The Barn
Situated in the grounds of the house is a magnificent two-bedroom Barn (stunningly clad in larch and with glorious plain tiles that reflect those of the main house) offering ancillary accommodation or a substantial income stream as an Airbnb. Both the bedrooms are elegantly furnished and have lovely views of the garden. The luxuriously furnished bathroom has a walk-in oversized shower giving it the feel of a wet room – there is also a separate cloakroom. The living area is huge and combines beautifully with a kitchenette along one wall. Underfloor heating warms the room through wood effect tiles and concertina doors open to a pretty terrace outside. Oak beams straddle the ceiling lending the space real charm. Above the bedrooms is a mezzanine floor, an ideal space for further accommodation.
Outside
The gardens and grounds are beautiful. Immediately adjacent to the house is a timber decked terrace, ideal for al fresco entertaining in the summer months. A formal ‘garden’ in front of the house lights up the landscape with prairie planting modelled on Hauser and Wirth’s gardens. A double garage houses a pump that enhances the water pressure in the main house. A babbling brook runs beneath a fabulous dry-stone wall and gives this part of the garden real charm. The formal gardens are mostly laid to lawn and run to a post and rail fence on the near boundary. Beyond is a magnificent paddock where a variety of mature trees pepper the landscape. Of note is an agricultural barn that offers potential for conversion and development given the necessary planning consent. The paddock conveniently has its own entrance. The grounds are a haven of peace and tranquillity and come with stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
Situation
Charlton Musgrove is a popular village in the heart of Somerset and surrounded by rolling countryside, much of which has been designated an area of outstanding natural beauty. The house sits in a perfect position on the edge of the village.

The town also has a doctor’s surgery, pharmacy, vet, post office, several mini supermarkets, fuel station and numerous independent shops. Local supermarkets include Morrisons in Wincanton, Waitrose in Gillingham, and Tesco in Shepton Mallet. Other local attractions include Stourhead gardens, Babington House, The Newt country house hotel and Longleat safari park.
Schools
Excellent local independent schools include King’s School Bruton, Bruton School for Girls, and the state-owned boarding school - Sexey's. Bruton has its own primary school and in close proximity are Millfield, Hazlegrove and All Hallows prep schools.
