2 Bed Detached House, Kale Street, BA4

This 2 bedroom cottage was once a 17th Century Cider House but has now been beautifully converted. It is situated in the grounds of Grade Two listed house in the charming village of Batcombe. Please note this property is not suitable for cats! One dog would be fine (as long as chicken and rabbit friendly).

Batcombe is 2.5 miles from Bruton, with a great selection of restaurants, shops and places to visit (see ) The newly opened Hauser and Wirth Gallery and The Chapel Bar and Restuarant, for example. Bruton is also the nearest train station, on the Bath - Weymouth Line.  There is also a mainline railway station at Castle Cary (6 miles) with services to London (Paddington). From Gillingham (15 miles) trains run to Waterloo taking approximately 2 hours. The town of Frome is 7 miles away, which is building a reputation for its regular artisan craft and produce markets and variety of independent shops.

Batcombe is a friendly village in a beautiful valley in an area of outstanding natural beauty. A haven for dogwalkers and horse riders. There is a Grade One listed church, children's playground, an award winning pub (The Three Horseshoes) and a large Jubilee Hall with a lively calender of events. The Cider House is under 5 minutes walk from all these facilities, lying at the heart of the village, but still very peaceful and quiet.  

The property itself is built into a hill and the main access is onto the first floor, though there is also secondary access from Kale Street if preferred. There is a newly installed open plan kitchen with an oven, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge with small freezer, all of which are in great working condition.  The kitchen leads to more open plan living space with oak flooring throughout. from the kitchen there are tri-fold doors to a patio/garden where table and chairs can be set up in Summer. There are carpeted stairs down to 2 double bedrooms (currently set up as a double and a twin) and a bathroom with shower- all with underfloor (Email Removed After Let) Cider House is light and airy, with beautiful exposed oak beams and mullion windows- full of character!

We have said its furnished as it has beds, a sofa, kitchen table-  happy to move some of that out but can't store it all! It has been furnished for a holiday let so the kitchen is fully equipped too.This property would really suit someone or a couple looking for a base for 6-12 months. 

Beyond the patio area, residents of the Cider House also have use of an area of lawn and off-road parking for one car.

There is a BT phone line, gas heating and underfloor heating downstairs. Tenants to cover Council Tax (Band A) gas, electricity and phone (water rates included in rent). Sky not available.

Suitable for a chicken and rabbit friendly dog but not cats as there are two Jack Russells who would never give it any peace!
