Bruton is a small historic town in the foothills of the Brue Valley, surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside a few miles north of Castle Cary and in easy reach of Wincanton, Yeovil, Sherborne, Glastonbury, Frome, Wells and Bath. The town has a railway station, which is the Bristol-Weymouth line, with a further regular service to Bath Spa. There are also good Inter-City services at nearby Castle Cary (Paddington). Bruton dates back to Roman times and today is a charming small town with various shops and amenities, including the "The Newt in Somerset" plus ‘Hauser & Wirth’ Art & Exhibition Gallery, the 'Osip', the ever popular dining experience ‘At The Chapel’, and of course an excellent choice of schools including Bruton School for Girls, King's School, Sexey's School and Sunny Hill Prep to name a few. Other nearby schools worth mentioning are Millfield, Hazelgrove, Downside and All Hallows.

Further amenities within the town include a doctors surgery, vet, pharmacy, post office, several convenience stores, petrol station and many independent shops and cafés. The surrounding countryside is stunning with nearby national trust walks at Stourhead House and Gardens plus further pursuits at Babington House and as aforementioned The Newt gardens.

26 Quaperlake Street is an attractive Victorian semi-detached home which has recently been almost totally refurbished by the current owners. The property has sociable open-plan living spaces and sits in a fantastic location, just a minutes walk from the High Street. It would make a superb home and equally could be an ideal investment or bolt-hole in the countryside. The property is set back from the street behind a low stone wall and wrought iron railings. A pedestrian gate opens into the front garden and leads up to the front door which enters the entrance hall. Within the hall there is plenty of room to hang coats and straight ahead there is a cloakroom underneath the stairs. On the left hand side of the hall there is the sitting and dining room, an incredibly light and airy living space. There is a large front facing bay window, and a wood burning stove set into an ornate fireplace. There are further features too including picture rails, high ceilings, and painted oak floorboards.

Double doors lead into the kitchen which has been totally updated with shaker style units, a mid-level electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher and plumbing for a washer drier. There are herringbone style tiled splash-backs, slate floor tiles and modern rustic style pendant lighting. Doors lead out to the garden from both the kitchen and dining areas. Upstairs there are two large double bedrooms, both enjoying built-in wardrobes. The bedroom at the front has a newly upgraded en-suite shower room and the room to the rear has a novel study space/play room leading off. This room is ideal for children due to the more cosy den-like feel given by the restricted head height. Also on this floor there is a well-appointed main bathroom with a bath, overhead shower, basin and w/c.

At the back of the house there is a larger than average back garden which is partially walled and laid to a mixture of lawn and patio. In addition there are several raised beds and a greenhouse, already established for growing vegetables within. At the top of the garden there is a further seating area underneath a pergola, ideal for taking in the evening sun. Adjacent to this seating area there is a workshop which connects onto the garage. The garage has an electric door and could provide off-street parking or indeed further storage.
