1 BROCK COURT, CASTLE CARY, SOMERSET, BA7 7JX
A charming and surprisingly spacious three bedroom home in this exclusive courtyard development, close to the centre of Castle Cary.The accommodation includes an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility, w/c, three double bedrooms, one en-suite and a family bathroom. Outside there is parking, a garage and a private rear garden.
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 "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.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.
Accommodation
Brock Court is a neatly tucked away courtyard development of converted barns, completed in the 1990s, on the North Eastern side of Castle Cary. There is a lovely sense of community within the close. The High Street is within very easy reach, just a few minutes walk away. 1 Brock Court sits centrally within the courtyard with attractive Cary stone elevations under a tiled roof.The front door enters the entrance hall where there is a w/c and access into the kitchen, dining room and sitting rooms. The sitting room is a well proportioned living room with plenty of light flooding in though the glass panelled doors which look out to the garden. There is an exposed timber ceiling beam and a fireplace with inset wood burner and timber mantel. The dining room adjoins the sitting room with a large doorway connecting the two rooms. On the back wall of the dining room is the exposed stud work which gives a great feeling of character within the room.
*
The kitchen is a good sized room in need of some updating but with plenty of cupboards and ample granite-effect worktop space. There is an electric hob plus a midlevel oven and grill. There is an integrated fridge freezer and a space within the units provides room for a dishwasher. The utility is accessed from the kitchen and has room for washing machine, further units and a second sink too. The staircase rises from the hall to the first floor. Underneath, there are two sizeable cupboards, perfect for coats and boots and vacuums. The master bedroom is of a considerable size, being some 22' wide. There is a walk in cupboard for clothes storage and an en-suite bathroom. The other two bedrooms are both comfortable doubles and are serviced by the main family bathroom which requires some modernisation and currently has a bath with overhead shower, basin and w/c.
Outside
At the entrance to the courtyard is the garage and visitor parking. The garage has an up and over door, plus light and power. Between the house and garage is a neatly maintained communal area with landscaped flower beds and lighting for safe access to the property. The private garden sits at the back of the house and is mainly laid to lawn with high hedgerows and a pretty birch tree. Also within the garden, there are beautiful hydrangea and buddleja bushes full of vibrant flowers; and a garden shed.
Services
Mains gas, water, drainage and electricity. Broadband connectivity.

About this agent
About Us Roderick Thomas is an entirely independent firm with decades of experience selling and letting residential property. The firm has offices in Wells, Somerton and Castle Cary and covers a wide geographical area. The focus is to deliver a high level of service to clients to achieve the best sale or rental possible within a set timescale. The importance of widespread advertising and effective marketing is recognised and with each property, an individual campaign is planned. Having attracted buyers the next stage is negotiation and the firm prides itself on securing an agreement on the best terms and then progressing the sale to completion. Ongoing discussion with all parties including solicitors ensures an agreed timetable is maintained and hitches are anticipated when possible and addressed with action taken if necessary. Focusing fully on sales and letting and not being burdened with “head office” costs Roderick Thomas is able to offer highly competitive commission rates on all agency terms. These include: Sales SOLE SELLING RIGHTS – one agent is instructed to sell a property and a commission is paid to the agent on completion of the sale. JOINT AGENCY – two (occasionally more) agents are instructed. They work in conjunction and share the commission on completion. The rate is usually higher than the sole agency. MULTI-AGENCY – two (or occasionally more) agents are instructed. They work in competition and only the agent who sells receives a commission on completion. Again this is usually at a higher rate than sole agency (but not always). All prospective sellers are invited to contact Roderick Thomas to discuss the sale of any property. Lettings We offer landlords a full residential lettings service covering every aspect of the market. This includes finding tenants and agreeing terms and this can be extended to include rent collection and full management if required. Each case is assessed individually to suit a client's needs. Our services are transparent and clearly stated. About You Above are details “about us” and our service. However, this is really about you. We try to make it as easy as possible for you to search for the right type of property in the right area and in the right price range. We very much hope it works for you.
