Description

The Old Post Office is centrally situated in the most sought-after village of Butleigh - a thriving community less than 3 miles from Millfield School and 4 miles from Glastonbury.

Discretely positioned sideways on to the road this former post office - which has been in the same family for several decades is now a charming home - brimming with character.

Enter through the front door into the wide hallway and you are instantly charmed by the interior! To the left is the dining room with a window to the front and fireplace with wood burner. Beyond this is a large bespoke kitchen with a range of handmade units and wooden work surfaces. There is an Aga and windows to the side. Off the kitchen is an office or study with a vaulted ceiling.

The sitting room is a truly comfortable space with an impressive inglenook fireplace. From here there is a light and bright garden room with dining or study space and a wood burner. Doors lead out to the gardens.

To the rear is a large utility room with bespoke wooden cupboards and work tops. There is a cloakroom and shower room too.

There are two wooden stairs cases off the sitting room and dining room. There are four bedrooms - one leading off another all with great character features. There is a shower room and separate bathroom on the first floor.

Outside there are large level gardens with an abundance of mature shrubs and planting. A lean-to glass greenhouse is situated to one side. There is a large swathe of lawn with hedging providing a huge amount of privacy. There is a double open carport as well as a large workshop which - subject to planning permission - could be converted into further accommodation. The driveway is set behind wooden gates and has a wisteria covered pergola - providing ample off-street parking for several cars. There is also a further walk-in greenhouse attached to the rear of the property with raised beds.

All in all, this is a simply delightful and most deceptively spacious detached family home ready to be loved again by the next owners. Offered with no onward chain.

About Hunter French, Bruton

9 High Street, Bruton, BA10 0AB

Hunter French Estate Agents were formed in 2005 by Stephen Hunter and Karen Dumine both of whom had been working in corporate Estate Agency since 1996 and 1988 respectively.

They decided to join forces and opened an Estate Agency that actually focused on selling property rather than mortgages, overseas homes and insurances! The first office was opened on the busy London Road in Bath - covering Larkhall and the villages beyond.

In 2007 their second branch was opened in Corsham, followed by Devizes, Frome and Tetbury. In 2010 Karen Dumine headed up the new office in Bruton and then Wincanton. 2024 welcomed another new branch opening in Wotton - Under - Edge in Gloucestershire.

Karen has a wealth of incredible knowledge in the property industry. She has not only helped hundreds of people move in her career but has also been involved in property renovation, holiday lets, short term rentals - she has even written about property and been published in newspapers and magazines.

She is joined in the Bruton Office by Issy Creighton, and Olive Evans-Van Cleef. Independent financial services are provided by Jeremy Blair and Jo Betts
