Six Acres is a fine family house situated in the much sought after area of Brew Valley just a stone’s throw from fashionable Bruton. Set in the heart of the Somerset countryside, this delightful family home sits entirely in its own land and comes with sensational views of King Alfred's Tower. Originally three cottages, the property was converted in the 1980s and further extended in recent years. It now offers flexible and versatile accommodation in just under 3000 sq. ft. of living space.



The house is approached via a pretty gravelled driveway with parking for several cars. Off the hall is a snug/library that follows through to the sitting room and a beautiful kitchen at the heart of the house. The sitting room features triple aspect windows that allow natural light to flood in and a jet master fire set on some fabulous flagstones warms the room. French doors at the far end of the room open to a pretty terrace with magical views of the garden. The snug has built in wall to ceiling shelving and stairs that lead to the first floor. This room could easily be opened up and combined with the kitchen if desired. The kitchen itself is furnished with a Britannia range cooker with a gas hob, integrated appliances that include a Neff dishwasher, microwave and a plate warmer. Recessed lighting illuminates an extensive range of kitchen units and a pretty island in the centre of the room. Adjacent and perfectly sited is a good sized utility room with direct access to the garden.



Upstairs is a palatial principle bedroom suite and a spacious home office and an ensuite. The bedroom is fabulous and comes with an engineered oak floor, skylight windows and French doors that open to a timber clad balcony with sensational views of the garden and the rolling countryside beyond – King Alfred’s tower can be seen in the winter.



Doors from the hall open to the West wing of the house that could be used as a self-contained annexe if required. There are two good sized double bedrooms on the ground floor and stairs that lead to two further bedrooms upstairs – there is also a bathroom on each floor. All the rooms upstairs are defined by some magnificent beams that straddle the ceilings and run to the apex of the ceiling. The bathrooms are contemporary in style and come with high end fixtures and fittings with his and hers sinks, a heated towel rail and an oversized shower.



Outside

Picturesque gardens lie mainly to the East of the property and extend to approximately 0.75 of an acre. Well-kept lawns sweep away to post and rail fencing that sits beneath a canopy of mature trees on the boundary. A ‘kitchen garden’ South facing and sheltered by a substantial hedge is a perfect sun trap on a summer’s day. A beautiful Ceanothus tree lights up the north side of the house whilst a pretty, seasoned stone terrace, embellished with some lovely roses lies just beyond the sitting room and is perfect for outdoor entertaining. The landscape is peppered with a wide variety of trees that include oak, cherry, greengage and plum, and a small pond is home to newts and other wildlife. The views are stunning from all parts of these picturesque gardens which offer total privacy and seclusion.



Beyond the gardens is a well-kept paddock that stretches to approximately 0.75 acres. Three stables offer the perfect opportunity for equestrian activities and can be accessed directly from the road. Planning permission has been granted for a single storey dwelling situated in the paddock.Also accessed from the road is a 4.5 acre field.



Other facilities in the garden include a polytunnel and a greenhouse - closer to the house, there is a generous double garage and a useful garden shed ideal for storing machinery etc.
