Description

6 COMPTON DRIVE, ANSFORD, CASTLE CARY, SOMERSET, BA7 7FT

An attractive modern detached home, conveniently situated within easy walking distance of Castle Cary's High Street. 

Offering light and well-presented accommodation, including an entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen dining room, three double bedrooms, one en-suite, and a family bathroom.

In addition, there is an enclosed rear garden, driveway parking and a single garage. 

Further benefits include recent improvements and approximately four years remaining on the NHBC warranty.

Accommodation
An attractive modern detached home, built in 2020, offering well-proportioned and naturally light accommodation arranged over two floors. The property has been recently decorated and benefits from a number of improvements, including new carpeting to the sitting room and principal bedroom in March 2026. There is also approximately four years remaining on the NHBC warranty.

The entrance hall provides a welcoming reception, with tiled flooring and useful built-in storage, together with access to the ground floor cloakroom. From here, the accommodation leads through to the principal living spaces.

The sitting room is a particularly light and comfortable room, enjoying good natural light and French doors opening onto the rear garden. There is ample space for seating and the room further benefits from a bespoke media wall with integrated shelving and discreet, concealed storage.

The kitchen/dining room provides a practical space for both everyday living and dining. It is fitted with a range of wall and base units, generous work surface space and a ceramic sink. Integrated appliances include a double oven, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. A useful utility area provides additional space for a tumble dryer.

Stairs rise to the first floor, where there are three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from newly fitted carpeting and a recently updated en-suite shower room. The remaining two bedrooms are served by a separate family bathroom, fitted with a bath and shower.

Further storage is available within the loft, which is accessed via a fold-down ladder and is partially boarded, with lighting.

Outside
To the rear is an enclosed, private and low-maintenance garden, which has been improved by the current owners to include an extended patio area, providing a pleasant space for outdoor seating and dining. 

To the front, there is a small landscaped garden, with driveway parking leading to a single garage, which benefits from power and lighting.

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.

A few extra comments
