About this property

Set in the desirable village of Mells this characterful 3 bed home is believed to date back to the 1920s and was originally built to house families displaced after the First World War. Today, it has evolved into something entirely unique - where history meets a bold, creative sense of style with incredible views.

Step inside and you immediately feel the difference. High ceilings and generous proportions give a wonderful sense of space, while large windows flood the rooms with natural light. The interiors have been thoughtfully curated with an industrial edge - rich textures, layered materials, and confident use of colour - creating a home that feels both expressive and inviting.

At its heart is a spacious kitchen/diner and living room, designed for gathering, cooking, and long, relaxed evenings with friends. The separate reception room offers a more peaceful retreat, ideal as a snug or TV room depending on how you like to live.

Upstairs, three generous double bedrooms offer comfortable and versatile accommodation. One features a cleverly designed mezzanine level, currently used as a home office - but can easily become an additional bedroom and ensuite bathroom (as many of the homes on Longfield have done). The mezzanine is perfect for modern working or as a creative space. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the second floor.

Outside, the mature garden is generous in size, offering plenty of room to play, entertain, or simply enjoy the outdoors. To the front, the house enjoys a lovely open outlook across glorious village countryside, giving a sense of space and calm that’s increasingly hard to find.

The lifestyle is just as appealing as the home itself. The much-loved Talbot Inn is a short walk away for drinks or dinner, the beautiful Walled Garden hosts regular events and has a fabulous garden cafe and plant centre and there is a community shop with café and post office!

There’s a real sense of community and connection and the surrounding countryside offers endless walks, and a river and waterfall straight from your doorstep. Vobster Quay, popular for wild swimming and diving, and Babington House are both within a few minutes too.

This is not a ‘standard’ home
it’s one for someone who values great energy, character, creativity, and a setting that feels a world away, yet still connected.
