Chantry is a newly renovated contemporary styled house situated in Pitcombe just a stone’s throw from the popular town of Bruton. This fabulous and deceptively spacious family home is one of six houses that make up ‘Old Vicarage Gardens’ and accompany the original Vicarage that dates back to the early 1800’s. Built with an attractive combination of slate on the roof, larch cladding and antique white render, this stylish development has rejuvenated this intrinsically pretty site - the quality of the build both inside and out is particularly impressive and typical of this developer’s attention to detail.

An elegant front door opens to a hallway with access to an impressive kitchen/living area and utility room that make up the ground floor. The ‘Masterclass’ kitchen is luxuriously equipped with pull out larder, quartz worktops and integrated appliances that include a Neff fridge freezer, a Smeg range and gas hob, and a Neff dishwasher. A dual height island is illuminated by two stylish lanterns and doubles as a breakfast bar. Underfoot, Italian wood effect tiles are warmed by underfloor heating and two fully glazed doors open to a pretty South terrace outside. The living area is well proportioned, light and airy and defined by some elegant tongue and groove panelling on the walls. Completing the ground floor is a separate utility room with wc and space for a washing machine.

A flight of stairs rises from the hall to the first floor landing with access to two bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom. A second staircase rises to the second floor with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. All the bedrooms are generously proportioned and come with good views of the gardens and the surrounding countryside. The bathrooms are beautifully furnished with heated chrome towels, ‘state of the art’ mirrors with built in lighting options and high end fixtures and fittings. Individual thermostats allow zoned heating.

Outside
The garden lies to the rear of the house and stretches upwards from a pretty terrace of Indian sandstone to a post and rail fence on the boundary. External lights and outside electrical sockets are useful additions. The house comes with two allocated parking places and the potential to buy a visitors permit for parking across the road.

Situation
Chantry and Old Vicarage Gardens where it is situated is set well back from the road and accessed via a pretty driveway that wends its way beneath an aged copper beech tree. Pitcombe lies just on the edge of Bruton with its bustling high street, home to a florist, a pharmacy, a variety of boutiques, the renowned restaurant “At the Chapel” and the world-famous art gallery “Hauser and Wirth”. The pretty town of Castle Cary is a few miles to the west, which also offers several independent shops, pubs, interiors retailers and a bookstore. Other local attractions include “The Newt in Somerset” and Stourhead gardens to the South. Travel connections are good with easy access to the A303 that links London to the West Country. Rail links are excellent with trains from Bruton to Waterloo and Castle Cary to Paddington with travelling time less than two hours.

Schools
Excellent local schools in the area include King’s School Bruton and, and the state boarding school - Sexey's, which has received the highest performing 6th form award in Somerset. Bruton has its own primary school and, in close proximity, are Millfield, Hazlegrove and All Hallows prep schools.
