SWALLOWS AGENCY are delighted to offer this fabulous family home situated on the outskirts of Bruton. Built in 1927 this unique bay-fronted house is flooded with natural light and boasts exceptional views across the valley to the east, south and west.
The property stands proudly within the rural countryside but is superbly positioned to give access to Bruton High Street and Bruton Railway Station, both of which are only a five minute walk away.
The town enjoys businesses catering for every day needs such as: general stores, post office, library, gift shops, antique outlets, veterinary practice, doctors and dentists, Eateries such as The Chapel, public houses, tea rooms and coffee shops. The nearby Newt and the Hauser & Worth Art Gallery and Gardens on the outskirts of the town are a real attraction along with the Roth Bar and Grill.
There are many major routes with the A303 to London, home counties and Exeter, A37 to the historic cities of Bath and Bristol and motorway connections making the south west easily accessible and commuter viable along with the railway station. The town is also excellent for schooling with Bruton Primary School, Bruton School for Girls, Kings and Sexeys. Other local schools include Hazlegrove Prep school at Sparkford, All Hallows Prep School at Cranmore, Millfield Prep and Senior Schools in Glastonbury and Street and The Blue School and The Cathedral School in Wells.
The accommodation comprises arched front double doors lead into the wide, open hallway and two superb reception rooms, naturally light, with large picture bay windows overlook the vista of the garden. Fireplaces, one with a wood-burning stove, create focal points within each room and their generous dimensions allow for flexible seating arrangements.
The kitchen/diner with its high ceilings and French doors opening directly into the garden is a light space creating a sociable and welcoming kitchen. Fitted units offer plenty of storage space with the added advantage of a utility room, conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen, with a separate pantry.
The staircase ascends to a landing with an unusually large oriel window creating the perfect viewing gallery to observe the surrounding gardens. Five double bedrooms provide spacious accommodation, two with triple aspect windows continuing the ongoing theme of naturally floodlit rooms. A family sized bathroom with a roll top bath and shower cubicle is another bright and airy space.
Outside, the garden is a combination of lawn and gravel surrounded by mature hedging. The front garden enjoys extensive country views and wraps around the property to the sizeable back garden stocked with fruit trees and mature planting of shrubs. There is ample space for parking and a garage/outbuilding offers extra storage space.
