Property description
1 Brue Avenue presents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a spacious detached family home in the sought after town of Bruton. The property is located within easy reach of the High Street and all the local amenities, and is within catchment for the highly regarded Sexey’s School. This much-loved home has been cherished by the same family for the past 17 years.
To the front, the property offers off-road parking for two vehicles alongside a lawned front garden and hedge providing privacy. Stepping inside, the entrance hall provides a welcoming sense of space with a useful cupboard for coats and boots. The dual-aspect sitting room is light-filled with plenty of seating space and a feature electric fireplace. This room flows seamlessly into the dining room. With French doors opening directly onto the patio the dining room is a bright and versatile space ideal for entertaining or family life. Beyond lies a utility area, downstairs cloakroom, and a recently fitted contemporary kitchen (installed July 2024) with a breakfast bar and garden outlook.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to three generous double bedrooms and a well-sized single bedroom – perfect for family, guests, or a home office. There is a modern family bathroom with shower over bath. The loft, which is partly boarded, offers additional storage.
The rear garden is a good size and mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and bordered by fencing and hedges. A paved patio area offers the perfect spot for summer dining, while an area of hard standing at the garden’s end provides scope for a home office or studio. The garden can also be accessed via a side path from the front of the property. The single garage, where the newly installed (Aug 2025) boiler is located, provides further storage or parking.
With its generously proportioned rooms, recent updates, and potential for further improvements, this delightful home offers buyers the chance to create their own mark in a desirable location.
