2 bed detached house to rent

Lower Barn, Bruton BA10

Property Reference: 2917240.

A barn, not converted but re-conceived for living. Owned by a musician, it retains its

outstanding acoustics, open-plan space, and visible roof timbers. The lovely pine flooring

runs throughout. Underfloor and roof insulation, together with very thick walls, retain heat

well, supplied by the oil-fired combi boiler. Without gas, it depends on oil for heating and hot

water.

It has recently been extended with a new staircase, providing access via an attractive

suspended walkway to the gallery bedroom with an en-suite shower room. This extension

enabled the addition of large storage cupboards beneath. Below the gallery is a guest room/

study/snug, adjacent to another bathroom (with both a bath and a shower), and a small utility

area housing a washing machine and a Belfast sink.

At the West end, a new kitchen has floor and wall storage, integrated bins, a pull-out larder, a

slim-line dishwasher, a ceramic hob, and a double oven. A central butcher's block work

station, a curved breakfast bar, and access to the brick terrace make this as much a living

space as a working kitchen. The southwest-facing brick terrace, opening off the kitchen,

invites al-fresco meals in the sun.

A small outside shed offers space for plants (above) and tools and bins (below).

Hedley's Hay has independent access to its private courtyard via double gates. There is

space to park one car, and the broad grass verge outside offers off-road parking for guests. It

is largely furnished and has new curtains, but there is room for some tenant additions and

flexibility. A tenant will need to be prepared to house the grand piano.

It is, but a well-mannered (i.e., not a yapper) dog is welcome. Cats

have been killed on the road outside, so they are at greater risk.

Situated in a rural area, surrounded by fields, Hedley's Hay still has easy access to London

or the coast. Redlynch is two miles south of Bruton (a branch-line railway station to

Westbury/Bath) and approximately twelve minutes from Castle Cary (mainline to Paddington)

and twenty minutes from Gillingham (mainline to Waterloo). Berry's coaches offer two buses

a day to Hammersmith. Bruton has many restaurants, and all essentials (chemist, hardware,

small supermarkets, and a vet), and Wincanton (4 miles) has a Lidl and a Morrisons. There

are many wonderful walks nearby at Stourhead and Bruton Forest.

The landlord is seeking appreciative tenant(s) for her (and their) home, with an open-ended

periodic tenancy for the long term. For initial enquiries, it would be extremely helpful to have

details on the number of tenants, the envisaged length of tenancy, ages, and employment/

professions.
