Bratton Hill Cottage is a beautifully proportioned three-bay country house built of forest marble, the stone on which the village of Bratton Seymour is founded.
Its broad Georgian sash windows light the high ceiling rooms and look out to panoramic views over the Somerset fields surrounding. The house sits well within its private cottage style garden with open terrace lawn to the north and a mixed fruit orchard to the south. The stone cobbled and hoggin driveway can accommodate several cars. Internally the ground floor of smooth blue lias flagstones features a bespoke solid wood shaker style kitchen and well equipped utility room. Adjoining is a large open plan family room with double doors leading onto the garden terrace, as well as a separate snug drawing room with a traditional open fireplace. A cutting edge glazed garden room links the house back to the hill, enclosing a vast and bright living space with direct access to the garden through retractable glass walls. On the first floor, the three generous double bedrooms have beautiful English oak floor boards, traditional panelled wood shutters to the windows and high vaulted ceilings well lit with rooflights. Each is appointed with a superbly finished ensuite bathroom featuring marble floors, painted timber panelling and the highest quality brushed nickel bathroom fittings. This charming period style home has all the integrity and craft of a historic property alongside the comforts of modern construction including under floor heating throughout, brand new plumbing systems and high energy efficiency.In all approximately 0.51 of an acre.
