Description

THE APARTMENT, HORSE POND HOUSE, THE TRIANGLE, CASTLE CARY, BA7 7BD

An elegant and extremely spacious (2602 sq. ft.) split level apartment, set in a prominent location within the centre of Castle Cary town, overlooking The Horsepond. 

The property has beautifully renovated accommodation set across two floors including an entrance hall, snug/study, living room, kitchen dining room, utility, cloakroom, three double bedrooms, two bathrooms and extensive storage. 

There is allocated parking for two cars (with EV-charging point) and a totally secure walled rear garden. 


Accommodation
Formerly part of the Horse Pond Inn, this property has been exquisitely refurbished and reconfigured throughout to now provide a most impressive home. West Coast developments have an impeccable track record for attention to detail, and premium finish, with this development being no exception. The former public house enjoys an impressive double-fronted facade with prominent bay windows facing over towards the horsepond itself.

The apartment is entered from the ground floor, with the front door set between the bays, and underneath a classical Georgian porch canopy. The entrance hall lead directly through to the garden, with a back door leading out. The snug/study is located on the left hand side of the porch, and if desired it could be utilised as a fourth bedroom due to the proximity of the cloakroom set within the utility adjacent. The room enjoys a lovely large bay window to the front.

The majority of the accommodation is on the first floor, which itself spans 1831 sq. ft. - comparable to a large four bedroom family home. The kitchen dining room makes the most of this space with dimensions of 27' x 15' providing ample room for the sleek kitchen island, and abundance of wall and base units, and of course room for a dining table. The island features additional storage, a continuation of the light oak worktops, and an induction hob with extractor above. Further appliances include an electric oven, fridge freezer and dishwasher. LED lighting illuminates the room during the evening, and during the day light floods in through the south facing windows which overlook the garden. Adjoining the kitchen, there is 323 sq. ft. of easily accessible storage rooms. 

Much of the first floor features stylish panelling, adding to the elegance and appeal of the property. One of the rooms enjoying this feature is the first floor living room which again is flexible enough to be used as further sleeping accommodation if desired.

There are three main double bedrooms on this floor. The master bedroom has a dressing room, and an adjoining bathroom which exudes style. The bathroom has wall tiling, a bath with separate shower, basin, w/c and a basin. In addition to the two further double bedrooms, there is a second bathroom which has a bath with over head shower, a heated towel rail, w/c, and basin. 

Outside
The walled garden to the rear is predominantly laid to lawn and fully secure. There is a large paved seating area directly outside the back door, ideal for al-fresco dining. 

By the property, parking for two cars with an EV car charging point is allocated.

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 in easy driving distance.

“The Newt in Somerset” just outside Castle Cary is home to beautiful countryside walks set in the grounds of a Georgian country estate. Within the estate, there are a Hotel & Spa, Farm shop, restaurants and house & garden shop.

Within a short walk from the property, 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.

Tenure: Leasehold
The property is currently a leasehold apartment with 999 years remaining.
