4 bed detached house for sale

Station Road, Bruton, Somerset BA10

The property offers particularly spacious and versatile accommodation and has been successfully run as a bed and breakfast by the current owners since 2007. Equally, the accommodation would create a wonderful family home with the added flexibility of a self-contained annexe, teenagers’ accommodation, guest suite or potential Airbnb, providing a number of options to suit individual requirements.

The house combines period character with a number of modern improvements, including solar panels with battery storage, and benefits from en-suite facilities to four bedrooms. There is also off-road parking, a garage, attractive gardens and pleasant views towards the school cricket ground and church tower.

A canopy porch opens into a spacious entrance hall. The sitting room has a pleasant outlook to the front aspect, and features a brick fireplace with open grate, creating a charming focal point. The dining room is also dual aspect and has a particularly attractive large bay window to the side with a built-in window seat.

The kitchen was refitted in 2019 and has a good range of modern wall and base units with ample work surfaces. A peninsula provides additional preparation space and incorporates a useful breakfast bar. A range cooker sits within a former fireplace, while a white ceramic sink completes the kitchen. A door leads through to a useful boot room, which in turn provides access to the rear garden.

Also on the ground floor is a generous double bedroom with fitted wardrobe and stylish en-suite shower room. A large utility/laundry room and separate bathroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor there are four further bedrooms. Two of these are positioned to the front of the house and enjoy views across the school cricket ground, with each having its own en-suite shower room. To the rear is a further double bedroom together with a self-contained annexe, comprising a kitchen area, lounge/bedroom, shower room and fitted wardrobe. This particularly useful space can be accessed either from the main landing or via an external staircase, making it ideal for guests, older children or a dependent relative who would appreciate a degree of independence from the main house.

There are also three useful attic rooms, providing excellent additional storage and offering scope for use as office, hobby or other ancillary space, subject to any necessary permissions.

Outside, the property has attractive gardens to both the front and rear. The rear garden leads through to the garage and off-road parking.

In summary, this substantial and versatile detached period house positioned in a highly convenient Bruton location, offers a wealth of accommodation and considerable flexibility. Having been successfully run as a bed and breakfast for many years, the property could continue in its current format or make a spacious family home with additional independent accommodation. The combination of five bedrooms with en-suite facilities, generous reception space, solar panels with battery storage, garage, parking, attractive gardens and proximity to both the High Street and railway station makes this an unusually flexible property with plenty of possibilities.
