Description

Property Description: Guide Price: £650,000 to £680,000. This spacious family home is set on the outskirts of the pretty village of Lovington and is surrounded by the beautiful Somerset countryside. Not only that, this property comes with its own orchard and with only one other close neighbour, this really is a true 'escape to the country' property.

Through the front door of the property is a large entrance hall with wooden flooring, that leads to all the ground floor rooms. The light and bright farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room is triple aspect and has a tiled floor making it perfect for entertaining. There are integrated appliances including a Rangemaster and dishwasher as well as fitted units and a charming island unit. Next to the open plan kitchen/breakfast room is a separate dual aspect dining room which is tastefully decorated and has a large walk in storage room attached. There is also a door to a gravelled terrace. The generous sized sitting room is also dual aspect and incorporates an open fireplace with Bath stone hearth and surround, recessed shelves and French doors to the southerly facing rear garden. There is a spacious study overlooking the garden as well as a downstairs cloakroom and a laundry/boot room that also has access to the rear of the property.

Upstairs there are four generous double bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes, as well as a single bedroom with a built in cupboard. The two large family bathrooms lead off from the main hallway and the beautifully tiled principal bathroom has a walk-in shower as well as a stand alone bath. There is a linen cupboard on the main landing as well as additional built-in storage on the inner landing area leading to the principal bedroom. This inner landing area has the potential to be converted into a dressing room for the principal bedroom.

Outside: Through a 5 bar gate at the front of the property, the driveway opens out onto a large gravel area surrounded by mature trees with plenty of room for parking. On either side of the house, there are further 5 bar gates, both of which lead to the glorious rear garden. Set on approximately 0.9 acres of land, the southerly facing rear garden has many enticing features namely the beautiful orchard of apple and fruit trees. The entire plot is bordered by countryside hedges and is comprised by a large formal lawn with a wildlife pond, a gravelled terrace area with several outbuildings and as previously mentioned, the gorgeous orchard area to the very rear of the property. On the gravelled terrace, leading out from the dining room, is a wooden gazebo fitted with a wood burner creating a cosy outdoor hosting space that is currently used as a BBQ area. Set behind a raised bed and some gorgeous rose bushes, there are two timber sheds, one of which has electricity and could be used as a studio/workshop. As well as this, there is an additional timber outbuilding further down the garden.

Location: Nestled in the beautiful open countryside near the well connected Castle Cary in Somerset, Lovington is a picturesque village that combines rural charm with convenience. The village itself has a local bakery, a primary school and a preschool, and has easy access to the A37 for Bath and Bristol.

Just under 4 miles away, the charming market town of Castle Cary also has a number of primary and secondary schools, pre-schools and nurseries as well as a range of useful amenities including a health centre, a dental practice, a vintner and a fabulous delicatessen. The town also has its own mainline railway offering direct services to London, Exeter and Bristol. In addition to this, Castle Cary is home to the well-renowned country house hotel and restaurant 'The Newt'. Other nearby attractions include the cultural wonder of Glastonbury, the Fleet Air Arm Museum, and Longleat Safari Park.
