Description

MARNICK HOUSE, PITCOMBE, NR BRUTON, SOMERSET, BA10 0PH

A spacious and well-maintained detached house in a peaceful village setting, just outside Bruton and within the catchment for the highly regarded Sexey’s School.

The versatile accommodation features a dining hall, sitting room, living room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, ground-floor shower room, master bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite, four further bedrooms, and a bathroom.

Outside, there is ample driveway parking, a double garage with a soundproof studio/cinema room beneath and landscaped gardens with an orchard area.

Accommodation
The property is quietly positioned in the village of Pitcombe, moments from Bruton yet tucked away from through traffic.

A covered entrance porch leads to the solid wood front door, opening into a wide and welcoming dining hall. The ground floor offers a superb flow, with light-filled reception rooms ideal for both family life and entertaining.

The dining hall is flooded with natural light from tall panel windows. Adjacent, the large sitting room connects to the living room in an l-shape and spans the rear of the house, with triple aspect glazing, double doors to the garden, and an elegant open fireplace with marble hearth and surround. 

The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of painted units with granite-effect worktops and tiled splashbacks. A Belfast sink sits under a window overlooking the front garden. A gas-fired Rangemaster cooker sits within the units. A utility room with further units and a stable door to the garden sits beyond, along with a fully tiled Shower Room/ WC.

A tall arched window above the stairs fills the landing with light and frames views of the rear garden and hills beyond.

The master bedroom suite includes a large double bedroom, a well-appointed dressing room with built-in wardrobes, and an en suite with a bath, walk in shower, WC, pedestal basin, and heated towel rail.

There are four further bedrooms, one of which features a large walk-in cupboard with potential to convert into an en suite. A family bathroom and an airing cupboard complete the first floor.

Studio & Garage
Steps in the garage lead down to a fully soundproofed Studio, currently used as a cinema room. With power, lighting, and separate access, this offers outstanding potential as a home office, creative workspace, or teenage den.

The double garage above includes power and lighting, a pedestrian door, and additional workshop space.

Gardens & Grounds
From the quiet country lane, timber double gates open onto a driveway with parking for at least six vehicles. A separate wrought iron pedestrian gate leads to steps down to the rear garden, which is predominantly lawned with mature shrub borders and hedging for privacy. A paved terrace provides a lovely suntrap for evening dining.
The front garden features another private lawned area with raised beds, while the side garden bursts with wildflowers in spring.
Beyond the garage lies a small orchard planted with a selection of fruit and nut trees, including plum, and walnut. The post-and-rail fencing ensures a safe and secure environment for children and pets.

About the area
Marnick enjoys an idyllic position in the quiet hamlet of Pitcombe, nestled on the edge of the ever-popular town of Bruton. This is a peaceful and picturesque setting, yet just moments from one of Somerset’s most desirable and culturally rich towns.

Bruton has gained national recognition for its vibrant community, excellent amenities and outstanding lifestyle offering. It’s home to a number of acclaimed eateries including At the Chapel and the renowned Roth Bar & Grill at the Hauser & Wirth gallery – a world-class arts destination that has firmly placed Bruton on the cultural map. The town also provides everyday essentials including a doctors’ surgery, pharmacy, vet, post office, fuel station, and several independent food stores and boutiques.
Just a ten-minute drive away lies the elegant town of Castle Cary, well known for its charming High Street, weekly market, and mainline railway station with direct services to London Paddington. Nearby too is The Newt in Somerset – a country estate with gardens, hotel, spa and restaurant, widely considered one of the UK’s top rural attractions.

The surrounding area is home to a number of thriving market towns including Wincanton and Shepton Mallet, both offering larger supermarkets and additional services. Gillingham and Sherborne—both within 20–30 minutes—also offer Waitrose stores.

For broader retail and recreational needs, the historic cities of Bath and Wells, as well as Bristol and Yeovil, are all comfortably reached within the hour. The nearby A303 (approx. 6 miles) provides excellent road access to London and the southwest, while mainline rail connections from both Bruton and Castle Cary offer swift links to London Paddington and Waterloo. International travel is easily facilitated via Bristol and Exeter airports.

The area is particularly well served with educational options. Within easy walking distance are King’s Bruton and Sexey’s School, the highly regarded state boarding school. Bruton Primary School caters for younger pupils, while nearby Millfield, Hazelgrove, and All Hallows are respected independent prep schools attracting families from across the region.
