Dating from the late 20th century, Hill House is a well-proportioned family house built of pale composite stone under a slate roof. It has an east-west axis and is set in a good-sized garden, has ample parking and backs onto and overlooks miles of unspoilt countryside. It has a wonderful feeling of light open space with a central reception hall, fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room and two generously sized reception rooms.

Upstairs are five bedrooms, of which one currently serves as an office plus two bath/shower rooms. The bedrooms all have far-reaching views and the main bedroom has its own, ensuite shower room.

Hill House is approached via a tarmac driveway that leads to a sizeable tarmac parking area in front of the house with space for several cars. The garden is designed to be easily maintained and consists of a lawn that extends out from the house to effectively surround it. A wide, deep paved terrace extends out from the southern end of the house providing a lovely spot for entertaining and outside dining in fine weather.

Agent's Note: Hill House shares use of the access drive for part of its length with the adjacent Old Vicarage and similarly with a footpath. Hill House (and Wayside adjacent) form part of a wider property disposal of the former Bruton School for Girls property at Sunny Hill all held in the same
ownership.


Bruton town centre 1 mile, Castle Cary 3.5 miles (direct train to London Paddington 90 minutes), A303 5.5 miles, Junction 23 (Bridgwater) M5 27 miles, Bristol Airport 30 miles, Exeter Airport 55 miles. (Distances and times approximate).

Hill House is positioned at the southernmost point of Bruton, a charming and artistically inclined community known for its close-knit and welcoming atmosphere, as well as its vibrant creative scene. The lively high street in Bruton boasts an array of establishments, including a florist, a pharmacy, and a diverse range of boutiques. In close proximity, you'll find the acclaimed dining destinations at the Chapel and Osip, along with the world-renowned Hauser and Wirth art gallery. A short journey to the
west leads to the picturesque market town of Castle Cary, offering an assortment of independent shops, pubs, retail outlets, and a bookshop.

Nearby attractions encompass the highly esteemed county estate, The Newt, and the captivating Stourhead gardens, cared for by the National Trust. If you seek further shopping and recreational opportunities, Bath, Frome and Yeovil are all accessible within an hour's drive. Travel connections are convenient, thanks to easy access to the A303, linking London to the West Country. Additionally, the rail network offers excellent connectivity, with trains from Bruton to Waterloo and Castle Cary to
Paddington, ensuring travel times of less than two hours. Education options abound in the surrounding area, with renowned institutions such as King's Bruton and the state boarding school, Sexey's, providing outstanding learning opportunities. For younger children, Sunnyhill Nursery is conveniently
