3 Coombe Close, Castle Cary, Somerset, BA7 7HJ

A substantial 2-3 bedroom detached bungalow occupying a beautifully private and convenient position, within easy walking distance of Castle Cary High Street.

The spacious accommodation includes an entrance hall, a generous sitting room, kitchen, dining room, utility room, cloakroom, two double bedrooms, a third bedroom/garden room, and a shower room.

The property stands centrally within its own gardens, surrounded by mature, well-established gardens. There is also driveway parking and a garage.

Accommodation

3 Coombe Close is a particularly spacious detached bungalow, quietly positioned within a private corner plot at the end of this established cul-de-sac, within easy reach of Castle Cary town centre and its amenities.

A wide central hallway with herringbone-style flooring provides a welcoming entrance with storage, and connects the principal rooms.

The sitting room is a generous and particularly light reception space, measuring 18 feet in length and enjoying a large westerly facing window looking out to the garden. Adjoining the sitting room, there is a garden room which has previously been used as a third bedroom.

There is a separate dining room positioned alongside the kitchen, providing a comfortable space for everyday dining and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, with space for the usual appliances, and connects to a useful utility room. Beyond is a cloakroom with a WC and wash hand basin, together with ramped access to the parking and into the attached garage.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles, with the larger measuring almost 12 feet square and incorporating fitted storage. They are served by a centrally positioned shower room with a shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC.

The accommodation is larger and more versatile than many comparable bungalows in the area, with the dining room also offering potential use as an occasional third bedroom or study if required.

Outside

The gardens are a particularly impressive feature, wrapping around the bungalow and creating an excellent sense of space and privacy.

The principal garden enjoys a sunny westerly aspect and is beautifully established, with a colourful variety of mature shrubs and planting. Several seating areas provide attractive places to enjoy the garden throughout the day, whether in the sun or shade.

A private driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the single garage.

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 several traditional shops and boutiques within the Conservation Area, and 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 on the grounds of a Georgian country estate. The estate has a Hotel & Spa, a Farm shop, restaurants and a 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.

A few extra comments

Mortgages – we can help.

Bridging loans – We can help.

Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.

Sometimes, we can negotiate an agreement that suits both sellers and buyers.

Sometimes, a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
