Description

THE OLD COW BARN, CLANVILLE, CASTLE CARY, SOMERSET, BA7 7PQ

An exceptional barn conversion set within a short drive of Castle Cary town centre, with 2.5 acres of grounds and nearly 4,000sq.ft. of internal accommodation. 

The Old Cow Barn has stunning interiors with accommodation including a kitchen dining living room, sitting room, utility, boot room, four double bedrooms and three bathrooms. In addition, there is a substantial first floor area which has immense scope to convert. 

Outside there is extensive parking, a large storage container, fully landscaped gardens and terraces all looking out over the meadowland paddock. In all the gardens and grounds total 2.5 acres.  

Accommodation
Set within an idyllic green pocket on the outskirts of Castle Cary, this outstanding four-bedroom barn conversion offers an exceptional blend of style, comfort, and space—enjoying approximately 2.5 acres of private land, including residential garden and pasture.

The property has been meticulously designed to reflect modern living standards while retaining a nod to its agricultural roots. From the moment you step inside, the quality of finish is unmistakable. A bright and airy open-plan layout defines the heart of the home, with expansive glazing bathing the interiors in natural light.

The kitchen/diner is a standout feature—fitted with bespoke cabinetry, sleek quartz worktops, and premium integrated appliances, including an induction hob with concealed extractor. Bi-folding doors open directly onto the garden, extending the living space outdoors and drawing in uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape.

Adjacent lies a generous main living room, overlooking the garden and framed by contemporary finishes throughout. The property benefits from underfloor heating powered by an efficient air source heat pump system, complemented by an internal MVHR ventilation setup and rainwater harvesting system for sustainable living.

Three spacious double bedrooms are located on the ground floor, two of which enjoy their own en suite bathrooms—each finished to a high standard with stylish fittings. A further ground-floor room currently serves as a home gym but offers scope for use as an additional bedroom or study depending on the buyer’s requirements.

A well-equipped utility room offers further storage and functionality, ideal for day-to-day family living.

Upstairs, the converted loft room is a flexible, sizeable space—currently without a window, so not officially classed as a bedroom—but with plumbing in place, it could easily be adapted into a bathroom and used as a fifth bedroom (STPP), home cinema, or office.

Outside
Externally, the grounds extend to approximately 2.5 acres, including around 1 acre of beautifully maintained residential garden and parking and a further 1.5 acres of level pasture—perfect for equestrian use or small-scale hobby farming. The garden enjoys a peaceful southerly aspect and is perfectly suited for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the surrounding countryside.

Accessed via a secure electric gated driveway, this home offers a true sense of privacy and security, all while being just a two-minute drive to Castle Cary town centre and train station—offering the best of both rural charm and accessibility.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a modern country home that delivers in style, scale, and location—presented to the market with no onward chain.

About the area
Clanville is a small hamlet, set a short distance west of the market town of Castle Cary. The hamlet benefits from a lovely community, and extremely easy access to the local railway station.  

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 are a Hotel & Spa, Farm shop, restaurants and 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.
