Agents Note:
In 2013 around the front single storey bay window of the property, vertical fractures appeared where the brickwork of the bay meets the front elevation of the building. In addition was a horizontal fracture beneath the windowsill where the lower brickwork of the bay had dropped and moved slightly forward. Loss adjusters concluded that the cause was clay shrinkage subsidence exacerbated by the effects of neighbouring vegetation and trees.
A structural repair company carried out remedial works consisting of crack stitching of the bay externally. Removal of neighbouring vegetation was also undertaken.

Very locally is a useful Spar convenience store and petrol station. For a larger selection of town facilities, Wells and Yeovil are within easy reach. Nearby Castle Cary has the huge benefit of a mainline station with access to London Paddington as well as a selection of shops and services.
