Description

19 PRIORYGATE COURT, CASTLE CARY, BA7 7HT

An impressive 4-5 bedroom townhouse, presented to immaculate standards throughout, set within a prime position within the centre of Castle Cary. 

The property features stylish and contemporary accommodation, including a reception hall, an open-plan ground floor layout with a sitting room, kitchen and dining room, utility, a ground floor shower room, four double bedrooms, two en-suites, a study/fifth bedroom and a family bathroom.

There is off-street parking and a fully landscaped rear garden set beneath the handsome backdrop of the former St. Johns Priory. 

Accommodation
A striking contemporary family home occupying a wonderful position within the former gardens and grounds of the Priory, one of Castle Cary’s landmark buildings, whilst being just a short walk from the town centre and its excellent range of amenities.

Constructed in 2020 and subsequently benefiting from the remainder of its NHBC warranty, the property combines modern design with practical family living. Built of brick and cedar cladding with aluminium-clad windows and doors, the house offers light, spacious accommodation with an excellent flow throughout.

The front door opens into a generous entrance hall with a turning staircase rising to the first floor. From here, there is access to a downstairs shower room and double doors opening into the impressive open-plan kitchen/living/dining room. A particular feature of this space is its dual aspect design with doors opening directly onto the gardens, creating a wonderful connection between inside and out. The kitchen is fitted with contemporary units and integrated appliances, whilst a separate utility room provides additional storage and plumbing for white goods.

The first floor features notably high ceilings with glazed panels allowing natural light to flood the landing area. There are four main bedrooms, two of which benefit from stylish en-suite shower rooms, and three are fitted with surprisingly spacious wardrobes. The remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. The family bathroom has a bath, separate shower, basin, WC and heated towel rail. Completing the first floor, there is a study which could equally be used as the fifth bedroom, and a large linen cupboard which is accessible from the landing.

Outside
The property is approached via a paved pathway leading to the front entrance with off-road parking in front of the house for two cars. 

Since construction, the current owners have thoughtfully landscaped the gardens to create attractive and usable outdoor spaces surrounding the house. The gardens wrap around the front, side and rear of the property and include areas of lawn, raised planted borders, paved seating terraces and natural stone walling, providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond the garden walls there is a neatly maintained Laurel hedgerow, over which is a lovely view up to the Priory. 

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.

Management company: There is an annual service charge of £30, which goes towards the maintenance of the private road and borders leading up to the house.

P.S. 
A few extra comments
Mortgages – we can help. 
Bridging loans – We can help.
Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.
Sometimes, we can negotiate an agreement that suits both sellers and buyers.
Sometimes, a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
