Gardens & Grounds The mature gardens complement the house perfectly and, whilst needing some further works to bring them back to their former glory, have been designed to create a series of distinct areas, including a kitchen garden with a greenhouse, mature lawns and an orchard.
A paved terrace at the rear of the house enjoys a south-westerly aspect, offering wonderful views over the garden and towards Knole Hill. The grounds also include herbaceous borders and are enclosed by hornbeam hedging.
Beyond the formal gardens lies a vegetable garden, cider apple orchard, and beyond that a further paddock with separate access if required, each adding to the property’s rural appeal.
Outbuildings The property benefits from an excellent range of outbuildings, offering potential for a variety of uses. The property currently benefits from planning permission to convert the following:
A large open, blue lias barn measuring approximately 38’ x 17’ and former cider barn (complete with cider press) measuring approximately 23’ x 15’ to convert into a separate dwelling with ancillary accommodation.
Additionally, the property offers further lean-to storage, stables, a workshop and garaging.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful period home with extensive grounds and potential further development, all set within a stunning rural landscape.
Location Knole is a peaceful and unspoilt hamlet within a conservation area, surrounded by beautiful countryside. Tucked away from main roads, it offers a tranquil setting while remaining conveniently close to local amenities.
The nearby village of Long Sutton, approximately one mile to the east, provides a village hall, church, and the highly regarded Long Sutton Golf Club. The Devonshire Arms, a well-known country inn, is a popular destination for dining, while scenic riverside and moorland walks add to the area’s appeal. For families, Long Sutton boasts a well-respected primary school, shop and Post Office.
Further amenities, including shops and services, can be found in the market towns of Somerton and Langport, just a few miles away.
