Accommodation
The property is a pretty period family home, discreetly situated near Bruton and Batcombe in one of the most sought-after areas in the heart of Somerset. This idyllic rural hideaway has recently been subject to a comprehensive and sensitive refurbishment program that has transformed this former farmhouse into a stylish and impressive country residence. The house is situated entirely within its own land and comes with two outbuildings that have also been sympathetically converted into contemporary spaces, ideal as multi- purpose studios, home offices, as premium entertaining facilities or as games rooms.

The front door opens beneath a charming Porchway to a fine hall with attractive exposed stone walls and original flagstones underfoot. The sitting room is elegantly furnished with a wood burning stove positioned within a handsome fireplace, a solid oak floor, and beautifully proportioned period south facing sash windows that allow natural light to pour into the room.Also adjacent to the hall is a fabulous, open plan 'dining area that extends into the kitchen and beyond. A second wood burner warms the room and looks out over a stunning French limestone floor whilst double doors open directly to the garden.

Running from the kitchen is a spacious and comfortable family room defined by some impressive green oak beams that rise to the apex of the ceiling and mirror a fabulous solid oak floor; once again, double doors open to the garden.Taken together, these three rooms offer the perfect space to entertain up to seventy people in some style. Completing the ground floor is a conveniently situated and well-equipped utility room accessed from the kitchen.

The main staircase rises from the hall to the first floor and a landing area. The principle bedroom suite impresses with both a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom. At the other end of the house, a second bedroom also comes with an en-suite bathroom and another flight of stairs that wind their way down to the kitchen. In the middle of the first floor is a third bathroom serving the middle bedrooms.All the bedrooms are presented in immaculate condition with new carpets and all come with picturesque views of the garden and southerly viewsacross the countryside. The contemporary styled bathrooms are beautifully appointed with travertine marble tiles, oversized showers and premium fixtures and fittings.
The Outbuildings
Both the garden cottage and studio (believed to date from the 1800's) have beenconverted into fabulous spaces that would lend themselves to a wide variety of uses. Both buildings have been fitted with insulation and the formers furnished with a solid oak floor and a wood burning stove. Off the main entertaining space are three rooms and stylish shower room.The studio is divided into two spaces and has a wonderful new grey slate floor and its own original period fireplace set into the chimney breast. Both buildings are full of character with oak beams that grace the ceilings and doors that open to a small, sheltered courtyard outside.
Outside.
The property sits in its own land approximately 1.5 acres, Adjacent to the house is a well- kept South facing lawn that sweeps away from a paved terrace, the perfect place for al fresco dining on a Summer's evening. The garden that rises up the hill to the East has been divided into several levels that include an area currently used to play football and that would easily convert to a tennis court. The landscape is enriched with a variety of trees and sheltered by a boundary of mature hedging. There is significant scope and space to install a swimming pool in the grounds if desired. Next to the garden cottage is a private garden with a mature walnut tree and fruit trees which provides a tranquil and attractive second garden. In addition a third area of the garden has been landscaped for ball games.

Places of interest
About Us Roderick Thomas is an entirely independent firm with decades of experience selling and letting residential property. The firm has offices in Wells, Somerton and Castle Cary and covers a wide geographical area. The focus is to deliver a high level of service to clients to achieve the best sale or rental possible within a set timescale. The importance of widespread advertising and effective marketing is recognised and with each property, an individual campaign is planned. Having attracted buyers the next stage is negotiation and the firm prides itself on securing an agreement on the best terms and then progressing the sale to completion. Ongoing discussion with all parties including solicitors ensures an agreed timetable is maintained and hitches are anticipated when possible and addressed with action taken if necessary. Focusing fully on sales and letting and not being burdened with “head office” costs Roderick Thomas is able to offer highly competitive commission rates on all agency terms. These include: Sales SOLE SELLING RIGHTS – one agent is instructed to sell a property and a commission is paid to the agent on completion of the sale. JOINT AGENCY – two (occasionally more) agents are instructed. They work in conjunction and share the commission on completion. The rate is usually higher than the sole agency. MULTI-AGENCY – two (or occasionally more) agents are instructed. They work in competition and only the agent who sells receives a commission on completion. Again this is usually at a higher rate than sole agency (but not always). All prospective sellers are invited to contact Roderick Thomas to discuss the sale of any property. Lettings We offer landlords a full residential lettings service covering every aspect of the market. This includes finding tenants and agreeing terms and this can be extended to include rent collection and full management if required. Each case is assessed individually to suit a client's needs. Our services are transparent and clearly stated. About You Above are details “about us” and our service. However, this is really about you. We try to make it as easy as possible for you to search for the right type of property in the right area and in the right price range. We very much hope it works for you. Call us now on the number displayed or press the Contact Agent button- we look forward to hearing from you.
