Old Vicarage Gardens, Sunny Hill, Bruton, Somerset

Forming part of an exclusive semi-rural development of just seven properties in, as the name of the development implies, the gardens of a nearby old vicarage, Bishop’s Corner is an attractive semi-detached family home, rendered to the front and weatherboarded to the rear, offering more than 1,300 sq ft of bright, attractive accommodation arranged over two floors. The property offers a practical, elegant, and cohesive living environment, featuring exposed wood effect flooring throughout the ground floor. The predominantly open-plan ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming entrance hall area with useful storage and a fitted utility room incorporating a modern cloakroom. It includes an extensive L-shaped kitchen/dining room and drawing room, together with a well-proportioned inter-connecting rear aspect study, suitable for a variety of uses. The front aspect kitchen/dining room features a range of contemporary wall and base, white quartz work surfaces and splashbacks, a Belfast sink, modern integrated appliances including a Rangemaster Pavkal cooker and space for a sizeable breakfast/dining table. The remaining dual aspect drawing room has full-width and full-height patio doors to a raised rear decked terrace, affording far-reaching views.

A concealed staircase rises from the drawing room to the first floor which provides a rear aspect principal bedroom with French doors to a spacious 158 sq ft paved private balcony, affording countryside views, and a contemporary en suite shower room. There are three additional bedrooms, two to the front aspect and one to the rear overlooking the rear garden and countryside beyond, together with a modern family bathroom with bath and separate shower.

Having plenty of kerb appeal, the property is approached over a shared tarmac driveway giving access to two allocated parking spaces and over a low-maintenance gravelled forecourt with a paved stepping-stone path to the front door. Steps accessible from the gable end of the property lead down to the enclosed garden to the rear which is laid mainly to gently-sloping lawn bordered at its end by mature trees and features a raised decked terrace accessible from the drawing room, providing stunning far-reaching views over neighbouring rolling South Somerset countryside.
