Summary: Shutes End is a truly unique early 19th-century former Schoolroom and Village Library, benefiting from a mix of traditional features and quirky, inspirational interiors. Internally the property comprises four double bedrooms (one en-suite), a kitchen/breakfast room, a dining room, an enormous living room (formerly the village reading room), and a large family bathroom with a free-standing claw foot tub. As well as this, within the extensive gardens, there is a separate outbuilding with a fifth bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom, which would be ideal for an au-pair, live-in nanny, elderly relative or just a great home office.
Location: The popular village of Kilmersdon has been a sought-after location for years and is perhaps best known for its famous ‘Jack and Jill Hill’, said by locals to have been the inspiration for the nursery rhyme. There is an excellent primary school within the village and several good secondary schools such as Norton Hill Academy within the local area. Railway connections at Frome and Westbury for London Paddington and Warminster and Gillingham for London Waterloo. Communication links are excellent, with Bath and Bristol within commuting distance and the A303, A36 & M4 & M5 all within easy reach. The beautiful Somerset countryside provides a variety of leisure pursuits. Nearby is the village of Mells, offering a primary school, a public house of excellent reputation and a local Post Office/shop. The well-known Babington House is just a 20-minute walk or 2 miles by car, and the market town of Frome is within a short drive.
Available for a short (30 day max) let, from June 20th.
