Accommodation
Castle Rise is a modern detached home positioned along a peaceful cul de sac within the historic market town of Castle Cary. The property offers over 1,500 sq. ft. of accommodation and provides excellent potential for updating and reconfiguration, subject to any necessary consents.
The house is entered via a spacious hallway, which provides access to the main living areas. On the left, a generous dual aspect sitting room enjoys excellent levels of natural light and opens out onto the rear garden through sliding patio doors. Adjacent to this is a formal dining room, ideal for entertaining.
The kitchen is located at the rear of the house and could easily be reimagined as a modern, open plan family space. A useful utility room sits alongside, with access to the garden. A downstairs WC completes the ground floor layout.
On the first floor, there are four well sized double bedrooms, each offering scope for individual styling. The principal bedroom overlooks the garden and benefits from an en suite shower room. A family bathroom with both a bath and a shower serves the remaining rooms.
The property is currently vacant and offered with no onward chain, allowing for a straightforward transaction. While the interiors would benefit from a scheme of cosmetic improvement, the generous proportions and practical layout make this an ideal opportunity for families, downsizers, or investment purchasers alike.

To the front of the property is a driveway providing off street parking for several vehicles, along with a detached double garage offering storage or workshop potential.
The rear garden is designed for ease of maintenance, primarily laid to gravel and paving, with a variety of mature shrubs and planting. The space is private, enclosed, and offers the potential to create a charming outdoor retreat with minimal upkeep.
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.
