroom family house. The property has natural stone and painted and rendered elevations beneath a mainly tiled roof and most of the windows are double glazed and there is oil fired central heating. As one would expect of a property of this age, it exhibits many period features including a particularly fine inglenook fireplace in the sitting room, together with a wealth of exposed beams. The kitchen is fitted with a range of custom built pine fronted units and there is a two oven solid fuel Rayburn. The kitchen opens through to the dining room making a great entertaining and living space and the dining room has double glazed sliding patio doors opening on to the garden and affording wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. This room has exposed oak flooring. Also on the ground floor can be found a cloakroom and freezer/utility room. On the first floor can be found a master bedroom which because of the lie of the land, also has double glazed sliding doors opening onto the upper garden and again wonderful views over the surrounding countryside including Broomfield Hill. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom/shower room. There are four further bedrooms, one currently utilised as a study and a family shower room with modern white suite. The guest bedroom also has sliding double glazed doors which open onto a balcony.
