East Harptree offers an excellent range of village amenities, including a community-owned pub, village shop, primary school, nursery, and hairdresser. It is well placed for access to the nearby towns and cities of Bristol, Bath, and Wells, all of which are within 15 miles and provide a wider range of retail, cultural, and professional services.
Families benefit from access to well-regarded schools. East Harptree Primary School is located in the village, and the plots fall within the catchment for Chew Valley School for secondary education. There is also a strong selection of private schools nearby, including Wells Cathedral School, Clifton College, BGS, QEH, Millfield and Prior Park.
The surrounding countryside offers numerous walking trails, with direct access to the Mendip Way. Nearby attractions include Litton Reservoir, Blagdon Lake, and Chew Valley Lake—ideal for walking, cycling, and fishing.
Investment Potential
Building a custom home at The Wildlands not only provides creative freedom but may also result in meaningful financial benefits. Stamp Duty Land Tax applies only to the plot purchase price, not the overall build cost—delivering potential savings and increased equity upon completion.
