5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Church Walk, Bratton Seymour BA9

Unexpectedly back on the market with no onward chain and competitively priced for a quick sale, Bratton House is a characterful country home extending to approximately 3,800 sq ft.

Originally converted from an 1868 Manor House, which later formed part of a Quaker school, this impressive residence occupies an elevated position with far-reaching countryside views towards Stourhead Forest and across to Shaftesbury.

Approached via a private tree-lined driveway bordered by landscaped gardens, the property offers extensive parking in front of the main entrance. The house is perfectly positioned to make the most of the stunning views and is flooded with natural light thanks to its dual aspect and generously proportioned rooms. As the property is not listed, buyers have the flexibility to personalise the accommodation to suit their own needs.

Over the past seven years, the current owners have lovingly transformed the property, undertaking a comprehensive structural renovation that included the addition of a grand entrance hall and a self-contained apartment. Set within a small and peaceful hamlet, Bratton House offers a wonderful sense of privacy while retaining the reassurance of a nearby community.

Residents enjoy access to a range of communal facilities, including a heated outdoor swimming pool and tennis court, all set within attractive shared grounds.

Arranged over four floors, the main house provides generous and versatile living space with five bedrooms, high ceilings and a wealth of period features. A self-contained one-bedroom apartment on the lower ground floor offers excellent flexibility for extended family, guest accommodation or potential rental income.

The grounds also include a converted horse box, currently used as guest accommodation and available by separate negotiation.

Combining history, character and versatile accommodation with an enviable rural setting, Bratton House is a remarkable home offering space, privacy and countryside living.
