About
A spacious and well-proportioned two bedroom detached bungalow, situated in the sought-after village of South Brewham, just three miles from the vibrant town of Bruton.
Nestled in the heart of this charming rural community, the property enjoys views over adjoining fields and offers an appealing blend of peace, privacy, and potential.
Occupying a generous plot, the bungalow provides excellent scope for extension - either into its existing footprint or, subject to the necessary planning consents, by adding a first floor to create a larger family home.
Currently, the accommodation is comfortable and well laid out, featuring oil-fired central heating and double-glazed windows.
The front door opens into a wide, welcoming hallway with a hatch giving access to a large loft space.
To the right, a light and airy sitting room enjoys views across the village and surrounding countryside, with an attractive natural stone open fireplace providing a lovely focal point.
At the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room offers plenty of space for a table and is fitted with a range of units, an eye-level oven, and inset hob.
A useful rear lobby provides access to a WC, storage cupboard, and the gardens/driveway.
Off the main hallway are two double bedrooms, both with fitted double wardrobes, along with a modern bathroom Outside, Scotts Retreat enjoys an elevated position, with the front garden sloping down to a mature laurel hedge.
The driveway provides ample parking for several cars and leads to a detached garage with an adjoining car port.
Although the rear garden is not especially deep, it is wide, very private, and enjoys a sunny aspect — ideal for outdoor relaxation.
Areas of lawn extend to both sides of the property, offering plenty of scope for keen gardeners or those wishing to further landscape the space.
A small garden room provides a sheltered area to enjoy afternoon tea.
In summary, while some areas would benefit from updating, Scotts Retreat presents an exciting opportunity to extend and modernise, creating a truly delightful home in a wonderful rural setting just moments from Bruton.
