The charming historical dwelling, located in <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/somerset\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Somerset<\/a>, initially grabbed home hunters because it looks so idyllic.<\/p>\n<p>As shown by Greenslade Taylor Hunt&#8217;s listing, the majestic <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/life-style\/property\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">property<\/a> boasts two bedrooms and studio annex, not forgetting an additional two-bedroom holiday let and an impressive six acres of woodland.<\/p>\n<p>Spread over three levels, the main building radiates timeless allure with rustic wooden beams, captivating exposed brickwork and generous windows that bathe the interior with daylight.<\/p>\n<p>The only problem? The Clevedon house sits directly beneath the M5 motorway, a constant artery of transport linking the South West to the Midlands, spelling persistent noise pollution.<\/p>\n<p>After reading more about the unique dwelling&#8217; location, one commenter was quick to express doubt. They said: &#8220;Surely sleep is impossible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Equally troubled was another individual, who confessed: &#8220;I would live in constant irrational fear that a car would land on my house.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, a third critic added: &#8220;Beautiful property but couldn&#8217;t get past the M5 being above.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, some viewed the price as a steal considering the property&#8217;s charm, with one observer noting: &#8220;Not being funny that property would be double if it wasn&#8217;t under the M5.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Echoing the sentiment, another stated: &#8220;Without the M5 it would be like the perfect house.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yet others stood up for the location, countering with the argument that the sound may fade into the background with time.<\/p>\n<p>One local downplayed the disturbance, insisting: &#8220;The noise isn&#8217;t that bad, you get used to it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, a cheeky commenter joked: &#8220;In all fairness the M5 is at a standstill most weeks so probably not that noisy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the obvious drawback, the property is bound to get some interest. Aside from the motorway, Clevedon is a really picturesque place.<\/p>\n<p>Tourists often flock to the location. Top sites include the Victorian pier, National Trust property of Clevdon Court and The Marine Lake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A stunning Grade II listed residence has just hit the market with a price tag of \u00a3475,000.
