OUTSIDE
Approached from Queen Street, Fairview offers extensive off-road parking to both the front and side, leading to an attached double garage. There is an established garden at the front, with the house set back from the road, mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs, borders and hedging.
The double garage provides excellent storage and has light, power, side access, an up-and-over door to the front and a further garage door to the rear, allowing vehicular (and ride-on mower) access to the back of the property. The boiler for the gas-fired central heating is located in the garage, which was newly installed in November 2024 with a 10-year warranty.
One of the main selling points of this wonderful detached property is the remarkable garden and adjoining paddock to the rear. Enjoying an impressive 0.92 acre plot, the outside space at Fairview is perfect for families with children and indeed those green-fingered purchasers who seek space to landscape as they wish.
Directly behind the house is a patio seating area, part of which is covered and is a superb space for entertaining. The garden itself is level and predominantly laid to lawn with developed boundaries and borders. A five-bar gate then leads into the adjoining paddock, providing buyers with much versatility. In addition, the garden offers a shed/workshop and a summerhouse.
The property is located within the popular village of Keinton Mandeville, which sits midway between the market towns of Somerton to the west and Castle Cary to the east. The village has a population of approx. 1,200 and has a local village store, a good pub and other amenities, as well as Keinton Mandeville Primary School, which is located near the centre of the village and highly regarded. The village hall is the hub of the community and regularly hosts adult education classes, Pilates, short mat bowling, Sea Scouts, Brownies and a weekly clinic. The land around Keinton Mandeville is mixed agriculture with five farms surrounding the village - two providing popular farm shops. There are also playing fields with a children’s play area, a tennis court and a skateboard park - making Keinton Mandeville a wonderfully popular and vibrant place to live. Both Castle Cary mainline railway station and the A303 are located less than six miles away, providing superb travel links within easy reach.
