A distinguished five bedroom detached residence of mock period elegance, offering expansive light-filled accommodation with high ceilings, stone-mullioned windows and generous gardens. Set in an elevated position with sweeping driveway, garage and countryside views, the property provides superb potential for refinement.

The Dwelling - Commanding an elevated position, this exceptional five bedroom detached residence boasts a formal approach and stands proudly within its generous wraparound gardens. Designed with an air of mock-period grandeur, the property showcases elegant proportions with soaring ceilings, handsome stone-mullioned windows and a wealth of expansive, light-filled rooms. Whilst now in need of refurbishment, the property presents an excellent opportunity for discerning buyers to impart their own style and create a truly bespoke home. Offering both impressive scale and character, it provides outstanding potential to tailor the accommodation to individual taste.

Accommodation - Entered via an entrance hall with cloakroom, the property opens into a reception hall from which the principal ground floor rooms are accessed, with a staircase rising elegantly to the first floor. The dining room and living room both enjoy dual aspects with delightful views over the gardens, each enhanced by feature fireplaces, while a light-filled conservatory between them provides direct access onto the terraced patio. To the rear, the kitchen offers excellent proportions with ample space for dining and entertaining, well-suited to modern family living. The utility room and adjoining storage are accessed directly from the kitchen, with a secondary door providing practical rear access to the gardens. The layout is further complemented by the rare advantage of two staircases from the hall, providing dual access to the first floor.

The first floor is approached via a spacious galleried landing, which provides an excellent sense of light and scale, together with useful storage. From here, five generously proportioned double bedrooms are accessed, several of which benefit from built in storage.

Garden - The property is set proudly at the heart of its wraparound gardens, occupying a generous and well balanced plot. A sweeping gravelled driveway provides an attractive approach and leads to a garage. The principal lawn lies on a level terrace beneath the house, seamlessly accessed from the adjoining patio, creating a delightful space for outdoor entertaining. The gardens are framed by mature trees and established shrubbery, affording a high degree of privacy with far-reaching views across the Blackmore Vale countryside. To the rear, a number of neatly positioned outbuildings provide useful storage.

Situation - The property occupies an elevated position on Gason Lane, one of the most desirable addresses in the sought-after village of Queen Camel. The village itself offers a thriving community with a church, primary school, shop, and pub, and lies just seven miles north of Yeovil.

A wide range of day-to-day amenities can be found in the nearby towns of Yeovil and Wincanton, including supermarkets, leisure facilities, and healthcare. The area is particularly well served for education, with highly regarded local primary schools as well as excellent secondary and independent options, including Sherborne School, Sherborne Girls, Hazelgrove, and Millfield.

The historic market town of Sherborne is close by, famed for its abbey, castle and characterful architecture. It offers excellent schools, independent shops, cafés and restaurants.

Queen Camel is surrounded by unspoilt countryside, yet enjoys excellent connectivity via the A303. Mainline rail links are available from Sherborne to London Waterloo and from Castle Cary to London Paddington, making the location ideal for both family life and commuting.
