Like this property? Maybe you'll like these ones close by too.
The second floor is entirely occupied by the most impressive master bedroom suite. The room is large enough for a study area too, and is complemented by an en-suite shower room. There are Velux windows which take in the lovely views, particularly special when there is a good sunset.
Outside The gardens at number 44 face due west, which means they make the most of the afternoon sun and for the midday sun, there is a sun trap gravel/paved seating area to the south. The gardens are fully enclosed and predominantly laid to lawn. The entire southern boundary is adjoined by trees, giving it a sheltered and established feel, a stark contrast to the usual 'overlooked by housing' feel of many new-build properties.
At the front, there is a tarmac driveway in front of the double garage, providing ample parking. The garage has a single up-and-over door, which makes it significantly easier to park inside. Internally, there is light, power, and storage potential above.
Around the back side of the garage, there is a private path which loops into Fairfield Park.
About the area Castle Cary is described by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner, the eminent architectural historian, as Somerset's prettiest town, set in beautiful, unspoilt countryside. The town is characterised by period buildings constructed of the distinctive honey coloured stone for which the area is well known. It remains a delightful small market town with a number of traditional shops and boutiques within the Conservation Area in which a policy of strict planning control operates to prevent inappropriate development. These shops cater for most everyday needs whilst Shaftesbury, Glastonbury, Street, Wells, Frome, Wincanton, Sherborne and Yeovil are all close by and Salisbury, Taunton, Bath and Bristol are within easy driving distance.
“The Newt in Somerset” just outside Castle Cary is home to beautiful countryside walks set in the grounds of a Georgian country estate. Within the estate, there are a Hotel & Spa, Farm shop, restaurants and house & garden shop.
On the outskirts of Castle Cary is the railway station with its direct line to Paddington and the A303 Road link is a few miles south. There are excellent state schools in the area - Ansford Academy boasts excellent exam grades and independent schools include the Sherborne and Bruton schools, Millfield, Wells Cathedral, Hazelgrove and Port Regis.

Sometimes, we can negotiate an agreement that suits both sellers and buyers. Sometimes, a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress. Call us for information on any of these points.
