Zealy's House is an exquisite Grade II* listed townhouse with a handsome early 18th century Queen Anne facade in the Queen Anne style. It is a charming and beautifully presented house with well proportioned rooms. The entire property commands an exceptionally high level of finish and all improvements both decorative and structural have been undertaken with good taste and attention to historic detail.

Zealy's House succeeds in retaining its original charm and character whilst providing excellent family accommodation.

There is original panelling in two rooms, the original staircase, wooden floors (mainly oak and elm), several fireplaces, original doors and shutters in all the principal rooms. In these principal rooms, large windows provide bucolic views over the gardens and both Monkton Park at the rear and St. Mary's Street and churchyard to the front.

A delightful walled garden runs to the River Avon. At garden level there are two rooms which can be accessed from both the house and garden. These rooms could provide additional accommodation. There is a secure gated parking area for five cars with Cotswold resin hard standing and electric car charger situated just a little further along St. Mary Street. The walled garden can also be accessed using the flagstone passage which has a separate street entrance and is known as the horse passage' running from front to rear along one side of the house.

The garden is arranged on four levels, starting with a large flagstone terrace and raised borders, perfect for al fresco dining. This level overlooks the entire length of the gardens and Monkton Park beyond. Stone steps lead down to a flagstone path with clipped box parterre with soft planting and yew topiary.

There is a gravel and brick path that leads to the pretty seating areas. More stone steps lead down to the flagstone path which continues under an arched rose and lavender walk with lawns to either side. There are further stone steps down between brick and stone columns to the lower lawn
which has herbaceous borders, mature trees and pleached lime. Steps then lead down to a small private landing stage and boat dock on the River Avon.
