The open-plan living floor is topped by an elaborately moulded glass ceiling worthy of a Victorian railway terminus;

lavishly proportioned windows light the orangery,Wiveliscombe2 study and library;Wiveliscombe3 and half an acre of formally landscaped gardens extend into woodland.

It’s a fascinating piece of property and is a good example of a well-done conversion of a historic building. Wiveliscombe6 Wiveliscombe7 Yours for £515,000. HERE.
