Inside Jacob Rees-Mogg’s idyllic former family home up for sale with £2.75M price tag

Jacob Rees-Mogg’s former family home is up for sale with a £2.75 million price tag. The Rees-Mogg family moved in to the idyllic country spread in Somerset in 1978, giving the future Tory MP and cabinet minister a lavish home to grow up in.

The eight-bedroom property in the picture postcard village of Hinton Blewett, has also more recently been home to om Alexander, the CEO of Orange and T-mobile and the founder of Virgin Mobile. He lived at the Grade II Listed property for 20 years, even renting it out for a year to Irish pop band The Corrs.

The Old Rectory is only five miles away from Bath and Bristol, with Bristol International Airport just around 10 miles away. The property has been renovated over the years, with the current owners spending around £750,000.
