A striking, newly built Dutch barn-style home, Bramley Barn sits in just under 2,500 sq ft of contemporary living set within around a third of an acre. The upside-down layout places an extensively glazed, arched-ceiling living, dining and kitchen on the upper floor to take full advantage of elevated countryside views, while four generous ground-floor bedrooms and a separate living room open directly onto the garden. High-quality finishes include a bespoke kitchen with Miele appliances and quartz worktops.
Designed with low running costs in mind, the house was completed in 2024 with high-spec insulation, an air source heat pump and underfloor heating. The property benefits from wide parking areas for several cars, off-street gravelled parking and planning permission for a double garage (ref 2024/1321/HSE), offering practical expansion potential. The house is approached via a shared private driveway and sits in a quiet hamlet position between Glastonbury and Castle Cary.
This is well suited to buyers seeking a rural family home with modern efficiency and generous internal and external space. Local shops and amenities are a short drive away, the Mendip Hills and many walking routes are on the doorstep, and Castle Cary station provides direct services to London. Buyers should note the property’s remoter location — daily essentials and some schools require a short drive — and that council tax banding and specific electricity tariff details are not yet confirmed.
Overall, Bramley Barn offers contemporary, energy-conscious countryside living with substantial internal volume, adaptable ground-floor accommodation and clear scope to add a garage. Its combination of elevated entertaining space and garden access from principal rooms will appeal to families and those moving from suburban settings who value privacy and views.
