A 'majestic' Grade II-listed property with fascinating medieval roots has come on the market near Bristol.
Chewton Place is an astounding country home situated on the River Chew, equidistance between Bristol and Bath, with a rich history dating back centuries. The estate also comes with a lodge, cottage and coach house along with expansive grounds totalling more than seven acres of land.
It is believed there has been a building on these grounds since medieval times. Chewton Place originally belonged to the Abbey of Keynsham and was thereafter sold to the Popham family – one of Somerset’s main landowning families. In turn, the estate, including the Lordship of the Manor was sold to Thomas Lediard in 1766, the year the current Grade II-listed building originates from.
