Detached house for sale in Yeovil BA22, 6 Bedroom

The Property
Smallway House is a handsome Cary Stone and slate residence with extensive accommodation now requiring modernisation. Since the original construction the house has been extended and also incorporated former outbuildings. The result is a large family house with flexible accommodation making it ideal for those with a dependent relative or with older children wishing to live semi-independently.

Outside
The gardens offer excellent seclusion and privacy and comprise areas of lawn compartmentalised by established borders, trees and shrubs. There are a number of lovely mature trees. There is a screened former kitchen garden with greenhouse as well as a stone and tile cow byre now used as a machinery store, two additional garden stores and a second greenhouse. Immediately at the back of the house is the old wash house now used as a workshop. Screened from the main area of the garden is a hard tennis court and beyond again is a l-shaped field providing protection and amenity down to pasture with its own field gate access. In all the property extends to approximately 6.5 acres.

Situation
The property occupies a west facing, slightly elevated position off Smallway Lane, a tiny country lane about a mile south of Castle Cary Town centre. Castle Cary is a charming and historic market town with a good range of shops and everyday business facilities as well as a main line railway station connecting with Paddington. A number of the area’s best known maintained and independent schools are within easy motoring distance, as are the neighbouring towns of Sherborne, Wincanton, Yeovil and Shaftesbury.
