Gin lover's dream home goes on the market... for a cool £5,950,000!

A luxurious 16th-century manor house in Somerset which houses its very own distillery, an award-winning dry gin producing business and a stylish gin bar has gone on the market.

Interested? Well, it’s time to tip out your piggy bank - the 62-acre, Grade I-listed Newton House estate is listed for sale for a breathtaking £5,950,000. Gulp!

If, however, you and ten or twenty of your closest friends and family do want to pool your pennies and up sticks to this gin-lover’s dream home, you’ll have plenty to keep you entertained aside from making (and sipping) gin.

The estate also boasts almost 40 rooms (of which a mere nine are bedrooms, so plenty of room for friends to kip over after an enthusiastic evening of gin tasting), a library, a home cinema, a wine cellar, eight bathrooms, a car showroom with space for 12 vehicles, a restaurant and fishing lake. Oh, and some beautifully restored formal gardens, surrounded by farmland.

Check out the photos and details of the listing on estate agent Knight Frank’s website.
