Description

MAPLE HOUSE, 5 AINSTEY DRIVE, SPARKFORD VILLAGE, BA22 7JT

A spacious and beautifully positioned four-bedroom family home, set down an idyllic private lane, in this popular village close to Castle Cary.

The accommodation includes a welcoming reception hall, sitting room, kitchen, breakfast room, study, utility, cloakroom, four bedrooms, two en-suites and a family bathroom. 

There is a double garage with workshop potential and a very useful room above, which would make a perfect home office. To the rear, there is a fully enclosed and wonderfully mature garden. There is ample parking.

Accommodation
Maple House is a wonderful individually designed four-bedroom detached home, forming part on an exclusive development found in a tucked away and incredibly tranquil position. The property is situated at the end of a private no-through lane which feels incredibly rural while still being within easy reach of local amenities. In its current Autumnal state, the tree-lined approach drive is awash with colours, making it a real joy to pass through as you come and go from the property. 

From the parking area, the front door enters a lovely reception hall which is large enough to serve as an additional reception room if desired. The hall connects the main living rooms of the property, with the kitchen breakfast room, and sitting room situated at the back looking out to the garden. 

The kitchen breakfast room has an excellent range of fitted units with a brand new Smeg electric range cooker set within. There are further appliances too, including a fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. The far end of the room has room for a dining table, which is ideally positioned to take in the garden outlook through the patio glass doors. 

The sitting room is a spacious and well-proportioned room with a stone fireplace and inset wood-burning stove. In addition, there are French doors with full-height glazing on either side which open to the garden. 

Also located on the ground floor, there is a utility room, a cloakroom and a study. 

On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, all double in size, and a family bathroom. The master bedroom and guest room both enjoy the use of en-suite shower rooms and the master suite has recently been updated. There is also built-in storage in the master room too. 

The family bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower, basin, w/c, and heated towel rail. Accessed from the landing, there is an airing cupboard. 

Outside
The garden enjoys a great deal of privacy while being appropriately arranged to work for a keen gardener or someone who prefers lower maintenance. It has a lawned area and deep surrounding borders full of flowers and shrubs. 

At the front of the home, there is a gravel parking area in front of the double garage, which has two sets of up-and-over doors and internal light and power. Inside the garage, a door leads into the main house, and a back door leads outside. To the side of the garage, an external stairwell leads up to the studio/home office, which is fully insulated and has electricity and internet connectivity.

About the area
Sparkford is a well-located village between Castle Cary, Sherborne and Yeovil. The A303 is nearby, providing good access to the larger surrounding towns and London.
