Central Batcombe - Bruton

Millbrook is a beautifully presented three-bedroom cottage set in the picturesque and ever-popular village of Batcombe, just three miles north of the vibrant town of Bruton.

This charming home offers a perfect blend of character and modern comfort, with spacious living areas, countryside views, and a generous garden—ideal for families, couples, or those seeking a peaceful retreat.

A welcoming entrance hall provides access to the main living areas and staircase to the first floor. The sitting room is a wonderful space for relaxing or entertaining, complete with a wood-burning stove and French doors opening onto a raised decked terrace overlooking the garden.
The stylish kitchen features an island with an induction hob and breakfast bar, integrated slimline dishwasher, and ample cupboard space. It flows seamlessly into a bright and airy dining room, also with French doors leading out to the terrace and garden beyond—ideal for alfresco dining in the warmer months.

A separate utility room provides a sink and space for a washing machine, tumble dryer, and fridge-freezer. There is also a rear hall with garden access and a convenient downstairs cloakroom.

Upstairs there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all positioned at the rear of the property to take full advantage of the stunning countryside views. The modern family bathroom includes both a bath and a separate shower cubicle.

Outside
The rear garden is a real highlight—generous in size and enjoying far-reaching views. A raised decked terrace is accessed from both the sitting and dining rooms, leading down to a large lawn and a further paved patio seating area. At the end of the garden is a gravelled area offering off-road parking for several vehicles, while additional on-street parking is available at the front of the cottage. A side gate leads to an alleyway offering direct access to the rear garden.

Situation
Millbrook is set within a conservation area in one of Somerset’s most sought-after villages. Batcombe itself is a bustling community with a village hall that hosts cinema evenings, yoga and exercise classes, a flower show and other such events - the Three Horseshoes recently reopened, is a highly regarded gastro pub. A new addition to the village is a fresh milk vending machine recently installed by a local farmer and offers local produce. The traditional village fete, in August, is attended by folk from miles around.

The town has several well-known restaurants, pubs and bars including The Old Pharmacy, Osip, At the Chapel and The Roth Bar & Grill at the world-renowned Hauser & Wirth Gallery.
