Bruelands, Bruton

Located at the end of a small cluster of houses, close to the centre of Bruton, lies this unique and surprising cherished family home that the current occupiers have enjoyed for the past 23 years. Arriving at the property there is little to suggest what lies beyond the front façade until arriving at the main entrance, which lies to the side of the house and a glimpse of the views as well as the house begins to be revealed. Set in this elevated position, this architecturally designed house, which is one of two houses built in 1969, was constructed utilising the hill to create a split-level property in an enviable position offering a sense of privacy and position with far-reaching views over the water meadows and open fields beyond. The house has been well maintained by the current owners and reveals far more than first meets the eye on arrival with flexible accommodation suited to both family living and those seeking an unconventional exciting space. The front door opens onto a welcoming entrance hall where a glimpse of the split-level accommodation is first seen. Along the original parquet floored entrance hall, access to the principal reception areas and bedrooms are made.  On this level, is one of the four bedrooms, which, if required, could serve as a home office and the fully fitted kitchen which has views over the front garden. Also, there is a cloakroom and internal access to the garage. At the end of the entrance hall, stairs rise to the remaining three bedrooms and family bathroom. From the entrance hall, stairs descend to a generous sitting room, filled with natural light and revealing the delightful views out over the beautifully arranged garden and countryside beyond. This inviting space flows naturally through to a dining room, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. From here, a door opens out onto a raised outside seating area, perfectly positioned for al fresco dining and taking in the garden outlook. This truly is an exciting property that currently offers comfortable family accommodation, but it also offers great potential to evolve. OutsideThe garden is a real highlight, beautifully kept and offering a peaceful retreat, with space to sit and enjoy the sun at different times of the day, there are mature shrubs and flower beds and a handy garden shed.  To the front, there is off-road parking and access to the integral garage, this property also owns the bank to the front and an additional parking space. Situation
