This period home for sale has “immense character” and its own vineyard!

Weston Lodge, in Weston-under-Penyard, is believed to date back to 1840, having originally formed part of a larger stone house. 

There are original features throughout the home, including a Bath stone fireplace, ceiling roses and wood strip floors. 

From the porch, the property opens up into a dining room with 20-foot high ceilings and a central ceiling rose, as well as a feature fireplace and coving. 

Beyond the dining room is the drawing room, which also has high ceilings - of 22-feet - and a Bath stone fireplace. 

Both reception rooms have doors leading directly into the Victorian conservatory, which has manually controlled venting along one side. 

Completing the ground floor is a kitchen, a laundry and utility room, a small study and a cloakroom. 

Upstairs, the long landing offers access to three bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite bathroom, a family bathroom, and a further room which could be used as a study or a child’s bedroom. 

In the grounds is a paved sun terrace with a fig tree and a pond, a lawned garden and a summerhouse, as well as a knot garden with box hedging. 

The main attraction of the grounds is a wildlife garden and the “highly productive” vineyard, which grows Phoenix grapes and has been used to produce wine with Three Choirs Winery. 

The property is being sold by estate agents Morris Bricknell for a guide price of £775,000.

The agent commented: “Originally forming part of a much larger stone house, Weston Lodge is believed to date from around 1840, and comprises a spacious period property of immense appeal. 

“Principal room sizes are generous, and most rooms have a beautiful outlook across the fine rear gardens, the land in total extending to approaching an acre.”
