Description

11 BRIDGWATER BUILDINGS, CASTLE CARY, BA7 7DU

A charming one-bedroom terraced cottage with beautiful gardens close to Castle Cary High Street. 

11 Bridgwater Buildings is a lovely character cottage with a sitting room, kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom and attic room. 

Outside there are fabulous gardens leading down to a brook.

Accommodation
11 Bridgwater Buildings is part of a pretty terrace of cottages, each enjoying lovely gardens that gently roll down towards the mill stream at the far end. The cottages are constructed using local hadspen stone, with clay-tiled roofs. 

A porch at the front opens into the sitting room which enjoys a garden outlook and features internally including timber floorboards, and a wood-burning stove. There is shelving set within the alcoves on either side of the fireplace too. The kitchen adjoins the sitting room, and is well-appointed, having integral applicants including an electric oven, hob and fridge freezer. 

The bedroom is located on the first floor, enjoying commanding views over the gardens and mill stream. Within the bedroom, there are plenty of built-in wardrobes. The bathroom has a bath with an overhead electric shower, basin, and w/c.

Above the first floor, there is a partially converted loft room, accessible by a loft ladder, which could provide useful additional accommodation if desired. 

Outside
Opposite the terrace path by the front door, there is a pretty and well-established garden with a pathway meandering down to the stream. Either side of the path, there are lawned areas and deep flourishing borders. There is fencing on either side for privacy and plenty of room to sit and enjoy the sunshine.

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.

On the outskirts of Castle Cary is the railway station with its direct line to Paddington (20 20-minute walk) and the A303 Road link is a few miles south. There are excellent state schools in the area - Ansford Academy, within walking distance, boasts excellent exam grades and independent schools include the Sherborne and Bruton schools, Millfield, Wells Cathedral, Hazelgrove and Port Regis. Castle Cary Primary School is also within walking distance. It is worth noting too that the Hazlegrove bus stops by the front door morning and evening.
